yeah, but you guys still get it done. it amazes me how many times the sox have been down in games only to come back in the 7th, 8th, or 9th to win it. anyone that's beating boston in the last 3 innings and starts to relax ends up getting bit on the ass. it's the complete opposite in the bronx. they get down by a run or two and that's it. it's kind of like the entire team folds. it's sickening.
i wish paul o'neill was still playing. we need someone with his passion in that dugout and on the field.
hey, does anyone know what the pay schedule is with ball players? my wife was asking how often do they get paid and i didn't have an answer for her. i mean, do they get a weekly check? monthly?

well, that's character in the clubhouse ... Varitek, Youkilis, Ortiz, Lowell ... on down the line ... fire, tenacity ... it's why Youkilis got in a scuffle with Manny and why Manny was dealt ... laziness, give up ... doesn't play in that club house ... ask Nomar.

I can't believe the Yanks likely might not make the playoffs. :(
that is so bogus!
you know what I think, I hate to say it but I think it's Tampa Bay's year. Every other team that's never won or hasn't won in eons got their shot (ie: the White Sox, the Red Sox)...it's Tampa Bay this year and then Speedy's Cubbies are going to get a shot.
And we are NEVER going to get to or win a WS as long as A-Rod is on the team. I've said it before in here and I believe he is a jinx on the entire team.
The year he leaves=next time we win WS
And Girardi is so fired.

and I really dont see Torre laughing..I think he might actually be feeling bad for his boys like Jete and Mo Jorge, etc for haviing to deal with this bullshit Torre always been and always be a class act

you don't think the Steinbrenner's aren't going to fire Girardi? That's classic. They have to blame someone. I don't think it's all his fault but I think it's a possiblity. Last year's team had injuries too and they eeked into the playoffs.

what may hurt even more is that Atlanta flipped Renteria for two very good young players, SP Jair Jurrjens and SS Yunel Escobar. Terrible move by Detroit
Is it me,...or has basically every move cashman made the past 4-5 years failed??? Except Abreu and I do think Girardi is the man. Other than that every other move did not live up to expectations. & pretty much every move boston made worked out favorably to them. Even this year. Bay has had great games vs. the Yanks already and hit pretty clutch. Pudge? 0 for 85
I was thinking about that after my post...maybe Cashman shouldn't be back. he gets all the credit for the 98,99, and 00 championships, but he won them with Gene Michael and Buck Showalters team. and Bob Watson. Maybe it's time for a change. Buck Showalter for GM?
I think Hughes should be called up for the next turn. I'm not sure if he should take Rasner or Ponson's spot yet.
couldn't agree more. I'd so much rather take a shot with him, and even Kennedy who's become a bit of a pariah, than Ponson and Rasner. Speaking of Cashman, the main reason for him to go is that he's been stockpiling pitchers for years, and yet Ponson and Rasner are making 40% of this teams starts. I know that's because Joba and Wang are hurt, but still....He should have a much more reliable Plan B, C, D, E, F and G.

no chance Girarid gets fired. Hank has already thrown in the towel on this season, and absolved Girardi of any blame. Not that Hank's word means anything after the "if he opts out, he's not coming back" fiasco.

I think cause most of the young pitchers have either come out of major surgery or have been injured. I don't know why they haven't given Chase Wright another shot. They still can't be punishing him for giving 4 homers back to back in Boston.

I don't think that means anything, esp if they really dont' make the playoffs for the first time, since...when? mid 90's? I think Joe has a shot of getting canned. they have to 'blame' someone, it's the 'Steinbrenner way' I don't think they should do that at all, he can only do so much with an injured and aged pitching staff, but I think it is a possibility.
I just hope they go after more quality pitchers in the off season and not focus on the star hitters SO much. We have enough hitters, we need more quality/reliable pitching.

They also came into this season with the possibility of not going into the playoffs. Because of starting the season with 2 rookies pitchers. Then moving Joba in there later. Not knowing if Mussina will pitch any better than last year.

I had a feeling they were going to compete this year. Especially the way they were playing late last year. But 1st place is a surprise. The fact that they're still there is even more surprising.
wow, now that's predictable. a Sox win, and you're back. 4.34 ERA, over 20+ starts. And Byrd was only good lasy year cause he was on HGH. Off the HGH, he's a joke. Have fun watching that.
I did have fun watching Byrd last night.
Sorry, I know it's a rough stretch for you guys, but I couldn't resist.
They need this year to end and then start over a bit.
Joe Girardi is the man. I beleive he did not properly get to use his baseball smarts this year with this team. He needs a Girardi team, not a cashman torre team.
Girardi needs guiys like him that show emotion and bust their ass to win games. That being said i'm not sure cashman is the man to provide the yanks with that sort of team. I say that only based on what he has provided.
ie,....giambi, kevin brown, jaret wright, damon, arod, pudge, pavano, on and on and on
At the end of this year Girardi and the beginning of next, the yankee staff need to let these guys know this high paid celebrity in NY type baseball is over. I'd take 9 Scott Brosious over 9 Damon, Arods, Giambi's ANYDAY!
btw....2 more K's for Arod today. 1st inning was a rally killer.

They need this year to end and then start over a bit.
Joe Girardi is the man. I beleive he did not properly get to use his baseball smarts this year with this team. He needs a Girardi team, not a cashman torre team.
Girardi needs guiys like him that show emotion and bust their ass to win games. That being said i'm not sure cashman is the man to provide the yanks with that sort of team. I say that only based on what he has provided.
ie,....giambi, kevin brown, jaret wright, damon, arod, pudge, pavano, on and on and on
At the end of this year Girardi and the beginning of next, the yankee staff need to let these guys know this high paid celebrity in NY type baseball is over. I'd take 9 Scott Brosious over 9 Damon, Arods, Giambi's ANYDAY!
btw....2 more K's for Arod today. 1st inning was a rally killer.
As for 2008 --- Lets go CUBS!

I'd exclude Damon. He's old but he still busts it consistently, age is his problem, but agree with the rest.

Things happen in the game. Nothing you
can do. I don't go and say,
"I'm gonna beat this guy up."
why doesn't Pedroia head back to the dugout, then maybe grab some popcorn with the Bleacher Creatures on his way to 3rd.
Seriously though, can't blame a guy for trying, but what are the umps watching? And these guys complained about instant replay?
