That's a really tough question. I like seeing Payton play, but not necessarily everyday. I really like having Mueller at 3rd, so I'm going to have to go with Olerud. First base is the position of those three that needs to most improvement as far as the starters for each position goes.
You also think Posada is a great catcher.
P.S. How's this years team working out for you? Playing teams like the Devil Rays pretty often, I'm sure it's going great.
Correction, you are: one first baseman, one second baseman, one catcher, one right fielder, one left fielder, one centerfielder and one GM away from tearing it up.
The only thing I would like changed is the playing of the bullpen. Everyone in there should be more effective, the way we're playing I'm not real big on making many moves.
How to own YANKEESRULE:
Statement: "We swept the Cubs who destroyed you."
Response: Kansas City Royals
Statement: "We swept the Pirates, you won 2 of 3."
Response: Tampa Bay Devil Rays
Statement: "We play the Rays which are a different team than when we played them last while you go play the hottest team in baseball in Cleveland."
Response: Red Sox sweep in four games in Ohio while Yanks allow the Devil Rays to put up 21 runs in 3 games at the "almighty" (snicker) Yankee Stadium. It makes it even greater that today's starter is a guy named Wang, as well.
You do a lot of talking and your team SUCKS (brutally honest). See, we know how to enjoy the season and can let our team do the talking for us, but you for some reason feel the need to prance around on a Red Sox website and constantly remind us of your stupidity, therefore we will remind you how your team is playing.
Also to note: I realize you won't read this until your team starts winning a few games and you come back.
You know, this game made me think just how valuable Payton is. The guy comes up in the 9th and drills a pitch that would have originally been a double, but because of his heads up baserunning, he got a triple and scored during the next hit. Way to go Jay!
If I'm a Yankee fan (also meaning I have 1/2 the IQ, no balls and no job), I'm not satisfied with the game. How many times are you going to put up 13 runs in an inning? It's not likely that you'll have that big of an inning again. So while you hold your parade for FINALLY beating the Devil Rays, Randy Johnson went 3 IP and gave up 7 ER.
Sounds good. You have to have class to respect the game, and our team respects it. Name one player on our team that is convicted of cheating baseball aka using steroids. Now, until you can think of one keep quiet and watch the Devil Rays put up 16 runs against you in two games.
The D-Rays still put up 11 runs on you... to me that's just about equal as a loss. Congrats on your moral victory, but personally I'm going to enjoy looking at those Yankee pitching lines for a while.
