    Tex retiring. Big fan. Crazy how little turnover the yanks have had at 1st in my lifetime. Bird's turn...

    Wow. Tex was a beast. This is definitely a surprise.
    I think it's a mild-surprise. His body has taken a beating the last few seasons.

    He had a real nice career.
    Yeah, he hasn't been able to stay on the field consistently for a long time. Contract is up. I imagine he's tired of always being injured.

    Nice win last night. Go figure we can beat Cleveland but get swept by Tampa a week ago.
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......

    Sanchez hitting well means even less at bats for Alex. Less than zero

    ARod and the Yankees are meeting the media Sunday morning. That doesn't sound good

    The only good to possibly come out of the press conference tomorrow is if they fire Girardi and hire Alex as a player manager.

    Gotta think this is it. Just hope he finishes out the year. I want to see one more home run...or 4

    I hope they actually let him play. Haven't been this sad about a player retiring since Don Mattingly. #Yankees

    Cashman putting the ring on the table is possibly my favorite thing ever

    I remember in 2009 I believe when he need 2 hr and 7 rbi to continue his streak of consecutive 30/100. And in the final game against the Rays he got it. I could see his last game being like that to get to 700

    Yes. Let him fucking play. You already threw in the towel by selling at the deadline, put him in the damn lineup.

    Hopefully he gets to pinch hit today so the fans can give him a goodbye
