If it were the Red Sox getting robbed, Selig would fire the lot of them. And hire George Mitchell to recruit a new set of umpires. No, because it’s happening to the Yankees.

His numbers r basically right on line with the previous 2 seasons, and considering he is the 9th hitter its more than enuff. Cano is really annoying the shit out of me too, but he has been too good in his career to give up on him. My favorite player ever (along with Mattingly) is Jeter, and to be honest he has by far been the least productive hitter in the everyday lineup. It doesnt help that Posada is still basically a 2 out of 3 days catcher for the moment, really does hurt the lineup when he isnt there everyday. The whole lineup today was a joke basically. It took until they were down 2-0 in the 7th to start to hit, and even then as usual they leave 5 runners on base in the last 2 innings. How in the world you score 9 runs in an amazing comeback against one of the best pitching staffs in baseball against Toronto, then in the following series lose 2-1 and 3-2 to the freakin Royals with 2 games in between where you score 18 runs on 30 hits or so is beyond amazing. Against the Royals we had 2 starters give up 2 runs in 8 innings and LOSE both of those games. That is inexcusable and the blame goes to the entire lineup as a whole. How is Melky underperforming???

I don't care how good of an arm he has. Sorry but I don’t want someone who can’t put up an OPS+ of 100 playing CF for the Yankees. I don’t care how good of an arm he has.

My guess is that because it was so long..I should have continued to make it longer by talking about Edwar Ramirez, etc...and some more of the positive things that have been happening since the Yankees have been plummeting...I'm sorry but I've been upset with them for quite some time and just like today...the starting pitching does awesome...time for the unthinkable to happen and ruin that good start by Iron Mike...Rivera gives up another home run to Guillen. When it rains...it pours. - Axl I’ve noticed some of you like to rip my posts apart mainly because of the length.
