    can you elaborate on this, Cliffy?

    and would the Yanks ever lose a game on purpose, while watching the scoreboard ?

    More details tomorrow, I guess. My worry is that this will cause him not to come back. He talks about the stress of the job from time to time and this certainly won't help.

    Haha, I don't know. Or they can just run out of pitchers and force Proctor to throw 50 something pitches. That will do it.

    Fans seem to be nervous about this series. Don't get me wrong, Detroit has some good pitching but the Yanks are a damn good team.

    OK I heard something on the Yankees radio station down here today so can I get some verification from you young computer wizards.

    Not sure if I heard this right but...Last night was the first time in 925 STRAIGHT games the Yankees lost a game with a 7 run lead after 8 or 9 innings is that right? If that's true THAT's an amazing streak.

    Though I'd say in a 5 game series, the one team this year I wouldn't want to see is Detroit - just because I think Verlander could have that much of an effect on that kind of a series.

    not gonna be easy..we need to work his pitch count big time..

    great challenge for our offense

    cabrera has protection in the order now

    its all about nova...even if we split the verlander games we can take the series with nova beating their 2nd guy...i know nothing about him but i guess he is good


    should be interesting

    Their second guy is Doug Fister, who's no slouch. So I wouldn't say that just winning every game that Verlander doesn't pitch is an easy task.

    Still, I'm pretty confident in their chances.

    He'll be pitching at home. I think he'll be comfortable.

    No doubt. They are going to have to beat Verlander once to win the series. Can't rely on beating everyone else.
