While im not at all for the Berkman/Kearns deals..It hasn't cost us all that much and they are only 3 month rentals.

Berkman has decent OBP and has had 15 IBB this year. He'l get a chance to swing in our lineup. Kearns, i don't understand this at all but i guess i don't have to. Maybe he is just a piece to mix and match with or a guaranteed K in the middle of the lineup so other teams actually have a...

]]> 0 The Boss Lupica is a small minded little man who has never had an original idea. He is old school in the way that controversy sells papers. The positve thing here is that with that advent of the internet. No one has to pay to read his small witted remarks. His kind is outdated and the timing of his column is horrid. He reeks with jealousy over the Yankee fans and the fact that Big Stein came out on top.

Anyone that has run or known someone that has run a sucessful business knows that i...

]]> 0 Winning and losing ...yankees While all is not well in the Yankee Universe, one should be filled with a certain amount of pride being able to complain about a team playing 600 baseball. If we lived in Milwaukee we would be dancing in the streets and preparing for our postseason cookout.

On 161st and River we are looking for heads to roll and reasons why our team wont be going 162-0 this year. Ok il give alittle credit 154-8. With all 8 losses coming on the west coast. While this team has some notable probl...

]]> 0 The Heartbeat of the Game and over Joe....ing it I may be the first one to say this in an open forum, but i am tired of of Girardi. Hes a great guy and all but his profile just doesnt fit as a manager of a Big league club. He's too much the face of the Yankees when it should be about the players and the game. His persona is more suited for that of a GM and his baseball analytical skills are after the fact like those of a color analyst. His face is all over NY more than any other player hawking everything in sight.

]]> 0 Response to life without Jeter In regards to jeter and his eventual retirement. it goes to show what a true star he really is and that he is in fact taken for granted by this generation of fans. You can look and fantasize all you want but you simply wont find another. He is a true once in a lifetime champion. If you can remember those who came before him, good players and nice guys but all fuzzy faces with less than memorable names. Smalley, Espinoza, Andre Robertson. Would we even remember Bucky Dent if not for the hom...

]]> 0 YANKEE YEARS BY JOE TORRE Was wondering if any one has read this book. Its not a great read but there are interesting aspects of it. One of the more interesting parts that concerns the current yankees is the part on Damon. The book goes to say that while Torre liked damon and admired his play he was not fully comitted to playing and often comtemplates retirement. Says he is moody, fragile and reports out of shape. I would certainly assume this is the reason the Yanks didnt want to commit any great amt of money...

Now to you and i 2yrs and 13 million may sound like a dream payday it actually reflects a downward trend in free agent spending..Of course there will always be big money for guys like arod jeter and the like but there is a noticable trend developing for second tier athletes ie johnny damon, abreau, tori hunter and the like

]]> 0 ARE WE BETTER WORSE OR THE SAME???? With the siging of vasquez im again left scratching my head.....its not that im bashing cash.. i just dont understand the logic.. I think Javier is a good addition but at that price considering what we already traded away? Now if all things had stayed the same from last year and Cash made this deal then i would think it was awesome. At least we have a no4 starter, vasquez eats innings and is a better back of the rotation guy then a front liner which he was on his first go around here....

]]> 0 Whats Going On? Hot Stove Trades ETC... I dont understand the Yankee mindset this year.. Matsui goes to Angels? Cliff Lee to Seattle in exchange for Halladay essentially. Boston has two centerfielders, but make no serious play on Jason Bay... don't get it.
