It’s not so much a pass as it’s for the first time in a long time, I was “on the same page” with him.Â
You make a good point about Sabathia’s wildness and the wisdom of giving a green light in that situation. It’s debatable. Posada missed it but the pitch turned out to be good. Then [...]

I am surprised on the pass you have given to Torre last night. With how erratic CC was pitching you had to give Posada the take sign. The game would haves been tied with ball our. And since my lineup would not have had Matsui batting behind Posada  (or in the game at all) the [...]

John B.,….. I love that speech. I read your post and was ready to run through my office door. I hope you’re right that last night serves as a wake up call.Â

This is why he is on the team. He’s done it all year. He will do it tonight. I’m not killing Torre that much either. The only problem I had with Torre was starting Matsui over Duncan, and that could be argued. I loved Posada going after the 3-0 pitch. He had a great swing, [...]

“About last night. GOOD. This is a f’n wake-up call for you dopes. They smacked the sh!t out of us.
You are supposed to be the most feared line-up [...]

I cannot express how deeply disappointed I am in Wang. He was not “on top of the ball” and Guidry said in the dugout that he was not finishing off his pitches. I don’t know where his changeup was, but I don’t think that would have helped if he wasn’t finishing his pitches. I am [...]

I will be glad when Joe exists the scene this year even if the Yankees win the WS.
Â
I do not criticize him for not bunting Jeter, who hits to right field and has a tremendous average at the Jake. But I have the following problems with the game Joe managed last night:
1) Wang was too [...]
