    Huh? We already had Salty. If we had signed Martin, Salty would have been sharing catching duties with Martin, so how could the Yankees get Salty? I don't think you are following the conversation. Edit: I have never posed the Salty/Martin thing as an either/or proposition, but rather having them both and the Yankees having neither.

    Who? It was a very thin field.

    I'm not saying that at all. I'm saying that people are blowing his performance out of performance. It's not that great. I hope he gets better in future years. He's made a big improvement being able to hold down a ML job for an entire season. His defense has improved dramatically since the start of the season. Nevertheless, I hope this is not his ceiling.

    Martin's OPS in August is .836 Salty's OPS in August is .604 I'm not putting this out there for comparisons sake as much as a reminder that we should have had them both. That would have put a big hurt on the Yankees.

    Varitek is a fossil and his OPS is .725. Salty's is .758 and falling. I wouldn't be getting him ready for HOF induction.

    If we see them in the playoffs, they'll be in for a surprise. Who thought we would be happy to see Drew return.

    Reddick is still struggling. A platoon of Reddick and DMac is just not going to cut it.

    How bout we cue the Jacko hate.

    Wow! I am impressed that you knew this. But the again your cat is named Yaz. I just can't believe that he is that old. I remember him in 1967.

    We need to get a break.

    We have no hitters in the lineup.

    I don't think you are a vegetarian, because you only eat Dairy Cows.

    This series is going to be painful enough without the umps missing calls like the play by Reddick.

    No Ortiz, Ellsbury and Youkilis against the Rangers. Little chance of success.
  21. a700hitter
    Without Ortiz and Youkilis, I'll be very happy to split in Texas.

    Marlins suck so bad.

    Mike Cameron goes deep off Heath Bell to tie the game 3-3 in the 9th.

    Coco loses a ball in the sun. He always had trouble in day games. i noticed that when I first saw him in Ft. Myers and he hasn't improved.

    Lester held them down through 6 and the offense got a handful of runs through 6 and insurance late. Lester and Beckett need to carry them for a while. The Texas series could be ugly unless Ortiz sheds his boot and Ellsbury comes back. Reddick 0-4 with 2 k's. He's now under .300. I'm not hating on the kid. He has a live bat and he's a good fielder with a strong arm, but slumps like this by a kid have to be expected. The So x are rolling the dice that he will make the necessary adjustments and start hitting again. I am risk averse. I'd still get someone to play RF. I don't think DMac is the answer. Edit: From the Globe after the game: • Josh Reddick's road to the Hall of Fame has hit a new bumps. He is hitting .226 in August with four RBIs. The Game 1 playoff starter in right field could be just about anybody at this point. The candidates include Reddick, J.D. Drew, McDonald, Ryan Kalish and the ever popular Mystery Guest Off The Waiver Wire.
