Miranda has the right to remain struck out. -
I saw it earlier too. Nyjer's one of those guys who's likable and fun to have on your team until you see him for a while. Problem is he's not very good and has even been getting benched lately.
-
We gotta start getting these bottom of the order pinheads out!!
-
The odds of that being made are remote: lots of money, both have NT clauses, Beltran returning to the scene of his "crime" (leaving via FA), Oswalt reportedly not wanting NE cities, etc., but that's a helluva challenge trade.
-
I like Bay busting it home there just in case Angel tried for 2nd and there was a tag play.
-
All right guys (JB & TMc) calm down - he caught a freakin' pop-up!
-
'e's enrry the ace he is / 'enrry the ace he is he is ...
-
We weren't getting two on that one, but I thought Davis had the play at 2nd if he took it.
-
Where the fuck were those last two pitches?!?
-
Hey, Reyes didn't pop up! Should have saved those fireworks for this.
-
Reed & Turk look like they've been killing a lot of game ... and eating most of it too.
-
I agree. Yeah Mejia probably won't have the career of Oswalt but he very well might have the career of Oswalt from this point forward!! Or, put another way, is Roy Oswalt *Right Now* worth essentially a $29mil/2-yr FA contract (or 3-yrs/$43) AND Jennry Mejia? I'm not sure he's worth either much less both. And I think Houston would be all over that offer like white on Rice University.

Good so far: - Pelfrey getting lots 'o grounders - scoring two after two out and none on Bad so far: - Third out at 3B killed what could have been a larger rally - walking the #8 hitter w/2 outs and allowing the Yanx to clear the pitcher's spot
-
Whoever had '5th batter' in the when will the Yanx have their first pitching coach visit question, please come to the window to collect your winnings. Betting is still open for over/under wagers of the number of mound conferences during the game - currently set at 37.

Ashie62 wrote: The inmates are running the asylum Let's review here; Maine doesn't want to come out of the game, doesn't want to get examined, and doesn't want to be put on the DL but all those happen anyway. So how does this add up to the inmates running things?

You'd be getting a guy on the downside while still paying him for his slipping-into-the-past prime. He also has a no-trade deal so could pick and choose the clubs he wants and speculation has it that he's not a big city, east-coast kinda guy.

Jeter's contract - the one just now running out - was more a matter of Steinbrenner short-sightedness than Jeter greed. They could have signed him far cheaper but George took things year by year with him until a year prior to his FA season*, plus he also had this thing about wanting it to appear that he wasn't "setting the standard" for contracts. So what they did was wait until ARod signed his first and when Texas blew everyone out of the water with their 10/252 deal the Yanx were forced to up their's so Jeter's contract would at least approach the other one. * He did the same thing with Mattingly years earlier then finally signed him to a long-term deal just as his started downhill. George then got pissed that he was over-paying and turned on Mattingly late in his career.
