    Oh what was that you asked? Who are the only two other Yankees besides montero to get a postseason hit at 21 years old or younger? Only Joe DiMaggio and Mickey mantle.
    Who and who?

    I wasn't sure. But according to the information I found on this thing called Google (ever hear of it? it's pretty cool), they seemed to be some pretty god damn good baseball players.

    I really like Russel Martin on this team. I hope he's back in some way next year. Love his energy and what a F'n slide last night!!

    Granderson is the man.

    He'll be back. He's arbitration eligible. He has been awesome though. Really like him as well.

  • Girardi needs to drop Tex down in the lineup, he's batting .165 over 26 games so far in his postseason career with the Yankees. He's probably had maybe 3 or 4 good games at best, unacceptable for the 4th highest paid player in the game. Sadly I now cringe every time he's up, its just been brutal watching him at the plate. I hope he can turn it around and Game 5 would be a good start but he's been a major disappointment. If he was playing in the old YS the boo birds would've destroyed him by now. Too bad he'll never waive his no trade because Fielder would be a perfect fit for YS.

    Every time he comes up, I already anticipate an out. At least with A-Rod, you have a feeling he will get a hit.

    Tex needs to start bunting down the third base side.

    I feel the same way and I also think the guy is hurt but I still rather have him up over Tex. I cant understand how the media isn't crucifying this guy already.

    Yes, I have a feeling A-Rod will get a hit.

    Let's just hope that inning will get Tex going. Didn't A-Rod go 2 for 2 in that inning?

    Yankees fans know their team will be a playoff contender pretty much the rest of their lives. Phillies fans feel that there is a tight window, and we are close to becoming something like the 90s Braves.
