    Yanks need Joe Girardi SOON!
    A little firey leadership from Jeter wouldn't hurt either
    PJ - 36
    EV - 5

    Yanks have been beating themselves. Check out these stats....

    4 Blown saves
    Only team in MLB without a save
    79 pitching changes (most in MLB)
    16 errors in 19 games. (6 by Jeter)
    Players who have missed games due to injury...Damon, Matsui, Posada, Pavano, Mussina, Karstens, Wang
    A manager who occasionaly falls asleep on the bench
    3 come from behind wins
    2 walk offs by A-Rod. (if it wasn't for him the team would be 4-15)
    PJ - 36
    EV - 5

    really? not even one measly save? jeez. but it comes down to pitching judgement and cashman's recent track record is well shaky would be putting it nicely..

    What did you want from him, to come storming in throw a few punches and be suspended for a month? Maybe go in swinging a bat since Toughnuts Varitek had his full gear of catchers equipment on?

    anyone still using the lame excuses that the only reason boston won was because the yanks pitchers were aa?
    Let's not be negative now. Thumper has spoken

    Mussina is pitching in Trenton on Friday and will rejoin the Yanks for the Texas series May 1-3.

    I'm still not worried about this team. They are getting healthy and will right the ship. Excited to see Hughes pitch tomorrow night.

    As far as Jeter's leadership goes. He isn't an in your face kinda guy. He leads by example and I'm sure he does a lot that you don't see or hear about. Every one has their own style. That doesn't mean he isn't a good leader. Their are other guys on this team who fill the "in your face" role. Everything I have read about Posada says that he is that guy. Judging by remarks that Mussina made about Pavano earlier in the year, I think he fills some of that role as well. This team isn't a bunch of emotional players. They reflect the style of their captain and their manager. You can argue whether that is good or not, but the team has won something like 11 straight Division titles.
    Going back to the whole bench clearing brawl example someone brought up, I have actually seen guys protecting Jeter and trying to keep him away from the melee during a brawl as opposed to helping the player actually involved in the fight. That says a lot about what they think of him.
