cano is definitely on his way to being a HOF 2B, in my opinion

Wheels have fallen off the cart for the Sox. 2-8 for the last 10 isn't what we'd hoped for after the rock solid start.

great hyperbole, batman!
No hyperbole suggested. I will be quite surprised if Chamberlain is a member of the Yankees' organization next year.
His ceiling at this point is being a set-up man, and even that's far from a sure thing. Yankees have tired of his antics, and the recent incident is just another example of the kind of boorish behavior that leads them to that conclusion. He never fit in with the team culture and he's clearly too much of a headcase to thrive in NYC.

excellent article expressing the same views i was talking about in terms of the yankees and their out of nowhere success this year with the cast of bandaids and cano

the yanks allowed 1 run over 18 innings yesterday. 22 scoreless innings in a row now for the bullpen. They're doing a great job so far. Granderson will be back today, so at least some semblance of normalcy will return to the lineup.
And still lost one of the games. Ichiro is gone from my fantasy team asap. Not even pulling his weight as a 4th OF.
that loss yesterday was brutal. They couldn't get anything going against masterson.
Ichiro is gonna be a platoon player once granderson starts

Yankees come back against the mariners but Jim johnson blows a save for my fantasy team
Phil Hughes sucked ass
Sox remembered how to actually play baseball last night.

For one half inning, sure.
Good point on the half inning thing as far as the hitting goes AK
but they actually pitched and caught it well the whole game (something they haven't been able to do consistently in some time).
bad pitcher going tonight though in doubront, so it'll likely just be a blip of hope in what will probly be a season of mediocrity

Will Middlebrooks actually stays back on an off speed pitch! thank you jesus
From the ESPN recap:
In 2007, I knew the Sox were going to win the World Series by this time in the season. The reason was their ability to score late in games. Virtually any game that wasn't a blow out was going to the result in a Sox win. The BP was as solid as I'd ever seen and they could score on other team's bullpens at will.
I'm hoping that this is a start of a new trend.

this team has nowhere near the offensive firepower the 2007 team did
and the 07 bullpen was way more consistent and had a reliable closer (Pap). It's looking more and more every day like they shoulda just bit the bullet and signed him to the mariano-esque deal that he was looking for

Kuroda damn sure pitches like an ace on a regular basis. Love that guy
Meanwhile the Sox pick up their 3rd straight in an extra innings nail biter.
yankees win again! I can't wait to see what this team looks like when all of the injured players come back from the DL. Girardi has pushed every button to make this team go, and a lot of the farm hands called up have delivered
A lot of the farm hands?
Oh, and the O's are on the skids...the rotation is a trainwreck.
quote:They've been playing at least 6 call ups. I remember reading that they had 6 players make their MLB debut in the last 40 days, which is nuts
A lot of the farm hands?
Yeah but you said "delivered", which I guess is defined by expectations.
The Yanks are where they are because of Overbay, Wells, and Hafner.

they have all delivered. Each of them has made nice, positive contributions
That's cool...not why the Yanks have done well, tho.
****ing jim johnson is destorying my fantasy team singlehandedly
god, if you're listening, please let jim johnson get this save
