    Phenomenal. I get to listen to Vin Scully call it too. Sports does not get better.

    Jeter pulled for a pinch runner. Wow. That is depressing.

    As awesome as Puig is, he seems to be a bit reckless.

    Good win

    From espn

    TAMPA, Fla. -- The way Buck Showalter sees it, Alex Rodriguez's possible suspension would mean that the New York Yankees would end up with Baltimore Orioles catcher Matt Wieters in two years.

    If Rodriguez is suspended for all of next season, the Yankees would not have to pay the embattled slugger's $25 million salary for 2014. The unpaid money would not count against the luxury tax and revenue sharing, which would make it much easier for the Yankees to fall under team owner Hal Steinbrenner's goal of a $189 million payroll for 2014.

    Showalter, the Baltimore Orioles' manager, told USA Today Sports that if commissioner Bud Selig suspends Rodriguez, it is unfair that the Yankees would benefit financially.

    "If Bud lets them get away with that, they're under the luxury tax," the Orioles manager told USA Today. "If they can reset, they can spend again, and I guarantee you in two years Matt Wieters is in New York."

    If the Yankees fell beneath the $189 million limit next season, they would significantly increase their luxury tax savings under the terms of the collective bargaining agreement.

    The Yankees would be subject to a 50 percent luxury tax if their payroll was over the $189 million threshold. But if they were under $189 million, the Yankees' luxury tax would roll back to 17 percent, making it easier for them to be free spenders.

    The 27-year-old Wieters, who will be eligible for free agency after the 2015 season, is batting .239 with 14 home runs and 49 RBIs this year.

    Buck was sure quiet last year when the Red Sox's got bailed out.

    Buck loves to hear himself talk, doesn't he? He's probably still bitter that he was fired from the Yankees.

    Maybe if he gave Strawberry a start in the 95 playoffs instead of sticking w/ Dion James & Randy Verlarde.. :fp:
