Great night all around. It's so much more fun to watch a competitive team with fight than the garbage that we had to watch last year. Whether we make the post season or not, this has been a fun season.
But his numbers are great. So much for numbers. Anyone who has been watching for about the last 8-10 years knowsthat he is money in the bank to choke against the skanks.
He's a very deliberate guy, but sometimes you have to act before the competition does. I am not a KRod fan, so no loss there, but he will have to make a decision.
It's a damn shame that you can't stop poking at me like the mods have asked. This is the third time from you, but I will continue to show great restraint. Enjoy the game.
Interesting. If we kept all of those guys, we wouldn't be any better today. Very few of the traded prospects have made any impact. Trade away Benny Boy!!!
None of those stats are needed to see that Lester has stunk for the last 2 seasons. Watching the games tells you that. The stats just confirm it for the doubting Thomases.
They have been to the WS twice in recent years. I guess that they are hoping that the third time will be a charm. As for Cruz, I would think the Rangers have a heads up on that situation and made the move with full knowledge of that situation.
The Yankees have made a habit of getting guys like this for free. The other teams have been picking up the salaries and the Yankees give up some palooka of a prospect.
I think the guy is physically fragile. If he can put up a full season, I would sell high on him, because I have no confidence that he will ever be a reliable innings eater.
I am thinking that he will throw on the side for the next 5 days then send him out on a rehab for 3 starts in 2 weeks. Hopefully, he will be back in 3 weeks. If this takes 6 weeks, we are talking about a Labor Day return.
As someone who remembers the game in the 1960's, I can tell you that today's players is a pampered wuss. Calling Buch a candy ass is not a big stretch. He has plenty of company. He also had good reason to distrust our incompetent medical staff. The whole process just took too long.
I said it at the time and I stand by it. I didn't care if we got anyone in return. If either of the remaining guys 2 guys of the 5 guys we received does anything, it will be gravy.
