Missed last night's game, but the highlights showed Doc as being off with his stuff last night... or was it a case of the WSOX having good at bats?

The Jays in general weren't real sharp. 3 errors, one by Halladay. Glad to see them not quick and almost make a comeback in the 9th off Jenks.

Darn Jays are up by 3 in game #2 of their double-header Vs the RSOX, but Litch just loaded the bases with no one out.

Astros and Cubs are gonna play their doubleheader today and final game tomorrow at Milwaukee due to Hurricane Ike. Even though Astros management claims zero to minimal damage occured at Minute Maid.

Derek Jeter tied Lou Gehrig for the most hits in Yankee Stadium with a HR though. Has 7 games after this one to get one more hit. Good stuff.

This NL East race is gonna fucking kill me. Painfully obvious it's gonna go right down to the last game of the year again. And...of course, the Mets already lost the coin toss for a possible tiebreaker

Bold words, Mr. Posada.
Posada: More injury risk for Joba in rotation than in bullpen Associated Press NEW YORK -- Jorge Posada wants Joba Chamberlain kept in the bullpen and predicts more injuries for the young pitcher if the New York Yankees put him in their starting rotation. "I think if you start him and he pitches 200 innings in one year, you're going to lose him. He's going to get hurt. I don't see him as a starter," Posada said Monday during a session of "CenterStage," scheduled to air on the team's YES Network starting Sept. 28. Chamberlain, the hard-throwing righty who turns 23 next week, began the season in the Yankees bullpen and then moved to the rotation in June. The plan was to limit his innings early and then make him a full-time starter. He was sidelined from Aug. 4 to Sept. 2 because of rotator cuff tendinitis and went back to the bullpen when he returned. "A little tendinitis, it just tells you a lot," Posada said after the TV interview. Chamberlain was 3-1 with a 2.76 ERA in 12 starts, striking out 74 in 65 1/3 innings. He's 1-2 with a 2.29 ERA in 24 relief appearances, fanning 34 in 28 2/3 innings. "I see him as a reliever. I think his body is made up for a reliever," Posada said. The 37-year-old catcher had season-ending shoulder surgery June 30 and expects to return behind the plate for New York next season, anticipating he can catch 120 to 130 games. With the Yankees almost certain to miss the playoffs for the first time since 1993, he says the team must go into the free-agent market to repair its starting rotation. CC Sabathia, Ben Sheets and A.J. Burnett are their chief targets. "We're pretty much going to be in it, but you don't know if those guys are going to want to come here," Posada said. "I hope they do." On another topic, Posada voiced anger toward Pedro Martinez for the 2003 brawl between the Yankees and the Red Sox during the AL Championship Series. "I thought he was going to hit me in the head with a bat, after we had the fight and he pushed Don Zimmer. It was ridiculous. I mean, he throws at Karim Garcia because he's losing the game. I mean, there's no class," Posada said. It might have been an uncomfortable situation had Posada signed with the New York Mets after the 2007 season. He would have had to catch Martinez. "You try to forget about the past and look forward," Posada said. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Half of me wants to agree wtih him. But the other half doesn't. |

Yeah. Totally did not see Yost getting the ax this late in the season. I mean, Randolph was one thing. But what happened to wait and see?

Pretty sure Posada isn't a doctor so I'm not really sure what he sees that makes him think Joba can't handle being a starter. He's been a starter in college and the minors so its not like its something new for him.
I really think it would be a waste leaving Joba in the pen. One thing that needs to happen is to just give him a set role going into next season and not switch him back and forth from the bullpen to the rotation. Thats probably what caused the injury more than anything else. |

Yanks have finally taken notice and thrown Robinson Cano in the daily doghouse.
Got benched yesterday for not running down a groundball. Girardi is gonna take this day by day and how long it goes. |

Yeah Giradi going to be sending messages now that they're far out of the race? Wow. Tough call. Have you seen how many times BJ Upton's been benched this year for not running out ground balls? 2 or 3 times and he's a Tampa Ray in case you didn't know it. Giradi, while only a symptom, not the cause of the yank collapse this year is still not suited to be their bench boss.

I don't really think its a coincedence that Cano has been hitting better and busting his ass after the benching a couple days ago. Doing it in June would have been smarter. Cano is the kind of player that seems to need someone pushing him and thats what Larry Bowa did the past couple years. I think thats whats been missing with him this year. But really, having one reliable starter and an inconsistent lineup is what killed the Yankees this year. |

Wow, Jeter just hit on the hand by a pitch and taken out of the game.
Can't imagine whats he's thinking if he can't play the last game at Yankee Stadium tomorrow. He was obviously pissed about getting hit, which he isn't too often. |

The Jays pitching will be awful next year. I'm gutted. Burnett will opt out, we won't be able to resign him, Marcum is out all next year, McGowan will start on the DL. We went from a great staff to shallow as a kiddie pool. I guess I can pray for some surprise signings and/or some star to emerge out of the farm system.

lol yeah, Jose Molina of all people gets the last HR.
Admittedly, as a Mets fan it makes me a bit sick knowing that if the situations were reversed and the Mets were closing, ESPN would have immediately switched to Sportscenter after the game rather than showing the ceremony. ![]() But, can't deny the place has a fuckload of history. Glad I got to go to that Sunday night Yanks/Sox game this year before it went down. |
