  1. http://newyork.yankees.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20080618&content_id=2955685&vkey=news_nyy&fext=.jsp&c_id=nyy The Yankees have signed Sidney Ponson to a minor league contract...again. Not surprised to see this at all with everything going on. He was doing decent in Texas before being let loose for "clubhouse issues" or whatever they're calling it. Not expecting anything from Ponson 2.0 but I guess options are options.
  2. How great does making Joba a starter look now, after all this? The YES crew was just discussing this and I thought it was a great point. If Joba had not been stretched out by this point, the Yanks would be in big trouble. They'd have to deal with two big holes in the rotation as opposed to just one.
  3. It's about time they finally did something. I don't agree with their decision, but Randolph didn't deserve to have to sit there and watch the blade swing over his head for weeks, even months! The Mets handled this horribly and I think it's definitely going to carry over into the team's performance over the remainder of the season.
  4. Astros finally get that last out...but not until 8 runs score.
  5. The Yankees are teeing off of the Astros today. 11 - 0 after the Posada HR
  6. Definitely saw something like this happening. I'm hoping it's not too bad, but it didn't look good at all when he was running or being helped off the field.
  7. At least he's doing good things with his time off... http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20080611&content_id=2891506&vkey=news_mlb&fext=.jsp&c_id=mlb
  8. Damon gets his sixth hit of the day to win the game!
  9. Yeah, that about sums it up. Tied game...again.
  10. What the hecK? Baseball is weird.
  11. Pettitte should be in our bullpen. Neither can hold a lead.:thumbdown
  12. Crisp should have his reduced for that awesome duck and dodge.
  13. Manny probably just forgot Youk was on his team.
  14. Should be a tied game right now. ...thank you Kyle Farnsworth.
  15. If the Jays hold on, Wilkerson will be getting the SV.
  16. Lugo is performing slightly better than a Jeter who's been dealing with injuries this season. Is this supposed to be surprising or impressing? Because it fails in both aspects.
  17. Joba settles down in his second inning of work.
  18. A walk, balk, passed ball, and a groundout give the Jays a 1 - 0 lead.
  19. ...he did work for the Yankees.
  20. I think it's a good idea to try this out now. The Yankees need the help with their rotation. If it doesn't work, he can go back to the eighth. No harm, no foul (or little at most, I'd say.) However, if the Yankees don't stretch him out their hands are tied when the rotation continues to struggle and possibly even next year.
