But that is only so far and it is still April, I don't see anyone making predictions for the entire season off the first month. They've just been real good thus far, I mean everyone is talking about how crazy A-Rod is playing right now, but I don't think anyone thinks he is going to break the HR record or something. |

Let me just point out in the Yankees defense that most of their starters really can't make it to the 7th. I mean we've got rookies like Chase and Karstens and a relief man named Igawa pitching. For the Red Sox it's different all of them are proven starters. For us 3 of our starters could make it to the 7th Wang Andy and probably Moose. God only knows how long Pavano will be out now. Our relievers right about now suck. All I'm hoping is that we turn things around or DFA Mike Myers. I swear to god if I was the coach he would of been DFA'D the second he gave that Grand Slam to Crawford. |

Why not? I could easily see A-Rod hitting 50 or even 60 home runs. He's hit 50 before. He's one of the best hitters of all time, and one of the best home run hitters of all time. There's no denying his talent. If anyone could do it, he could.
We'll be fine. There's no need for alarm right now. We had a crap April last year and I believe the year before. We just got Matsui and Wang back. Mussina will be back soon, and so will Pavano (hopefully). Hughes is the best pitching prospect in all of baseball. Pettitte has been solid and should continue to be. There's no need to worry about Rivera or Jeter's defense. The pen is overworked, that's why they keep blowing games. Once Wang, Mussina and Pettitte (possibly Hughes and Pavano too) give the pen some rest they'll improve. I envision the rotation as shaping out like this: Wang Mussina Pettitte Hughes Pavano Shift Igawa to the pen as the long man, DFA Myers and sign Ron Villone, who tore it up in spring. Rest Vizcaino, Proctor and Bruney a bit. Let Bruney pitch in more pressure situations, he's money. He could even take Farnsworth's job if he keeps it up and Farnsworth keeps sucking ass. And hey, who knows about Clemens. Wild card right now. The bats have been fine. A-Rod obviously is having one of the best seasons ever to this point but people overlook how good Posada has been. Abreu, Jeter (though not for power), Cano and Phelps are all hitting, Damon is coming around and Giambi is coming back huge. Matsui should start raking soon too. April might be a wash but I think we're going to heat up soon. |

Luis Vizcaino has pitched more innings than every starter except Andy Pettitte and Kei Igawa.

I would say that Tim Lincecum and Homer Bailey are the 2 best pitching prospects over Phillip Hughes, but he's probably in the top 5.

Game rained out today, probably for the better actually. The bullpen gets a much needed rest and I think the rotation lines up better.
Apparently Hughes stays on for tomorrow and Pettitte goes Friday against the Sox. Saturday is either Karstens or Igawa and Sunday is Wang. Who do the Sox have in line for the weekend series? |

He'll give up 37 runs but our bullpen will give up at least 38.

Yanks down 6-0. Hughes does 4 and a 1/3 throwing 91 pitches.
I think we're shootin' for 6 straight tonight. |

Stima, do you really think Willy MO and Manny for that matter are quality outfielders? They are very spotty. Is it so hard to believe that people outside of MLB can run down or catch fly balls better than major leaguers? Do you think Manny and Mo are on the team because of their defense? Nah man, I can play outfield better than they can. I can't hold a candle to them in terms of offense, which of course is why they are on the roster. Manny is imo, one of the best hitters ever to play, MO is there to hit HRs. Defensively, they can be very close to being labeled as terrible. (Manny has gotten better mind you)

Hmmmm. Interesting game. Pettite and Matsuzaka are having their innings from hell right now.
My god, is Posada asleep behind home plate. He's missing pitches left and right. I don't know about most of you, but I'm hearing Kay bring up this home plate ump. and how we got him on watch. Thoughts? Speaking of Pettite, there he goes. Bullpen is gonna work overtime yet again. Come on Dr. Proctor, one and out. Last edited by ClockShot; 04-27-2007 at 09:00 PM. |
