WIN METHOD....bringing out the best

Here it is the last month of the 2013 MLB regular season and the drive to the playoffs is on.   And yes, this YANKEE team is in the hunt and could still reach the playoffs this season.  WIN METHOD fans, and all baseball fans, think of the playing time lost by so many YANKEES this season.  I bet we couldn't name everyone, but lets try.   We lost regulars, then we lost replacements for the regulars, then we lost subs for the replacement players.

Jeter, Teixeira, Granderson, Cervelli, Youkilis, Hafner, Phelps, Nix, Almonte, Nunez, and you can throw in sad to say Afraud.  Add in the smaller injuries to several others for various amounts of time and you have more games missed than you can shake a stick at.

Through all the injuries the WIN METHOD has selected enough quality players producing just enough and at the right time to help keep this years YANKEE team in the playoff dog fight.  The YANKEE season isn't over yet.

It is as it always has been a matter of WINS.  Only WINS can take a team and a player to the second season.  Nothing else matters, no stat of any kind, be it an actual reality based stat or a convoluted misleading man made stat used and relied upon only by the most foolish of baseball fans.
A question that that the stat frauds can't handle and refuse to answer is....would you rather go to the playoffs because you won enough games, or would you rather lead the league in stats and not make the playoffs???

The interesting story of this season and what we need to take away from this season, is just how well the WIN METHOD can produce, even in the worst of times, and then just how great a season 2014 will look to be.  First things first, lets all root for this YANKEE team to reach the playoffs this season.  No matter what happens the rest of the year, this 2013 YANKEE team has done the WIN METHOD and Joe Girardi proud.  Lets roll.

Huff slated to start tonight. Looks like Hughes is odd man out. Well, he pitched himself into his fate.

Erica Johnston said...

i love Girardi giving Huff another start after his bosux fiasco.

RLA said...

Hey stat frauds, Baltimore 13 hits last night, Yankees 6. No the Orioles did not win. Why, because hit stat don't mean squat.

Doug Parker said...

First time here. Wonderful, intelligent, and brilliant in concept and wisdom. I'm hooked.

sid greenberg,nyc said...

Girardi deserves manager of year, hands down, no doubt about it.

WIN METHOD said...

Welcome Doug. Post what you think often as you wish.

Kuroda, CC, & Nova to face sux.

Randy Holt said...

We need your best stuff tonight Kuroda. Zero runs will win the game.

Ray from Boston said...

Are we going to lose Gardner now also? It is hard to believe this team is so close to the playoffs with all the injuries this season. WIN METHOD is the best.

William Mensom said...

I am proud to be a Yankee fan. To be where this team is now after enduring all they have this season is a remarkable uplifting feat. No matter how it ends, this season has been one of the greatest.

Domenic said...

Kuroda gives up 4 in 1st. Down 4-0 after 1. Not good.

Carl Hooks said...

No matter what happens the rest of this season, next year is going to be something to look forward to.

Yank23245 said...

We can only ho[pe Afraud gets banned for next year and we can start with a clean injury free slate and no noise from the fraud.

Pettitte will be making his final Yankee Stadium start tomorrow unless the Yankees reach the playoffs and he gets a start in NY.

All hail Mariano Rivera, the greatest relief pitcher in the history of MLB.

A wonderful season, one Yankee fans should be proud of. Next years will be even better when we win the big prize.

Jed Hurley said...

Keep winning, keep up the pressure. Anything can happen.

William Mensom said...

MARIANO RIVERA, thank you for all you have given to the Yankees, baseball, and the fans. GOD BLESS YOU.

Cory said...

1-0 Yankees after 5.

1-1 after 6.

will-i-am said...

Yanks down 2-1 coming to bat in the 8th. Robertson fails in relief and Rivera has to get the last two outs in the eighth.

Deb F said...

Yankees with men at 2nd and 3rd and nobody out in the 8th fail to score as two runners are thrown out at home.

Stan the Man said...

Yanks down 2-1 after 8.

Tom Loughlin said...

9th inning, last licks

Steve said...

Game over, Yanks 3 up 3 down, lose it 2-1.

RLA said...

Yanks lose on Mo's day 2-1. Should've, could've won.

Patricia Piper said...

Horrible no clutch hitting loss. Jetes will change that next year.

Rahm Mahood said...

Even though we aren't eliminated yet I think we have almost no chance at the playoffs anymore, just to many teams to pass with not enough games to do it.

Gus Papa said...

You will never be forgotten Mo and tales of your greatness will be told forever.

Victor Grandozi said...

Final day off and then three games with the Rays that we must win all to have a chance at the playoffs.

YankeeMike said...

It was a great day for Rivera yesterday and he got five outs to give his team a chance that they couldn't deliver on.

jimbo said...

Maybe will be able to take another positive out of this year for next...Afraud getting banned.

Teena/Bronx said...

It was great being at the Stadium for Mo's farewell, but for the loss. I cried for joy.

Alex Antonious said...

Six more wins or bust.

Benny Pake said...

Two sweeps in a row. We can do it.

Chuckabuck said...

Kuroda again, last start in NY?

jimbo said...

Sweep the Rays and see where that leaves us.

Barry West said...

Go guys, it isn't over.

The Yankee season is officially over after 158 games of a 162 game season.

Walt Drummond said...

It has been a long hard season with an unbelievable amount of injuries. The team hung tough and was very competitive. Next year win take it all.

bigbadwolf said...

This off season should be very interesting. We will see who comes and goes.

Sharon/NC said...

i would like to see guys like Almonte win a job and a few of the over paid FAs take a hike including Cano. If you don't want to play to win and only for money go somewhere else.

Steve said...

No score after 3.

BIG TIME YANKEE said...

Another great tribute to Rivera last night particularly by Jeter and Pettitte, on the mound in Mo's last appearance at Yankee Stadium. A great class group and organization, the best in baseball.

sid greenberg,nyc said...

Let the chips fall where they may. The Yankees still have WIN METHOD to guide them.

Claude Reeves said...

I agree, this off season is going to be interesting and exciting as negotiations go back and forth and rumors abound with players coming and going.

Yank23245 said...

I just want Afraud gone once and for all.

YankeeMike said...

In my opinion we have veteran depth, possible FA signings, and upcoming youth good enough to be the best in baseball NY.

Hector Lopez said...

Close out the season with some wins.

jimbo said...

Go Yankees. Hold your head high guys.

Stan the Man said...

3-0 Yanks after 4. Warren with 4 shutout innings in a starting role.

Deb F said...

Adam Warren earns the win as the Yankees scratch out a 3-2 win. Pettitte to start his final game of his career. Go Andy, go Yankees, get one more save Mo.

Donna2 said...

Andy, Mo, thanks for all you have done to help make the Yankees the best in baseball over the past two decades. Truly WIN METHOD.

Warren hammond said...

The Rivera send off tour this year has been well orchestrated and magnificently done. Great job in honoring a great man.

Patricia Piper said...

Yes, Pettitte tonight in his final career MLB appearance. Go Andy.

WIN METHOD said...

It looks like I will have a very winter this year.

Erica Nuyens said...

I know you can pull it off WIN METHOD. love ya,

William Mensom said...

Is this going to be your last season WIN METHOD? Or are you going to continue doing what no other can do?

Deb F said...

You have given us a great run WIN METHOD. You should do only what you feel will make you happiest.

jimbo said...

Two more games. One win and we take the final series of the season.
