    Anyone watching. Cc sitting at around 92 in his first spring start? Gun has to be juiced. I don't buy that for a second

    Scouts had him 90-92 and hit 93. Sheeeeet. If he can be okay, this rotation could be pretty pretty fucking good

  • his mechanics for the most part looked decent, the last few pitches seemed to stay up without any movement but overall he came out of it without incident.

    Good to see Tanaka throwing well too.

    I've said it before and I will say it again. I miss the fat Sabathia. Get that man a double cheeseburger. To his credit, he has gained a lot of it back. Needs to pack on a few more.

    Because he has an oddly shaped head, perhaps? Just guessing.

    Despite missing the postseason for the second consecutive year, the Yankees posted record revenue last year thanks in part to robust ballpark and merchandise sales sparked by Derek Jeter's last season.

    Good thing the Yanks sat out of signing anyone this off-season.

    Fuck you, Hal.

    Loving arods spring. That home run today was a thing of beauty. I missed watching that. There are few things in sports more enjoyable to me than an arod no doubter. Most definitely in the minority but I love watching that dude hit baseballs

    Arod got a roll call. Tipped his cap from the bench. Pretty cool.
  • I forgot it was an early game. Shouldn't have planned on writing a position paper today. This guy will be up late. Fuck. Haha

    Haha, That blows. I gotta head to a client meeting in 45 minutes though, which blows. May get 9 holes in after though.

    No way tanaka can be an effective pitcher tossing all soft stuff. Can't be scared of the elbow. Let it go and it's gonna go when it's gonna go

    I watched it all and thought he was fine. Just didn't have pinpoint control. It's early. We will see what happens.

    One out of 162 is early....indeed.

    Yeah, he has a crazy low percentage of fastballs last year too. I just don't know. Not like he is Jamie Moyer, but still scares me throwing 20% fastballs.

    Can't wait to watch tonight. A good dinner, some beers and Yankees baseball.
