14-14 on the last day of April, Posada and ARod on the 15 day dl, Two rookie pitchers who have yet to win, or even come close to winning a game, a different line up for every game of the season so far... the good news: Wang is 5-0, Rivera has 8 saves in 8 save opportunities with a 0.00 era, and the new Steinbrenner is just as crazy as the old one. On this date last year they were 10-14. I've been watching most games with my hands over my eyes.
For how many years have I been repeating the same thing: DO NOT PITCH TO MANNY!!!
and if you ever wanted to see the effects of a sudden withdrawal from steroids just take a look at David Ortiz, what a mess... Game 3 tonight!!!
Yanks unearth Sox jersey at new stadium
By KAREN MATTHEWS, Associated Press Writer
NEW YORK - So much for the curse. The New York Yankees have ended a construction worker's attempt to jinx their new stadium with a buried Boston Red Sox jersey.
Team officials watched Sunday as construction workers removed the jersey, with slugger David Ortiz's name on it, from 2 feet of concrete in a service corridor of the stadium that's under construction.
The team says a construction worker — who is a Red Sox fan — recently buried the jersey there while on the job. Two other supervisors found the tattered shirt Saturday.
The Yankees plan to donate the jersey to charity, and may pursue a lawsuit against the construction worker.
Girardi is a genius. Start with the bullpen and then go to your starter in the sixth inning of a game that you are losing. I love that Girardi was trying to out-smart the weather. Why didn't Kansas City have any of these problems with their pitching? Girardi has balls. I just wish he would start A-Rod at shortstop while Jeter is out, but we all know that would be a mortal sin. It's time to wake this team up before they go to Boston on Friday night. Maybe Mariano will start tonight?
Considering it was snowing last week, i'd the say baseball gods were quite kind to give us 55 and sunny for the ceremony that never gets old. Can't help but feel lucky that i was unemployed at the time since the games start at 2 in the morning. hey selig fuck you.
The best thing I've seen all week is the Chien Ming Wang + Joba Chamberlin + Mariano Rivera "lights out" combination. I saw it twice. Besides that, I've seen Toronto having a bit of fun along with Tampa Bay.It won't last. Men are getting paid millions of dollars to hit a fucking ball and they just aren't doing it, but it's only week one.
