The pat on the back I gave Girardi the other day is gone.  He flip flopped AJ and Pettitte.  I know he was trying to “pump up” AJ, but in terms of his Yankee career we need to see it first before we discount Pettitte’s big game ability and the ability to stop skids.  Everything with AJ is belt high – gee whiz can the guy keep the ball down, a little?  Come on get on top of the ball! 

This is coming dangerously close to being a situation where Wang is ruined.  Girardi and Eiland take full responsibility for that. 

They better tear through the rest of the league because the way it looks now, they better not end in a tie with Boston for anything. 

A-Rod has been relatively quiet, although his presence has helped Tex.  We need a little something tonight.  And CC, time to earn your paycheck.  Losing 7 in a row to Boston, in Fenway Park, come on CC, let’s see some intestinal fortitude.
