This was bound to happen, they just won 11 straight, mostly smoke and mirrors (Yankee series and even the Oakland series). Just wondering who is going to blame Gibbons for putting Hawkins in?

offense sucked again

Hawkins hit hard again. Not impressed with him at all

Another bad game all around

A losing streak wouldn't be so bad. There may be alot of people looking to unload some tickets for decent prices....

Not really. According to a YES network person, streaks can just be deleted at will. I'm sure if we went on 2 11 game losing streaks he would be all, if you just delete those 2 11 game losing streaks the Jays have they'd be as good as the Yankees :sarcasm:

It's basically been a week since Hawkins pitched.

Kind of the problem with an 8 man bullpen, they have so many guys that are barely being utilized enough, especially with the starters going very deep into games.

Winning streaks of that nature are generally just smoke and mirrors then, right? Because nobody should expect a team to carry a perfect record over the course of an entire season.

It also doesn't help that Gibbons favoured Sanchez for a few games there over other bullpen arms.

Might blow Gibby's ind but it's almost like an 8 man pen is... unnecessary.

Also, why the **** is Hendriks our exclusive long man when he's been our 2nd best reliever? #JustGibbonsThings

"The Yankees are all about tradition"

Because it's not like every other team in the entirety of pro sports does exactly teh same thing to memorialize an important player milestone. Nope. Just the Yankees. Because they're "about" tradition.
