    UGH.
    Why is Scott Proctor pitching in a tie game in the 9th?
    We really don't have anybody else, do we?

    Man oh man.... things look bad guys. The Sox lost, so what are we, still 10 back?

    i like joe torre, class guy, good handler of egos and all that stuff. but how can he protect mariano rivera from work when he's pitched once in the last week. i know you save your closer sometimes for a tie game on the road because of the save situation but as soon as the first guy gets on, rivera should have entered the game.

    i love joe torre
    where would this franchise have been without him the last decade.
    oh, and who has to answer to this mess ? I would say Brian Cashman.
    He gave Torre the tools to work with ( scott proctor ? garbage ! )

    i styill find myself wondering why did this go down like it did with bernie williams.


    we actually gavce johnny damon how many million ? :confused:

    52 million. as mentioned in previous portions of this thread, here is cashman's recent track record

    2005 - signed Carl Pavano, fell for the Carlapalooza tour by his agent.
    2005 - gave oft-injured pitcher Jaret Wright three years. To the surprise of nobody he's hurt now even on the Orioles
    2006 - Nothing says eighth inning relief like Kyle Farnsworth. He got three years despite not being so great for the Braves in the 2005 playoffs
    2007 - Kei Igawa - 46 million for an unproven pitcher, who is in his 30s but had to be sent down to work on mechanics.

    My personal favorite was Steve Trout. :rolleyes:

    The decisions that are made between now and the start of next season are gonna be very important. Is Cashman the guy to make those decisions? I don't know. I think he started moving in the right direction this past off season, but mistakes have been made. I would send him on his way. This team has underachieved big time and the players have to take the blame for that, but I don't think Cashman brought in the right mix of players. I think we need a few more guys with energy and fire. And as much as I love Torre and respect his ability to manage and run a team, I kinda wish he would just retire in the off season. I think it may be time to go another direction if for no other reason than to eliminate some of the complacency and to get this team and organization energized again.

    Time for another of those 11 outa 12 streaks (11 wins that is)

    it went on sale on spawn.coms store ,

    it has been going on ebay and at various other stores for upwards of 50- 70 dollars.

    supposebly it is a rarer run and an odd addition to any collection.

    he'll be fine. you try running an offense with the '06 version of john hufnagel calling your plays. see how you like it.

    or you could just continue to troll around in the threads of teams you don't like (whichever you think is a more productive use of your time ;)).

    MRS. A-ROD IS A BRONX F-BOMBER
    OBSCENE SHIRT SHOCKS STADIUM
    By DAN MANGAN and DAVID K. LI

    July 2, 2007 -- Oh, no, she didn't!

    Yankee superstar Alex Rodriguez's long-suffering wife, Cynthia, may have finally flipped her pretty lid yesterday when she went to a game in The Bronx wearing a tight-fitting, white tank top bearing a foul message on the back: "F- - - you."

    The obscene phrase was plainly visible to thousands of fans - including plenty of kids - as she, her 2-year-old daughter, Natasha, and an older woman took their seats in the players' family section of the House that Ruth Built.

    "[One] father, was so embarrassed, he got up and left and took his son," who appeared to be about 10 years old, a fan said.

    "I mean this kid was right in back of Cynthia - his nose must have been about 4 inches away from the words 'F- - - you.' "

    Cynthia's F-word faux pas also may have violated Yankee Stadium policy.

    The team's policy prohibits any banners or signs that are not in "good taste" and also warns that security guards will eject any guests "using foul language" or "making obscene gestures."

    Still, when some fans let nearby security know about Cynthia's four-letter garment yesterday, nothing was done.

    "It was noted by police and security," one fan said. "They were aware of it. I guess they didn't know what to do. I guess you don't kick A-Rod's wife out of the game."

    It's not clear who the target was of Cynthia's F-bomb: Yankee fans, management, the media - or even perhaps her wandering husband.

    But if Cynthia, 34, was trying to light a fire under A-Rod's struggling team with her shocking message, it didn't work - the bumbling Bronx Bombers got thumped 11-5 by the Oakland A's.

    The loss left them four games under .500 and 11 games behind the arch rival Boston Red Sox, who are solidly in first place in the American League East.

    Cynthia's shocking breach of stadium etiquette comes a month after she was publicly humiliated by her straying hubby's catting around the country and Canada with a busty, blond Las Vegas stripper and Playboy wannabe named Joslyn Noel Morse - revealed in a Post exposé.

    Despite - or perhaps because of - those randy revelations, Alex Rodriguez, 31, has been on fire when it comes to the baseball diamond, batting a jaw-dropping, Major League-leading .406 over the last month.

    Howard Rubenstein, the spokesman for Yankees owner George Steinbrenner, last night said he could not reach The Boss or other Bombers executives for comment on Cynthia's sartorial stunt.

    A-Rod's agent, Scott Boras, could not be reached.

    Can she not read english? Why would she wear that to a game? Seriously. She is obviously a mental patient.

    Do you know if can bring outside food to the game? I'm going today to the yankee game. I know you're not from here. I haven't been to a game post 9-11. I'm gonna be there for like 5hrs because it's Old Timer's Day.

    8.5 in the wild card just past the midway mark is still very doable. They need to find a level of consistency.

    Andy got rocked again last night. He's not pitched well as of late. Hope its nothing physically wrong.

    Jul 6 Bryan Hoch, of NewYork.Yankees.MLB.com, reports New York Yankees SP Philip Hughes (hamstring, ankle) has thrown a bullpen session and will continue throwing batting practice at Legends Field. He is aiming for an early August return.

    just showing this on YES just now, ( paul o niels last game, the chants of " paul o niel " fromn the stadium crowd.) This is Paulies first Old Timer appearance.

    and Bobby Murcer is MC'ing the old timer festivities down on field level.

    he really has a great attitude being diagnosed with such a bad sickness.
