So does his bat on the shoulder to end an LCS get brought up as a symbol of franchise failure every 20 minutes like Beltran's did/has/still is

Congrats to Jeff Francoeur, Darren Oliver and Darren O'Day.

And, as Jon Heyman points out, mazel tov to Ian Kinsler.

Remember, he's not a Real Yankee TM. Also, "27 RINGS BAY-BEEE!!!!" And other assorted Yankees BS.

Ginger Ale celebration. I like that!

Watching the MFY's trudge from the field as losers is always a treat but the scenes in Texas are just great, my new AL team.....FU old AL team I liked.....Greg Sager is such a nut, gotta like the nutter.

[Frayed Knot]

Well, Houston got to a World Series first but the stRangers can claim bragging rights even if they don't win simply by not getting swept and being the first Texas team to win a WS game

No new uniform number for Girardi next year.

[G-Fafif]

God called -- He exists.

He still has to worry about just getting a uniform next year.

Also, last game for Pettitte? ... there's talk he may retire.
Last MFY game for Jeter? ... highly doubt it, but his is going to be one interesting contract negotiation

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

So all the Rangers needed all these years was to have a former Met running the team. Nolan wants his second ring!

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Jon Daniels price to be GM just went up a little.

[Willets Point]

There's an American League Championship trophy? I thought they just got a pennant. I must be old school.

[G-Fafif]

Lovely Angel-istic moment shared between Mrs. Autry and Mr. Ryan. Don't forget to thank Bob Scheffing.

[Frayed Knot]

Ryan may have a pot belly and several heart procedures under his ample belt, but he still looks like a tough ol' bird.

I thought he was going to ask Ron about the coke....

Coke...Canada Dry...it's all good.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Good for Hamilton.

[G-Fafif]

I love Josh Hamilton's teammates, too.

[Guest Number 6]

Too bad official Yankee Elimination Day skipped a year. I almost forgot how good it feels. Siddown, fuckers.

When the Yanks board a plane
With no sign of champagne
That's logistics!

When they go to spring train
With a loss on the brain
That's logistics!

Psst... That's Mo there...

[Guest Edgy DC]

"Mo"? Are you on nickname basis with these guys?

It's a monument talking to him. What does a monument know?

[Valadius]

I went to bed early last night, but woke up early to find that dreams do come true.

[MFS62]

Looking back on this series, the only thing I regret was that flat-hat Joba didn't take more of a pounding.
