    I can't believe our bullpen just gave up a 5 run lead & 3 HR's to Tampa Bay!!!!!!!
    =(


    Robbie Cano to the rescue......just hit a pinch hit HR as I was typing.
    My lips are shaking.......
  • Too bad that Cervelli got his wrist busted in spring training. This would be the perfect chance to see what he's got. The other prospect they have, Montero, isn't ready, (just 18 or 19) but he's the guy I expect to be groomed by Posada in a few years.

    cervelli wouldn't have been ready anyway. he's never played above single-A, and it usually takes catchers a long time to develop. 2010 at the earliest.

    montero is raking at single-A charleston. 18-51 (.353), 2 HR, 12 RBI. his bat could get him to the majors pretty quickly, but not if they want him to remain at catcher.

    i missed the postgame... what's the word on kennedy's injury?
  • yea!!!!!!!

    He had a ball hit him in the side but it does not look like anything that will cause him to miss a start.

    Probably hurt like hell though.

    Thoughts are with Joba and his dad now. :(

    Nice to see Cano get the big hit last night. He has been struggling. I heard the Sterling call on the radio this morning. He is so bad that you almost look forward to hearing him make a fool of himself. Its like the car accident that you can't turn away from.

    I went to bed when it was 7-2, but I thought Kennedy pitched very well.

    Hopefully last night was the start of a hot streak for A-Rod. I just traded for him in my fantasy league. I had to give up Brad Penny and Jeff Francoeur.

    I can't believe we are playing the Sawx in a Wednesday/Thursday 2 game set. What is up with these 2 game sets??

    Great job by Pettitte tonight. He got hit pretty good in the first few innings, but last 7 strong innings. That helps a lot when they are in this stretch of playing 21 straight days.

  • yea...!

    5-3

    Melky leading off tonight and Damon with a night off.

    The Hawkins thing is pretty messed up I think. Booing him because he sucks is one thing, but booing him for wearing O'Neil's # is too much. He has a hell of a good reason for wearing #21 in honoring Roberto Clemente.

    Is it just me or is there something really anticlimactic about this "series" against the Sox thrown in the middle of the week?

  • it will be hilarious if tonight when Hawkins gets the call from the bullpen, the stadium chants R0-ger---Cle-mens

    I agree - I wish it was on the weekend.
    Also, the Devil-Ranger game is on tonight.

    Goes from a complete game 2 hitter vs the Sox to giving up several leads (including a 4 run lead) and doesn't make it through 5.

    Tough indeed - to be a #1 guy in the rotation, you need to be a little more consistent.
