    What I don't get is if Jeter says the other day that 'it's not Torre's fault...he's not even on the field', then how can all of this be attributed to the strength coach, when the guy's not even in the dugout??? these are pro athletes for christ sakes!
    I love to turn you on

    Abreu,Damon, Matsui are both 1 for the last 89 i think. A-rod and Cano are not hitting so well now either. Might be time to send this new hitting coach packing as well.

    damon is injured. he should be on the DL because he's completely useless right now. but at any rate, that's why he's not hitting. matsui had two doubles this afternoon, so maybe he's starting to turn it around. i don't know what the hell is wrong with abreu. he looks completely lost out there.



    BTW, they're saying that game 2 is going to start 45 minutes to an hour late because of the rain.

    bobby abreu: strained oblique
    chien-ming wang: strained hamstring
    jeff karstens: strained forearm, broken leg (obviously not the coach's fault)
    johnny damon: two strained calves, strained back muscle (i think?)
    hideki matsui: strained hamstring
    carl pavano: strained forearm
    mike mussina: strained hamstring
    phil hughes: strained hamstring

    am i missing any?

    that's a lot of muscle strains, especially this early in the season. maybe those injuries weren't the strength and conditioning coach's fault, but it's certainly not that big of a stretch (no pun intended) to assume that some of them were.

    johnny damon said that he opted out of the strength coach's program because he didn't think it was working for him. he reached this decision after straining both of his calf muscles on opening day.

    the yankees' slow start clearly has very little (if anything) to do with cashman or torre. that's all i know.

    George was mad so they had to fire somebody.

    They're starting the 2nd game now.

    Darrell Rasner will start Sunday and Matt DeSalvo will go on Monday. Looks like we will have a 6 man rotation for at least a week. Also, Pavano wants to see Dr. Andrews. We know how that usually turns out.

    Anyone seeing this game vs Seattle? This is absurd! 15-11 and they still might tie it up...

    Indeed. Things do not bode well in Yankee world. :( They had the bases loaded, and Damon popped up and walked off the field limping, and then Derek went 0-for 6 to end his hitting streak and the game.

    Myers did well tonight (Friday). He's pitching more than he has last year.

    Yes, but that wasn't the point of what I said. You don't see that everyday.

    Being superstitous, I will not say why, but everyone should probably put the yankee game on now
