The yankees BEST pitcher NEVER entered the game (nor the series for that matter). how come no one even mentioned bringing in Joba to face manny (or Youk after assumed IBB) in the 6th?

Obviously the second start was his best and if not for a very questionable managerial decision, this could have been just as good if not better considering the opponent. So we have earned so far this season that Mussina's stamina deserves more eyes than his velocity, he seems to just hit a wall in his sixth inning of work. Offense is getting hits and doing their thing, I really believe that Alex Rodriguez could have had a different result if there was no rain delay. It seems that the slump is beginning to finally dissipate as for three games now the Yankees have had good to great games at the plate. Melky Cabrera is having a good start to the year and like I noted before, he looks like he knows what he's doing at the top of the lineup. If Johnny Damon and Cabrera stay on the paths they're on right now for the next week could we see a change in the lineup? Absolutely loved LaTroy Hawkins outing, getting out the 3-4-5 hitters of the Red Sox and he looked great outside of that hot shot by Kevin Youkilis that was caught by A-Rod. Please, if this message gets out to Yankees fans all over NY, please shut the fuck up. Harassing your own player for wearing a jersey he wears to honor a legendary player is fucking stupid and it's a detriment to the Yankees, so please shut the fuck up.

That's like one pitcher striking out 25 guys in a 12 inning game. Yeah it's a record, but he got help. Give it an asterisk, we had a 2+ hour rain delay to work with.
