    I don't know of any other team that comes into seasons with too much pitching like the yankees do and somehow before June are short on arms. Seems like this shit happens every year. :?

    I hope Robertson isn't on the DL for very long. It's hard to believe that a year ago people were questioning why the team signed Soriano and now he's the best healthy option they have to close out games for at least the next 2 weeks. He's not a bad option to have, but I don't think too many people thought they'd need him in that role with Mo and Robertson around.

    Where do you guys get this stuff from? Are you 12 year olds? The guy hit 39 HR last year with 111 RBI. 39!!!!! The year before that he hit 33/108. He hasn't hit less than 30 HR's or had less than 100 RBI since his rookie season (2003) when he hit 26/84!!!!

    Yes, he's no longer a .300 hitter. But, to say he is not a good hitter and you want a 35 HR/110 RBI guy to be hitting 7th just makes you look silly. He's a notoriously slow starter.

    I agree he's no longer the ideal #3 hitter. But, he's either a 4 or a 5, and only because of the team he's on.

    Don't be one of those people. On top of which, even if he started hitting "only" upper 20 HR, he's one of the best fielding 1B in the game today.
    Sorry. The world doesn't work the way you tell it to.

    Awful hitting. Another good start by Hughes. They're now what? 3 for their last 41 with RISP?

    Yeah, not sure what to say about this season so far. Frustrating to watch, so damn inconsistent. That said, I think this is the weekend they turned it around in 2009 so hopefully they can get it together soon. Tough season so far though. The last 2 nights have been brutal.

    They were 13-15 in their first 28 games without Alex Rodriguez. They went to 15-17 and then won eight in a row and 17 of 23 before getting swept in Boston. That was part of eight losses in 12 games that made their record 38-32. After that point, they won 13 of 18 going into the All-Star break. Following the break, they won 40 of their next 53 games, going into mid-Sept.
