    cano is in for the homerun derby.

    Not sure how much I like this. Although I do think the "home run derby ruins your swing" argument is nonsense

    agreed. i just don't like a player going up there and taking like 200 hacks in the course of a couple hours. the chances of pulling or straining something in that time frame is pretty great.

    I wouldn't worry about Cano. A lot of his home runs and most of his swings are on the line drive variety.

    Sounds like Oppenhemier is the top choice for the D'backs GM job. Would be a big loss.

    I am not terribly concerned, more along the line with what Rival said above and what Kevin Long said about it just being a tiring process.

    ESPN is now reporting cano dropped out of the HR derby.


    wise choice.

    I wouldn't call ESPN reporting it. I'd guess that someone who works there happened to read Blogging the Bombers and saw this http://www.nydailynews.com/blogs/yankee ... -home.html. And then in what ESPN does, they credit themselves for having it.

    Looks like K Long got his way.

    ESPN always does that shit.
  • Cliffy6745Cliffy6745 Posts: 33,840
    AHhhhhhhh. Cano is pulling out because of a "back injury".
  • igotid88igotid88 Posts: 27,996
    So it seems Cano didn't know he was out of the HR derby. It was a Yankees decision.

    Damn, that shit hurts. Don't see someone foul one off the plate and into his jaw often. Can't feel too good.

    i don't think you would. how many people actually have 3D tv's these days?

    Well you can take it to the bank that Nick Johnson's second run in the Bronx ends with:

    24 games played
    12 hits
    .167 BA
    .306 Slugging!!!!!!!

    Thanks a lot, woman!

  • Cliffy6745Cliffy6745 Posts: 33,840
    Solid win. Would have like to see them score a few more but all good. Heading into the all-star break going at least 4-3 on a West Coast trip. Nothing wrong with that. Hopefully they can steal one of the next two.

    I guess they don't think Montero can cut it as a catcher. Lucky they have Romine and Sanchez. But it will suck not knowing how Montero would do here. This also means Vasquez is gone as well. Since they're not moving Hughes to the bullpen.
