    Agreed. Pettitte and Jeter completely made me lose it. I can't stop crying right now.

    That was even better than the other "42" ceremony the other day.

    Loved when he went back to the mound for some dirt,
    i thought he was taking the rubber.

    Wow. Thank you, Mariano. I'm almost 21, so my memories of the Yankees have always included Mo. Only attended 1 game this season, really really glad I got to see Mariano pitch in it.

  • Trivia time this was in the daily news today good luck :lol:

    The last time a mathematically eliminated Yankees team played a home game was 10/3/1993 who was the starting pitcher that day?

    Cash should've extended him a few years ago, not as bad but we're going to have to overpay for DRobb and Gardy after next year as well. He continually fails to lock in our key players and it comes back to bite us in the ass. I hope the yankees seriously consider replacing not only cashman but Oppenheimer who has failed to deliver any serious major talent since he got promoted after the 2005 season. Every year it's the same line our best players are in the lower levels. With the resources the Yankees have we should have a top farm system instead oppy reaches in the first round for players that aren't even worth a top 10 round pick. I liked the last draft but the lack of major league talent in our upper levels is a fucking joke. We need a complete overhaul of our player development system and heads need to roll to make that happen.

    Sounds like Oppenheimer and Newman may be out. That would be a huge change.

    Awesome news if it winds up being true.

    Agreed. And they have a lot of players eligible for the Rule 5 draft next year, so should be interesting.
  • Some interesting guys on the rule 5 list, anyway cubs fired sveum will be interesting to see what Girardi does.

    If Girardi doesn't come back. Would you take Willie? I don't think they'll go to Pena.

    No don't want him or Pena , Donnie will be in the discussion as he's a free agent as well and I'm sure scioscia will be a top candidate if the angels fire him. At least there's no chance of bobby v. :lol:

    Oh, I was going to ask if Mattingly was a free agent. Good-bye Girardi.

    It would be great to see Donnie come back home where he belongs.
