Yankees play-by-play man John Sterling, on how he'll call Derek Jeter taking over the Yankees mark for career hits. (Mark Feinsand, New York Daily News, as re-printed in Baseball Prospectus) "I like things to be spontaneous. Besides, there's not much you can do with it. The number one Yankee in hits in history? The names are Gehrig, Ruth, DiMaggio and Mantle�what an honor. What else is there to say?" ******************************** Is he fucking kidding? This is John Sterling we're talking about. He knows his call will be replayed on hundreds, if not thousands, of stations. And those of us who have endured his self-promotional calls over the years know he's already been rehearsing his call for at least three months. Later

What I'd love to happen to Jeter does involve iron, and lightning. But there may be wimmins and chillins reading this. So, use your own imaginations. Later

Well, there's the NCIS marathon for a while (you can't just eat one pistachio). Then, maybe some work around the house. How about you? Later

I have nothing against them as individuals. If they're going to pick up some major league cash, that's fine. But, other than Kunz, they are known qualtities. As a fan of a team with a lot of needs, I'd rather they be seeing what some other players can do. Major league playing time is precious. Its better to use it to evaluate some kids. Later
-
Why bother? I would hope that none of those Buffalo players would be competing for a spot on the 40 man roster next year, even Kunz. Isn't the call up season traditionally the time when you check out the prospects? This is sad. Later

I know its a bad translation, but I can't imagine that Otero ever played in a "large" League. I saw a Binhmanton game in which Otero, and Q. Veras all played . I was sitting in field level seats and I had to look down to see them. They were so short they were dimensionally challenged. Too bad to hear about him this way. Later

Actually, a statue to the original pre and post game radio crew would be interesting. It included, IIRC, Howard Cosell (or Maybe Marty Glickman), ex-tennis player Gussie Moran and one more person. I'm thinkin' that was Ralph Branca. There's a better chance that statue would be done, since Branca was an ex-Dodger. (Sorry, Kase, couldn't resist ). Later

At this rate of improvement, he seems a good candidate for the HOF. Later
-
He still appears to have problems getting a jump on ground balls to his left. His hands and arm look ok for short, but still, its that range thingie. OK backup I guess. Later
-
Nice debut, kid. Keep it up. Later

I wonder which sports jacket they'd have Lindsay wearing. Later

Not enough of the promised anatomy jokes. Its not game time yet, go back to the bullpen and warm up some more. Oh, OK. Great job, especially since you admitted you're not at full throttle. Later

Yikes! I forgot to list two of my Upper Manhattan homeys - Manny and Carew. Later

He finished the night with 4-5, including 2 doubles and the dinger. Later

Memo to Mets outfielders: Wear your roller skates tonight. I have a feelin'. Later

Hit his first AA dinger tonight. You go, kid. Later

Looks like I also forgot our old pals Braden Looper and Aaron Heilman. Later

I was going to post his year's stats, but got that weird message mentioned in the Admin forum. I'll try again when its fixed. Later
