John, I couldn’t agree with you more.  I believe the Yankees will make some moves.  They won’t give up on the season.  I’m not sure the season is salvageable, but Cashman will feel forced to do something.  I hope he doesn’t mortgage the future.  And he better not sign anyone over the age of 35 [...]

Russ: If you are suggesting that Steinbrenner is going to concede the season after committing $18.9 Million to Clemens you are losing your mind.
The season may well be lost, but Yankee management isn’t going to sit idle while the drama unfolds. They WILL make moves.
That’s not to say that making pointless moves is the right thing [...]

fix this team.  I am convinced.  All is lost.  This team cannot possibly contend for a playoff spot.  Torre has lost his freaking mind.  He is out where the buses do not run.  I don’t know what the explanation is for last night’s 9th innning.  Usually I would say, do not bring Mo in a [...]

At this point, Cashman needs to make some moves to attempt to save the season. Then if that doesn’t pan out, he (or someone else) will need to prep for next year.
I would possibly try to work something out with the Mets:
1) Farnesworth and Abreu for Green and Schoeneweis? (Green can play first or right field and [...]

Record 7 40-year-olds to start Wednesday June 26, 2007
NEW YORK (AP) — It really will be old-timers day in the major leagues on Wednesday, when a record seven pitchers in their 40s are scheduled to start.
The New York Yankees’ Roger Clemens (44), Philadelphia’s Jamie Moyer (44), Detroit’s Kenny Rogers (42), San Diego’s Greg Maddux (41), [...]

All of the points made are correct. Management has failed miserably, on and off the field. One of the biggest mistakes was signing Mussina. He has never lived up to his resume and the money he is getting. I thought Clemens wouldn’t make a difference and in fact he has in [...]

That makes me a traitor to the Roundtable but let me explain. I’m talking about 1957, Hank Aaron’s only ring, with his Braves (mostly due to Lew Burdette) beating the Yanks. It gives me some satisfaction that Hank has a ring but Barry Bonds will live and die without that honor. Of course, I’m happy [...]

A-Rod did get a +4 in one game.  That and he had a near miss for another +1 in the game.  He is at +12 right now and he has had countless near misses (an inning early, a run too much or too little, etc.).  He has a .571 clutch average!
On the other hand, Jeter’s [...]

I must admit that I am a little behind in keeping up with the clutch count.  Did A-Rod get a +4 for Saturday?  He’s unbelievable this year.  We know that A-Rod reads the Roundtable for moral support, but I hope Scott Borus does not.  If he reads the Clutch Count page, the price for A-Rod [...]

Dimitri Young is another guy who is just what the doctor ordered for this team until a permanent solution can be found.  A better hitter than fielder – he is a more accomplished hitter than anyone the Yanks have tried at this position (except for Giambi and Posada).
This season boils down to a few culprits [...]
