MORE LOSSES AND JOE IS GONE

Why was Doug M. batting in the seventh inning with the game on the line?  Joe had him pinch hit for Phelps.  You have to be kidding.  Forget about lefty vs righty, Phelps is a better hitter than DM.
Time for a change in the management of the Yankees on the field.   
 

Something New

Joe, instead of sacrificing a chicken (it would just get those PETA people up in arms anyway) why doesn’t Torre resort to the old Billy Martin trick and pick the lineup out of a hat.  With one exception – If Abreu comes up third, pick again!

Some Suggested Reading for Today’s off day.

Outfielders, A-Rod and Posada should look at this one.  

Cano, Giambi, and Abreu should try this out.  It seems to have worked for Jeter.

A-Rod cooled off which resulted in a complete shutdown of the offense.  Giambi, Abreu, and Cano, ice cold. As I mentioned last week, they needed to go 10-3 or 9-4 against Texas ans Seattle to get them over .500 before facing the White Sox and the Mets.  They were only able to muster 8-5 for [...]

Time to worry

Now, the pitching is good and the bats have gone cold.  And Boston keeps on rolling.  Time to sacrifice a chicken, drink Joe Bu’s rum… something.  Pettitte must think he is back in Houston with absolutley no run support.  Cano and Abreu look pathetic.  This team could be 11 games back by the end of [...]

I am ripping my hair out, one at a time!

What the heck was that?  You’ve got to be kidding me?  All this offensive talent – for what?  Oh, I like what Johnny Damon has to say about all this: “We’ve fallen behind, the next month is really big for us.”  What the….?  JIMINEY CRICKET, JOHNNY, THEY ARE ALL IMPORTANT!  THEY ARE ALL BIG!  HELLO….
