In the town where I was born
Lived a man who sailed to sea
And he told us of his life
In the land of submarines
So we sailed up to the sun
'Til we found a sea of green
And we lived beneath the waves
In our yellow submarine
It’s not an encouraging match up.
Pomeranz vs current NY line up is 304/370/478/848
... but what worries me more is how New York is hitting and how Pom has pitched this season.
On the bright side he has lost only 1 game in his last 5 starts vs NY and has a GmSc of 41(L), 51(W) & 54(W) in his last three starts in Yankee Stadium.
If we take this game, we win the series.
Yankees definitely have huge advantage in the pitching matchup. Hopefully Pom can at least be decent and keep Yankees offense in check.
Bad matchup on paper, ain't it? Yankee fans must be salivating. We almost need some reverse lock mojo here.
Fuck the Yankees.
I ain't ascared.

"It's also a simple and indisputable fact that WAR isn't the be-all end-all in valuations, especially in real life. Wanna know why? Because an ace in run-prevention for 120 innings means more often than not, a sub-standard pitcher covering for the rest of the IP that pitcher fails to provide. You can't see value in a vacuum when a player does not provide full-time production."
fuck severino. fuck the Yankees. contemplating driving to boogie down to insert some at game mojo.

If there was ever a game to win its tonight. This series has me nervous. Will truly show what Boston is made of. Drew can’t get off to a slow start like he has. Need at least 6 solid innings from him to have a chance. A slow start from him will kill any chance at winning.

5 of Severino's 7 starts this season have come against teams over .500 (BOS, TOR x2, LAA, HOU)
In those starts, he is 3-1 (the one loss against the Sox of course). He has averaged 6 2/3 innings per start with a 2.41 ERA and 9.9Ks per 9 innings.
Just throwing that out there for reference
