Way OT - Phillies beat Yankees 3-1; Yankees are worse than a D-II college baseball team (Joke Post)
Yesterday the Phillies beat the Yankees 3-1 in their first game of spring training.
Ordinarily this would be less worthy of a thread than a Miley Cyrus tweet, but due to recent events, this likely signals the demise of the winningest MLB franchise of all-time, if not baseball itself.
You see, just a few days ago the Phillies lost to University of Tampa, a D-II school, by 4 runs.

Based on SCIENCE, this means that the Yankees, who have won 27 championships in their storied history, would have lost to UT by 6 runs.
Despite the Steinbrenners spending over $200 million on their team (http://www.baseballprospectus.com/compensation/?team=NYA), they would lose by a grand slam to a team that can't even compete at the highest level of college baseball. This is truly a sad moment in baseball history and shows that the MLB has been dependent on steroids for its years of success. Without HGH and other testosterone boosters, its players are likely to devolve into highly-compensated little leaguers with all 9 fielders running to grounders at the same time. I do not look forward to this.
Also, the college football season and HARBAUGH really need to start as soon as possible.

Long live the transitive property!
According to that website, our basketball team is better than Kentucky's this season.
I do not see a flaw in that conclusion, nor do I wish to test whether the converse is true.
It's still spring training, right? Yeah, don't think the score of these games are really relevant to anything. If you actually believe the Phillies (and Yankees) are worse than a Div 2 team, I have some oceanfront property in Arizona to sell you.
I think you are implying that the OP is in jest, but I'm just a little confused here...
I wouldnt mind if the Yankees went 0-162.
Yeah, we tied with them 2 days ago, and now we lost to them. But by logic, the Pirates are also worse than a d2 team because they lost to the Yanks today

Yes, and do you know what happened to my friend? He was giving me steroids
That damn transitive property gets your every time!
the franchise implodes to never play in the MLB again because it comes out that the Yankees have been feeding their players steroids since the 1880s, then the entire organization gets a lifetime ban, all their titles taken away, all their crap in the HoF gets put in a burn pile and lit, and their stadium gets filled in as the new landfill for NYC.
The end. Great story.

Are you Lakers Bro guy IRL?
Baseball should never be discussed on this blog in any form.
