The Yankee's Wang just keeps getting bigger

Wang the Taiwanese Tornado
This last week he led the Yankees to another victory.

[quote]In eight appearances since, seven of them starts,
Wang has proven to be one of the most consistent
Yankees starters – allowing more than three runs
only twice. [/quote]

[quote]Yankee manager Joe Torre on Wang: “This kid has been
a bonus. We knew he was someone we’d go to if we
had a breakdown, but I don’t think anybody could
have envisioned him pitching as well as he’s pitched.” [/quote]

[quote]Yankee pitching coach Mel Stottlemyre on Wang: “I
think he’s very sure of himself now. His confidence
level is at a peak. Even after his last game [June
10 against the Cardinals] where he wasn’t real happy
with the way he pitched, I think he knows he belongs
here now. He certainly has the stuff and he hasn’t
let anything bother him. I think he’s got a great
future ahead of him.” [/quote]

Wang just pitched a 2-hitter against Tampa.

well done, Wang! :notworthy:

Is Wang gonna pitch against Boston on the 18th? THAT would be sooooo cool.

Definition of mixed feelings- Go Taiwan, but… the Yankees :raspberry: :raspberry: :raspberry:

F&*&K The Yankees. Die Hard Cubs fan here :smiley: So we didn’t make it this year. But as for Wang, passing fad, as the best ballplayers from Asia, IMO, come from Japan.

FUCK US!!! FUCK YOU! :raspberry: You dis the Yanks, you dis us awll!

Aren’t you used to it by now? Don’t all children born in Chicago sigh in resignation when born?

yes, back to the Wang.

No shit? I heard, and have had some kind of confirmation due to Japanese pornos, that they weren’t very good ballplayers at all? :astonished:

But then again, as a Cubs fan, you probably have different standards!

:smiley: :smiley: :wink:

I think Wang is for real. He’s quite mature for his age, and will only get better. If he can make it in NY he can make it everywhere…

Is he the guy that is on the sports page of the Apple Daily every day?

Yes.
In full, glorious colour.

FUCK US!!! FUCK YOU! :raspberry: You dis the Yanks, you dis us awll!

Fwak ME? I got your Fuck you right here,

:raspberry: :smiley:

I guess I should be happy to see any MLB here in Taiwan but does it always have to be the Yankees? :raspberry:

Getting all worked up over a game of “rounders.” It’s so cute, really.

I feel the same way about the fucking Lakers. :fume:

august 20th in Boston, vs the Yanks, in the stands above the green monster, look for me and jdson. I’ll be the guy wearing the yankees hat, most likely covered in my own blood. :astonished: :rainbow:

Not a Yanks fan, or a Yanks hater, but Taiwan ought to be awfully proud of this guy.

He’s been the NYY’s number 3 guy in the rotation all year, stayed relatively healthy, and outshone some of the other starting pitchers they tried like Chacon, Small, Ponson, Wright, among others. Pretty impressive.

Just make sure you don’t have an accident and trip over the wall, it’s a long fall :smiling_imp:

another win for wang … he’s 15-5, and looking like he might have a shot at a cy young award.

latest game:

sports.espn.go.com/mlb/recap?gameId=260823112

the Taiwanese have all reason to be proud of Wang

bad time to be a Yankee hater…

He’s a looker, too, eh?

Wang is our national hero now, especially when CSB failed big time. :bravo:

I hope he will stay healthy for the years to come.

Let’s hope that the Taiwanese media doesn’t screw up again with Wang. Let him pitch for crying out loud! Quit harrassing his family.

I’ll be rooting for his quest on #16.

Oh yeah, rootin’ for the Yanks is like rootin’ for the sun to come up every morning. But I think I can deal with it every 5 days…almost.
