Yes I forgot to mention Mo. He does have that steely eyed stare that he will give. I have also seen him get a smile where he clinches his teeth as well (very rarely).
A comment about MVP: If the Yankees make the post-season, the Most Valuable Player award will go to [...]

You forgot about Mo. He just stares in at the umpire for a couple of seconds, the same way he stares down a batter, then returns to the mound. Randy barks at the umps (he is a child). You definitely have moose down. It’s that extra second or two in the [...]

Bellhorn played 14 games at third for the Sox in 2004. One of which was the September 18th, 2004 game that my father and I attended. We crushed the Sox 14-4 in that game with bombs from Bernie, A-Rod (off Mendoza I think), and Posada. Matsui got his 100th RBI in that [...]

Now that I think about it, another example for Cone was the slightly turned head (usually to the right) and he would actually say: “Oh come on, Tim.” (for Tim Tschida) or insert Umpire’s first name. Cone was one of the few pitchers I know who would directly speak to the umpires, “Where [...]

In order for players to be eligible for the postseason, they must be on a team’s 40 man roster by the close of transactions on August 31. Playoff rosters (25 man active) have to be submitted prior to each round of the playoffs. I would think the Division Series roster would have to [...]

I don’t understand this move either. When does Torre have to set his roster for the playoffs? Can Belhorn play all infield positions? I don’t think Womack can play short or third. Is it possible Belhorn is protection for Jeter and A-Rod? Other than that I have no explanation. [...]

Bellhorn can play third base. With Sanchez hurt, Escalona is their only backup option at that position. Womack can’t play third.
Third base is probably why they picked him up.
And unlike Escalona, Bellhorn has playoff experience.
With Lawton, he needs to be looked at as an upgrade to Womack, not Bernie. [...]

I saw that early this morning. Bellhorn is marginal player. Anyone who paid attention last year knows that Bellhorn’s success in the ALCS was due more to the poor Yankees pitching than anything Bellhorn did. He’s not good defensively, he’s not fast, and he strikes out way too much. I mean [...]

First it was signing Matt Lawton. Ok he has gotten a couple of hits but if Ruben is coming back isn’t he a better option in the outfield/DH? Now MLB.com is reporting that Mark Bellhorn was picked up off waivers. I realize that Rey Sanchez is hurt and Womack has been horrendous, [...]

Thanks to Giambi the Yankees remain hot. With no help from Mussina the Yankees managed to pull one out with clutch hitting from Giambi and two insurance runs from A-Rod and Lawton with home runs in the eight inning.
Aaron Small came up Big again winning his fifth game with [...]
