WIN METHOD - player evaluation dominance

Coming back from a whirlwind five weeks on the road.  Started with the YANKEE western swing in late May to Oakland to Anaheim to Detroit.  Interviews, interviews, interviews, the draft, and finally the College World Series.

We got everything we wanted out of this years draft.  Picking almost last each year and still coming through with some of the best baseball talent is a feather in the cap of the WIN METHOD player evaluation system.  The YANKEES since the inception and use of the WIN METHOD have been baseballs winning-est team with the most playoffs, pennants, and World Championships than any other team in baseball.  Factually, no other team comes even close.

How about this years team.  Riddled with crippling injuries, and many other lesser injuries, this team has performed admirably.  First place, with player after player stepping up and playing WIN METHOD baseball.  Winning as a team.   WINS is all that counts.

How many of you remember my special WIN METHOD selection back in 2009 of Adam Warren and his rise through the ranks?  Well, Adam is being called up by the YANKEES and will start Friday nights game in the Stadium against the Chicago White Sox.   Good luck, Adam.  Remember it's all about the WIN METHOD.

If any of you want a good laugh, you can go to several of the baseball talk forums.  Go to the the YANKEE threads and you will see just what is meant by the dumbing down of America.    Most, not all, but most posters know little to nothing about baseball, they get mired in mind numbing meaningless, worthless individual stats and when confronted whine and cry like  immature childlike fools.   The worst is, the moderators are the biggest and dumbest culprits.  When threatened and provided facts and collaborating sites they immediately demean the poster and the other valid sites.  All you can do is laugh at these brain dead losers.   These guys are in their comfort zone when they are supported by their clique of mental delinquents, but know if they come here to debate anything they will get buried by an avalanche of common sense and facts from the smartest fans in the baseball world, WIN METHOD fans.  They have no game and what game they have is losing and claiming they are the best.

In the second half of this season we will have several quality players coming back and this team will get better and better.  All the while, the youngsters picked over the last few years develop and get ripe until they are needed and ready to be picked and promoted.

6-6 after 6 in one crazy game.

Warren Hammond said...

Yankees go down 9-6. A miserable loss. Horrendous hitting when it mattered early in the game.

Sam Logan said...

What rotten loss.

Ken Sheperd said...

No way we should of lost tonight, but we did.

sid greenberg/nyc said...

We need to win, win and win again. Wake up guys, wake up. No one is going to let you win.

Eddie OConnor said...

As I watched last night game, after the first two innings with a 3-0 lead I felt we would lose.

Steve said...

Nova goes tonight and we need him to step up and throw likr he can.

Deb F said...

17-11 on 20 game run and still losing ground. Step it up guys.

Benny Pake said...

Come on Ivan, finish the season strong.

Tom Loughlin said...

Lets go Yankees.

MomanRick said...

This is the last quarter of the season and the last quarter separates the men from the boys.

Yankeeforever said...

WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BIGTIMEYANKEE said...

2-1 Ynaks after 2. All Jeter, offensively and defensively.

Stan the Man said...

Nova crash and burns. Sox up 6-2 after five. Can we come back?

Allie Singh said...

We lost again 7-3. Have lost this series and are not moving forward. we need wins.

Robert Mandell said...

Phil Hughes tonight to avoid the sweep. Come on guys, shape up.

Chen Cho said...

We can't start hoping that the chasers lose. We need to take control and WIN. Then we can't be caught.

Sharon/NC said...

Ok Phil, it's up to you to save our souls.

Linda Pardo said...

C'mon Phil, be the winner of the staff. Someone help Jeter and follow what he does.

Laura Koehler said...

Come with a win tonight.

Andy K said...

Go Phil go. Win.

sid greenberg/nyc said...

It's time for a win. And as Mel Allen would do, celebrate with A Ballantine Ale and a White Owl stogie.

Carl Hooks said...

Chicago leading 1-0 after three.

chen Cho said...

Yanks down 2-1 as they come to bat in he 9th.

Cory said...

Yanks lose 2-1. Swept and only three games in front of the Rays.

YankeeMike said...

Wow! Hopefully a day off will help.

johnsondc said...

Hughes did well, but not well enough.

Gus Papa said...

After the Chicago debacle todays off day iw very much welcomed. time to regroup and rebound headed into the last five plus weeks of the season.

Warren Hammond said...

We need to finish strong. But the chasers will make us stronger or will will be gone.

Alex Antonius said...

the race isn't over and we haven't won anything yet.

Patricia Piper said...

Hey, we can always root for the Rays to lose tonight.

Lou Lis said...

First step. Sweep the Cleveland series.

Deb F said...

When the going gets tough, the tough get going. Are we tough?

johnsondc said...

Good and bad news at the same time. Bad, Nova on the 15 day DL with rotator duff issue. Good, it may be reason he has been off his game.

Sharon/NC said...

We will deal with yet another obstacle and overcome.

Al Ashton said...

Lets start winning again.

Ravi Maragh said...

Do it Yankees.

bigbadwolf said...

Isn't it amazing that after hearing all the garbage from stat frauds that everything always comes down to wins. Come on CC, come back on a seven game win streak.

Deb F said...

I agree. As Jeter said. individual stats may make you feel good, but unless you win they don't mean anything.

Nick Polito said...

Considering all the injuries, to be where we are is a feather in the cap of the team, but they just have to seal the deal and make the playoffs.

Ted Lilly said...

Go CC.

Steve said...

3-1 Yanks after 7.

Stan the Man said...

It wasn't easy and it wasn't cleaan, but it was a win.

Giambino said...

YANKEES WIN 3-1.

AAA said...

CC, Swisher, and Jeter get it done. 3-1 Yankee win.

Eddie OConnor said...

Not an easy win but a win. Kuroda tonight to take the series.

BIGTIMEYANKEE said...

The best medicine right now is a win streak and or a .700 run over the next 20 games.

Linda Rice said...

Give us another win Hiroki.

bigbadwolf said...

I can live with 14-6 in these 20 games.

NJYANKEE said...

Kuroda has been great. Hope he continues his run.

Mike Smith said...

Lets make hay tonight, the Rays lost this afternoon. Lets go Yankees.

Stan the Man said...

Yankees down 3-1 after six. Jeter initiates the rally scoring the Yankees only run of the games as the Yankees leave the bases loaded only scoring one run.

Warren Hammond said...

Jeter starta another two out seventh inning rally with a base hit but the Yanks leave the bases loaded again. If you cona't produce WHEN it counts, you lose.

Tom Loughlin said...

3-1 Indians after 8. Yanks last chance.

Giambino said...

Yanks three up three down, Series even.

Cory said...

Last nights game was another game of how we are unable to produce when it counts all to many times this season.

YankeeMike said...

Garcia goes in this afternoons rubber game.

Victor Grandozi said...

We can't continue npt hitting WHEN it matters most and expect to win the division and or make the playoffs.

will-i-am said...

Yankees up 3-0 after 4.

Al Ashton said...

4-2 Yanks after 6 on Grandyman solo shot.

will-i-am said...

Yankees hold to a 4-2 lead after seven. Robertson in game and gets last two outs in seventh.

will-i-am said...

Soriano with a 4 out save and the Yankees win 4-2 to take the series 2 games to 1.

Chen Cho said...

Another not so pretty win, but a win. We need to get rolling.

Linda Pardo said...

At least the game wasn't at 8PM.

Zhaire said...

Rays off day and O's rained out today gives us a half game gain,

Yankeeforever said...

The lineup is still not producing the way it should and the way the team needs.

Chuck M said...

3 with Toronto, day off and 3 with Baltimore at home starting tomorrow.

Greg Petroski said...

All 162 games are important, but this is the the difference between stat frauds and WIN METHOD fans. the pressure in the upcoming games for the race to playoff spots is far more than at the beginning of the season, if only in the mind of the players.

Tom Loughlin said...

Very true Greg, very true.

Gabe Hooks said...

Lets win game one with Phelps. If only the bats would hit when it matters most.

Vinny Ferrero said...

i think many fans get complacent on just how great a defensive shortstop Jeter is.
Another great play from deep in the hole and throwing the runner out from the outfield grass. Simply, great range and the best defensive shortstop in baseball.

Andy K said...

Performing down the stretch will determine the best. Lets go guys, start performing to be the best.

Stan the Man said...

Get it done Phelps, get it done.

Quay Ho said...

Go Yankees.

Ken Shepard said...

1-1 after 3. Cano HR.

Lou Lis said...

4-1 Yanks after four. Cano with another home run.

Stan the Man said...

Yanks up 6-3 after five. Swisher with a 2 run HR.

Steve said...

Soriano gives up 3 run HR in 9th. Yanks down 7-6.

jimbo said...

Captain clutch come through. Jeter with a game tying home run. 7-7 after 9. Extra innings.

Steve said...

Lowe with a scoreless 10th. Lets win it now.

Steve said...

Lowe with a two base throwing error costs the game and Yanks lose 8-7 in 11.

jimbo said...

A horrendous loss. Wow!

Nate Berkus said...

We are doing everything wrong. Ugly.

NJYANKEE said...

Very scary, this season is very scary.

Eddie OConnor said...

I don't know if I will be able to sleep tonight.

Deb F said...

I checked the box score from last night. Yes it really did happen.

Giambino said...

Hughes for us tonight. We need to win. Got a break last night with the Rays losing but the O's gained a game.

sid greenberg/nyc said...

As an old time horse race announcer used to say 'down the stretch they come'. It's WIN METHOD time, time to separate the men from the boys.

RLA said...

A bad loss is history, we are first and we need to move on and win.

Cory said...

Get us the win Phil.

Chaz Minton said...

Wins, we need wins. Or we go home.

Allie Singh said...

Time for winning. Lets get rolling.

Linda Rice said...

Game time, make it a winner.

MomanRick said...

Swisher with a two out RBI single giving the Yankees a 1-0 lead after three.

William Mensom said...

A pure WIN METHOD run in the 4th for a 2-0 lead. Walk, take second on wild pitch, go to third on a ground out to the right side and score on a Granderson sac fly. That is how games are won.

Steve said...

Huuuuuuuuuuuuughes goes seven allowing 1 run and 4 hits. Leaves leading 2-1.

Stan the Man said...

Yanks win it 2-1. Robertson and Soriano both perfect for the hold and save. A true WIN METHOD win.

Eddie OConnor said...

Still not hitting, but a win.

BIGTIMEYANKEE said...

Now to win the series tomorrow. Wins determine the best.

johnsondc said...

Not easy, but a win with great pitching and runs worked for.

Carl Hooks said...

CC goes tomorrow and we need the win just like tonights.

Tony Gigante said...

CC keep it going. Be the ace.

Sharon/NC said...

Hey a one run win for us with great pitching and timely hitting. Do it again.

Vladimir Tinzik said...

Go CC. Score some runs guys.

AAA said...

Take the series team. Shut them down CC.

Anonymous said...

Please define the win method.

Dan Evans said...

Earn the win, take the series, and take a day off.

Kevin M said...

Lets go Yankees.

bigbadwolf said...

Hey anonymous. All you have o do is read the WIN METHOD from start to finsih. We here understand very well, I can't see why you can't.

will-i-am said...

Down 5-4 after 7.

johnsondc said...

Another horrid loss with our ace on the mound. Things are looking bad.

Laura Koehler said...

We lose again and are struggling to keep our heads above water.

bigbadwolf said...

Tomorrows day off won't hurt, but we sure need to get our ship in order.

Alex Antonius said...

It is not good when you have to hope your competition loses. We should be taking care of business with wins.

Gus Papa said...

It's simple, if we win games we can't be caught. If we lose games, we can only blame ourselves.

It's all about WINS.

Yankeeforever said...

30 games to destiny. Lets roll.

Vladimir Tinzik said...

Three games at the Stadium with the O's. Kuroda tonight. Lets sweep.

Lets get ready to rumble and win.

Sam Rice said...

Shut them down Kuroda. go Yankees

Stan the Man said...

No score after one.

Steve said...

Kuroda tagged for 3 in the 2nd.

Steve said...

Yanks doqn 3-0 after 3. No hits.

Yankeeforever said...

3-0 O's after 5. Jeter with the only Yankee hit. Not good.

Luke Key said...

4-0 O's after 6. Yanks put a couple of men on base in the 6th but Swisher and Cano fail miserably stranding the runners. they are 0-6 with 4Ks between them.

bigbadwolf said...

Yanks go down and are only 2 games up. A win tomorrow is needed.

Steve said...

You don't score runs, you don't win.

AAA said...

Granderson with an utterly meaningless hime run in the 9th.

Lou Lis said...

Pitiful baseball by us. Pitiful

Karl Cameron said...

The sky is falling, the sky is falling. Until we win 5 or 6 straight. the glass is half full. We are two games up starting the last month of the season.

Anonymous said...

This blog is retarded.

Tony Gigante said...

Yesterday gone, August is gone. Today starts the rest of the season.

YankeeMike said...

David Phelps will pitch today and we need a win.

bigbadwolf said...

We looked bad last night. No one is hitting. the best at bats of the game all were from Jeter. Plus another brilliant defensive play from Jeter again.

Ted Lilly said...

Man oh man do we need some wins. Lets go Yankees.

Ulsie said...

Phelps can be a hero today.

Steve said...

No anonymous, you got it wrong. Blogs are not retarded. You are. May God have mercy on your soul.

Sharon/NC said...

Hey WIN METHOD. Maybe when you went to NY for the games you should have met with Teena. When she goes to games the team wins.

BIGTIMEYANKEE said...

Dear anonymous. Am I to believe that you think winning is retarded and losing is the way? You being what you are is very sad.

Gene A said...

Go Yankees

Chuck M said...

Yanks down 1-0 after one.

Dave Adams said...

Yanks down 2-0 after two.

Giambino said...

O's up 3-1 after 5. Uggggggly

Nick Polito said...

We need runs, we need wins.

Victor Grandozi said...

Things are looking bad. It ain't over until it's over. Jeter up with bases loaded in 7th. After being dow 0-2 Jeter works a big time clutch walk and the RBI to tie game. Swishers turn now. Swish hits bullet grounder to short who gets handcuffed for the error and the Yanks take lead 4-3. Pitching chage and Canos turn now. Cano flies out. Yanks up for first time in series. 4-3 after 7.

Chen Cho said...

I hope we win. I was almost ready to throw in the towel.

Stan the Man said...

Robertson with an easy 123 8th. One more inning for the win.

Saul L said...

We win. Rubber game tomorrow.

Steve said...

Tough win. Jeter is the man.

Al Ashton said...

Soriano with a three up three down easy ninth. Game over, the Yankees win.

bigbadwolf said...

Phelps wasn't sharp but he kept us in the game and he grinded it out. the bullpen was perfect and it needed to be.

Lou Lis said...

Perfect september so far.

Helmut F said...

Hughes goes tomorrow and it will be a big game. Will will be either 2 or 4 games in front. Win the game and win the series.

Teena/Bronx said...

This was a good one run game to win. We needed it.

Anonymous said...

The O's didn't put it away early and kept us alive. We have done the same all to many times ourselves this season. Nonetheless, a very big and needed win.

Gabe Hooks said...

Outstanding scratched out win today. 4 runs on 4 hits and winning is outstanding baseball. Only runs count towards winning.

will-i-am said...

30 games left. One win at a time. Keep us alive Jeets.

Mark D said...

Waste not want not. build on todays win with another.

Victor Gandozi said...

Todays game may be one of the most important in Phil Hughes' career. Win it Phil.

Chen Cho said...

Lead the team again Derek. you are the best there is.

Tom Loughlin said...

Let go Yankees. Take the division.

NJYANKEE said...

Looking for a big win and a big outing from Hughes. WIN!

Sam Logan said...

Go YANKEES Go

Lee Askew said...

real big games when you face you competition that is contending. A win for you is a sure loss for them. Like killing two birds with one stone.

Chester A said...

Come on guys, this is a big game to win. Bigger for the other guys, but non the less, a big one for us also.

YankeeMike said...

It's WIN METHOD time. LETS GO YANKEES.

Steve said...

Dickerson replacing Granderson hits two run home run in second for a 2-0 Yankee lead after two.

will-i-am said...

2-0 Yanks after 2 on Dickerson HR. Now for Hughes to throw a shutout comeback inning.

will-i-am said...

Shutout third inning for Hughes. That's the way to do it.

Stan the Man said...

Still 2-0 after 4.

Ted Lilly said...

Hughes allows solo HR in 5th. Yanks up 2-1 coming to bat in the 5th. Lets get some runs.

Steve said...

Swisher 2 out rbi gives Yanks 3-1 lead after 5. Then Hughes implodes in 6th allowinf 4 runs and the lead. Ugly.

Linda Pardo said...

Do we have a comeback in us?

AAA said...

Yanks getting hammered late. Lead down to two games. Not good.

sid greenberg/nyc said...

Bad day at blackrock as the Yanks lose and lead is down to two games. I think Showalter pulled an old trick out of the hat. I don't think Tilman was hurt and Showalter knew he would bring in Wolf to take care of the Yankee lefty bats. It worked.

Teena/Bronx said...

Now the pressure is really on.

Harry Stavris said...

It doesn't get an easier for the next three games. And if we don't win we can't be the best and we will go home.

Gus Papa said...

Our ace CC Sabathia goes today. And as an ace he needs to win this game and pitch lights out baseball.

Yankeeforever said...

We are not playing good baseball. ther is still time to recoup.

AAA said...

Go CC, Go Yankees.

Cory said...

our big lead is now a minimal lead. Do we have enough wins in us to survive?

will-i-am said...

3-3 after 6.

Tom Loughlin said...

Another sad one run loss.
