If I read all the newspapers and reports right today....
Ross Ohlendorf, Jose Veras, & Chris Britton made the postseason roster.
Bruney and Ramirez were sent home.
Ohlendorf, Veras and Britton will join Joba, Mo, Villone, Vizciano, Farnsworth in the pen. 5 starters still on roster....Wang, Pettitte, Clemens, Mus, Hughes.
The right moves!! - anyone else here this??
Also any word on Ian Kennedy?

I believe Ohlendorf, Veras, Britton, and Villone are all in the mix for the final 2 bullpen spots. They all won't make it.
Times are different than usual to say the least. Beats the hell out of starting at 8:30 though. I'm sure all times are subject to change, depending on if other series are over
It's too bad ramirez has such trouble throwing strikes. If he could keep teh walks down, he could be a huge asset. maybe next year
it's not just the walks. he lacks command overall and has a tendency to leave his fastball in the middle of the plate. at 91 MPH, it's fast enough to compliment his great change. he just needs to locate it better.
he also needs to work on his slider. this or any other third pitch would be very helpful for him, because right now he's way too predictable.
a lot of scouts think he's gonna be very good when he figures it all out. but there's no reason to force him onto the postseason roster at this point.

I also think he's too thin, which limits what he can do mechanically in terms of generating enough arm speed and force to properly locate the fastball.

Wow, 7 of ESPN's 10 experts are predicting the Indians will win the series. One of those so called experts is Steve Phillips (how's that Yanks won't make the postseason prediction, Steve) though, so we'll make it 6 out 9.
I'm sure this is MLB mandated and not from the yankees, but do we really need "Yankees 2007 Wild Card" paraphanalia? I mean, c'mon! It's the yankees. Celebrating the wild card?
odds are in, Yankees are 7-5 to win the AL pennant and 3-1 to win it all, the favorite. The Red Sox are 8-5 to win the AL, 7-2 to win the AL. The Rockies are the longshot at 20-1. The Cubs are 8-1

5 out of 8 if we take out gammons too.
"OMG!!!!!!!!!!111!! but he's a pearl jam fan!!!!!!!!!111111" :rolleyes:
nobody who works for ESPN should ever be considered an expert under any circumstances.
harold reynolds was really good. that's probably why they fired him. :rolleyes:
It is funny that vegas oddsmakers have installed The Yankees as the favorite to win both the ALCs and the World Series, but 70% of ESPN's "experts" have them losing in the 1st round. I do think the Indians will be tough, though. If Game 1 is huge. It'll be tough for the Tribe to win 3/4, with 2 in Yankee Stadium. Let's hope Hafner stays cool, as he has been all year. Let's also hope that CC hasn't learned how to beat the Yanks over the last 3 years, a she's 1-7 against them but hasn't pitched against them since 2004

well the indians have a good team, and wang's ability to pitch on the road worries me.
the other part of it is that no one wants to hear why the yankees are gonna win. ESPN knows this as well as anyone. it doesn't make for good reporting. people watch the playoffs to see the yankees lose. a great use of their time, i'm sure.
the fact that sabathia hasn't faced the yankees since '04 might be a cause for concern. the yankees don't do well against pitchers they haven't seen, and in this case we're talking about one of the best in the league. also, they were terrible all year against lefties on the road.
lol... you called him a "she." i don't even think it was on purpose either. that's what makes it so funny.
ticketmaster released tier 18 seats for the public sale after only LF bleacher seats were made available for the lottery sale?
wow. who should i be mad at about this? ticketmaster or the yankees?
i have a friend who ordered his tickets two days before i did because he has a partial season plan, and even he didn't get seats as good as tier 18.
well... congrats on that at any rate...
Yeah, I was pretty surprised that I got those within seconds of the general on sale. As scary as it sounds, it might have been the best Ticketmaster experience I've had.

CT based ESPN hates the yanks. There are many New Englanders within those so called experts.
Though I must say after what happened last year with Detroit I am nervous.

I believe Ohlendorf, Veras, Britton, and Villone are all in the mix for the final 2 bullpen spots. They all won't make it.
Thursday Yankees Indians 6:30 p.m. Wang (19-7) Sabathia (19-7)
Friday Yankees Indians 5:00 p.m. Pettitte (15-9) Carmona (19-8)
Sunday Indians Yankees 6:30 p.m. Westbrook (6-9) Clemens (6-6)
Monday Indians Yankees 6:00 p.m. Byrd (15-8) Mussina (11-10)
Wednesday Yankees Indians TBD

There's still a chance he could try them for the AlCS if they advance. And I'm pretty sure they might be brought along to experience it.
correct. it would give them 13 pitchers if they all made it, which would make no sense. joe has already said that they're going to be carrying 11.
forget about chris britton making the postseason roster. the team jet has a weight limit.
i'm rooting for ohlendorf to make it.
it's not just the walks. he lacks command overall and has a tendency to leave his fastball in the middle of the plate. at 91 MPH, it's fast enough to compliment his great change. he just needs to locate it better.

nah, edwar can't afford to eat there. he only makes about $360,000 a year.
i'll tell you though, that 42 oz porterhouse sounds good. they say it's for two... we'll see about that!
$88 is a lot of money for a steak though. i could damn near get a box seat for that price.
