But I wouldn’t trade my kid and soon to be kids for the world.
The little one loves the Yanks. Watches the games with dad, but she only last about 3 innings and 6 if we go to the game.

Tell me about it I have one 4 years old and one coming.
Hank is scary he even looks like George. I didn’t realize how much until I saw his picture in the paper today.

I for one, hope to see them win 22 or more games, between them(IPK/Phil). I think that is realistic, they have the stuff but not the experience. If we were very lucky maybe more than 22 games. My realistic view is; keep us in the game, even if they don’t get the win…I can live with that. So can we all. Hank is a chip off the old block, “I want it now…no matter the cost.” I had two kids like that. 27/08.

Micky#7 you’re probably right, but I think a lot of people including ownership think 15/18 game winners. Why else would the GM and Hal be having “talks” with Hank after 20 games? They may talk about patience and development, but inside they’re like damn why aren’t these guys winning.
It’s still early we will see.

A bit of history people; Very FEW 22/23 year old 1st timers…do not count last year…come into the bigs firing on all cylinders. Even the great Joba will have trouble as a starter. Give the guys a little time, we all knew what we were getting. Although some were projecting them to be 15/18 game winners, one or more of them may yet. Look at CMW, he has won 19×2, but he was 26 when he came up. These guys should still be pitching in the Mil, but talent is what it is. I am trying very hard not to give excuses for these guys, they will be sent down if they can’t get their s@#%t together soon, even with all the talent they have. Ras is a good replacement and there are others coming along nicely also(NOT OHLY, he is BP for ever). OK, let it rip! 27/08.

I saw that this morning. If San Fran takes Gordon Beckham, the city might sink into the ocean.

One of the best sites on the net just posted their first Mock Draft (only picks 1-11, so no Yanks as of yet).

Let’s not lose sight of the fact that 140 + more games remain….at this time last year it was a little worse and we see how that ended up.

That is not a justification it is merely a fact and one that can’t be disputed. It also lends credence to those who aren’t panicking yet and staying positive , ONLY 20 games into the season.

You know what i don’t have one that will satisfy this crowd. I could say bring up Rasner, but i will probably be laugh of the site. How could Rasner match the stuff and ability that Hughes and Kennedy have shown us so far.
But time keeps moving into the future and this will come to ahead one way or the other.
