Idk, this firing is a strange one, firstly I know a few latin friends who saw it, they laugehd, and everyone in the booth was laughing. Also, how does this get him fired, and Keith hernandez not for saying those sexist remarks? Honestly, this is deeper than it seems, the network prob just got tired of him.

only reason we didnt keep him last time was because he was getting paid too much for doing to little. I wouldn't mind ahving a designated cheerleader, for teh right price

I wouldn't mind having anotehr Derek Lowe minus the headcaseness

very well said

Id say if we're finally going to take a dive we should start with him, he's 26, has proven he can pitch against elite players (WBC) and has a great arsenal of hard pitches that are 80 MPH+

You can only get better with experience, and I'm sure Beckett will figure out how to juggle not getting blisters while not relying on his fastball too much. I remember the start where he got a cut on his hand, he was using a lot of curves, and very effectively. He has shown shades of greatness, and he has shown shades of s***, but he has talent, so hopefully it will translate into a good seaosn next year.

Idk if I'd want him in 08, because though he is young he's not THAT young, he'll be 30+ that offseason. But hey, who knows where time will take us.

Wow, unbelievable, Lidle was a great player, RIP and my apologies to the family (asif theyd read this)

Matsuzaka is who Im wantin, I mean he was the WB Classic MVP, and is only 26 YEARS OLD. I mean talk about a full deck of aces in Beckett, Paps, Lester, and Matsuzaka if he can pull through.

It really is easier to be a Yankee fan no matter the situation, however, most Yankee fans are fairweatehred (unlike those on our site) and have quickly hidden their caps, Sox fans you have to endure the pain so they end to be more true fanbase wise. However, fi you knew nothing about baseball, and had to choose based on who had the more championships and money, you'd choose the yanks most of the time.

Schill, Beckett, Papelbon, Wake, and a FA is not a bad rotation so long s health isn't an issue. I know we can't expect a 20 win/3.00 ERA from Schill anymore but he should still be effective. Beckett has hopefully learned a lot from last year and will take the ceremonial passing of the ace, as this is Schill's last season pitching. Papelbon should do fine, but I don't expect stupendous results, and same goes for Wake. I'd like to go after Zito, preferabley because he has experience in the AL, while Matsuzaka and Schmidt do not. However, that being said, hitters don't have experience against either of the other two. In order I'd like Zito, Matty, and then Schmidt. I'd be happy with all of them. For offense, I hope we can coax Manny to stay for one more season, and bring in carlos Lee to form a very good 3-4-5 which was missing last season. That's over 100 HRs and 400 RBIs. Coco is an auto upgrade over himself, as the injury took a lot out of his hand-speed, which is crucial for him. Pedroia I ahve faith in, and hpefully he can provide a good amount fromthe 8th spot. Lowell if he has anything of a season will be somewhat usefull. Tek needs to have a comeback season, but his presence behind the plate is more than enough.

Nah, I just straight up don't like A-Rod. No matetr the uni

I agree, he cant just depend on his heat and an inconsistent, though he seemed to do better when he used his curveball more. Maybe the sinker caused his blister problems? I really can't think of any otehr reasons for why he didn't use it.

well i guess ARod2212's garuntee of the yanks winnin is down the toilet now eh?

Now the Tiegrs have teh advantage as they ahve the betetr starters going home. Go Tigg's, ecause honestly, you'd ahve to be on crack to hope for RJ to pull thru

Lets go Tigg's

Just win

Who didn't like him? I eman I geuss stats show we can be a much betetr offensive team, but just wonderin

For now, but only another year can tell

Mariano Rivera, Derek Jeter, Joe DiMaggio, Lou Gehrig

The guys still amazin on the mound, id say thats a pretty good offseason acquirement, though we should focus on younge players as well

Fantastic game trhead intro, I must say, top draw

When it's too good to be true, it's too good to be true

hed be the first to "legally" break roegr maris' racord

neitehr is a big change, I kinda like teh db logo that looks like a snake, the reds ahrdly chanegd anything, unelss they ahev new jerseys
