Pre-season thoughts
by JoeIs Joba experimenting, or does he just stink? I guess we’ll know after his next start. Rivera says he belongs in the bullpen as the 8th inning guy. Maybe Joe should listen to Mo.
Len and I heard an interview with Curtis Granderson the other day. The guy is smooth and impressive. Assuming he does as well on the field, he will be a great addition to this team. He speaks like a Yankee.
Maybe I don’t know all the facts about Canadian Dr. Galea, but given his link to Balco, why would any ball player go to him for anything? What does this truly tell you about A-Rod? Galea says he only gave A-Rod anti-inflammatory drugs. Why would he need to go to Canada for anti-inflammatory drugs? Oh, I forgot that the Canadian healthcare system is vastly superior to that in the US. What a joke. He is still cheating. There can be no doubt.
I’m going to miss David Cone in the broadcast booth. A very smart guy on and off the field. Rumor has it that he may be replaced by Tino, unless O’Neill does more games. O’Neill would be more entertaining. It would be refreshing, though, if they put in a guy who has the stones to speak his mind.
How happy are the Steinbrenners with Mark Newman after his DUI arrest? It didn’t take them long to kick Swindel to the curb and he was a son-in-law.
Damon said that, on advice from A-Rod, he called Hal in January and told hem he wanted to come back to the Yankees. The call was 6 weeks too late.

Joba is starting to remind me of what an economist said about Brazil, “it has the potential to be one of the world’s greatest powers and it always will.” (Understood, of course, that it never will attain greatness)
O’Neill is far superior to the little I’ve heard from Tino on-air. Michael Kay and O’Neill are a lot of fun together, but Paul doesn’t like to travel.
Apparently, Dr. Philippon instructed A-Rod to see Galea for his “blood-spinning” technique to accelerate healing.
