    No one in the NY media referred to Torre as a "clown".

    From the beginning of the season, I told you that Girardi was a boob and that it was only a matter of time before he gets run out of town. Yankee fans have been so confused by the fact that their prize rookies Hughes and Kennedy produced zero wins and Joba got injured that they really weren't watching the horrible job being done by Girardi. The NY Press has thought him to be a clown for some time now, and they are finally printing it. http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/baseball/yankees/2008/09/27/2008-09-27_joe_girardi_makes_trouble_for_himself_wi.html?page=0

    Francona says that Beckett will pitch game 3.
  5. a700hitter
    Not two years in a row. I don't remember ever getting eliminated on the last day of the regular season.

    What channel is carrying the Bears game?
  7. a700hitter
    I wouldn't know what that is like.

    Lowell looks like he is in bad shape.
  9. a700hitter
    It looks like Mo thinks he needs surgery. http://www.nypost.com/seven/09262008/sports/yankees/rivera_to_have_mri_exam_on_shoulder_130847.htm

    Yes, he would heave had to stay away from serious injury for two years, but if he did, IMO he would have earned more money. He has never had serious chronic injury problems, e.g. bad back, knees etc. Now, he has earned himself the reputation as not just crazy, wacky, Manny being Manny, but also as a malcontent with a violent streak. Teams will back away from this type of craziness and unpredictability. IMO, he will not get a 4yr/$60 million deal, never mind a $100 m deal. Not at his age.

    It's truly amazing that he has pitched for this many years without a serious arm injury. I don't cheer for injuries, but without MO the Yankee demise will continue to get worse.

    ...and Manny may have overplayed his hand as well. There is the "crazy factor." Teams will be very reluctant to invest $100 million in crazy. If he played hard in Boston this season without the drama and had put up the #'s that he is putting up, the $20 millon option would have been picked up and the same goes for the 2010 season. After that, he certainly would've found some team to give him 2yr/20million. Frankly, I do not think he will get anything approaching a 4yr/$60m guaranteed contract. It ain't gonna happen.

    Pedro was lifted in the 7th inning with 2 on and no one out. The score is tied at 3-3. He looked like he wanted to cry as he left the mound. He's got nothing left in his tank, but whatever he had left he left on the mound tonight. He struck out 9 and on the first pitch by Rincon, he gave up a 3 run homer. I think we might have seen Pedro pitch for the last time. He was a pleasure tro watch.
  14. a700hitter
    In my opinion, he is the best pitcher of the last 50 years, maybe even of all time. Good luck to you Pedro. I'd love to see you spin a gem.
  15. a700hitter
    No they won't be fine without him. Pencil in 4 pop outs for Kotsay every game if Drew can't play.
  16. a700hitter
    Papelbon is giving away the bases to the fans. That's pretty cool.
  17. a700hitter
    He probably turned down the Police Commissioners job for this gig.

    Why the heck is Heidi Watney wearing slicker. I feel cheated. I think the players and the fans have earned a little wet T-shirt Heidi time.
  19. a700hitter
    German said the team had no guts, but they hung an L on the best pitcher in the majors. He was 22-2 coming into the game.
  20. a700hitter
    Big Papi giving props to Pedroia, saying that Pedroia gave him the most memories in 2008.
  21. a700hitter
    That Bullpen cop has the best job in the PD.
  22. a700hitter
    Definitely.
  23. a700hitter
    Let's go wrecking ball!
  24. a700hitter
    Enjoy Apple Picking season, suckers!
