  1. Congrats to Jeter on his 200 hit even though it was a real cheapie aided by the home town official scorer. It's been a pattern in NY that the press actively aids and creates the myth of Captain Intangibles. The shot of the stands shows his father shaking his head "no" thinking it was probably an error. C'mon, Poppa jeter, you should know that the press will always help out your son.
  2. Whoa! Moose is struggling with these bums. 51 pitches in 2 innings. Your Rock is getting rocked.
  3. Of the three places, Boston has something the other two places cannot offer. If he finishes his career in Boston and goes out on a high note with a Championship, there will be an overwhelming rise in sentimentality in Red Sox Nation. That will equate to tremendous economic opportunities in New England throughout his retirement. His name does not carry the same cache as it does in New England. That is just a fact. Once he retires, the only business asset he will have will be his good name. Roger is no dummy.
  4. Do we want to get to the point where every square inch is an advertisement? Would we want players uniforms looking like something from NASCAR?
  5. No relevance. I was just joking. Go to the tape if you have it taped. I'm not the only one on these boards that heard it. It went something like this: Leiter: "I think I'd give him a 'B'". Kay: (Derisively) "A 'B'?" Slight chuckling from Singleton. Leiter: "What? A 'B+' ... maybe? Kay: That's very generous. Now , I may not have the conversation verbatim, but I believe that I have captured the essence.
  6. Correction: They are 0 for this millennium.
  7. I know. WTF is that about?:dunno:
  8. But he wasn't setting up anything. He just threw strikes and eventually they got themeselves out.
  9. Not only isn't it broke, but right now the have a slam dunk when they get to the 9th. That is invaluable as the Yankees have demonstrated for years with Mo. They'll have to make some other arrangements to bolster the starting corps. Maybe it'll be Hansen. Foulke has always wanted to start, but they would probably never consider it.
  10. As long as the kid keeps pumping strikes he'll be walking off the mound in triumph.
  11. Just keep throwing strikes kid.
  12. Nice catch by Hollins to end the inning.
  13. He gets a save whether they score or not.
  14. He didn't have a chance on that splitter.
  15. What a baserunning rock by Crawford only getting to 2B on a ball of the CF wall
  16. Are they going with the formula: Foulke, Timlin, Papelbon
  17. What a break! Strike 3. WP run scores.
  18. WMP works a walk and AGon is up with one out and the bases juiced.
  19. I'd guess it was down for about 10-15 minutes Edit: Sorry YanksHater
  20. When they pressed him on his grade, he went higher, because he thought maybe he had gone too low.
  21. Foulke, making it look easy on 8 pitches.
  22. Pena looking a little awkward out there right now.
  23. That was some rock that Lugo pulled on the bases last inning. I thought WMP made a nice play off the wall, but the flip by Loretta who was all the way on the other side of 2B...well... for the fans of some teams, such plays become legendary and the player becomes an icon.
