Also, we have an off day on Monday each of the next 3 weeks, that's huge for the pitching staff.

Some choice andyfox quotes from the last 2 months:

Fellow Yankee fans: This is not a slump. It's a quarter of the season and we suck.

[/ QUOTE ]

wrong

[ QUOTE ]
I've seen no evidence that this team can compete with the better teams in the league. And no reason to expect that they will.

[/ QUOTE ]

did the series they won at fenway + this hot streak make you reconsider this?

[ QUOTE ]
A-Rod was responsible for a large proportion of their run creation when he was on fire. Now he's cooled off

[/ QUOTE ]

Yes, he cooled off for what, 15 games? that was completely unavoidable, just as unavoidable as him lighting it up again.

[ QUOTE ]
The Yankees are pathetic right now. That's the only word for it.

[/ QUOTE ]

Well, over the short stretch you were talking about, i guess you were right. But over the other short stretch I'm looking at, they are the best team in baseball!!!




Obviously I am being somewhat facetious and I agree with you about a lot of the weaknesses of this team, there are a bunch of huge ones (age, weak last starters, age, bullpen, and age), but your constant doom and gloom is just incorrect and really annoying. It is nice to run well and get to watch all the people who said the season was over and the team was terrible get to realize they are wrong.

truth. the 9 games from the 19th to the 28th are against 3 terrible teams at home, that will be gravy too.

kay was doing one of those monologues where he editorializes and plays talk show host, he was talking about how he thinks the yankees need to change the order of the rotations because clippard and clemens are next to each other and they the two pitchers who have trouble going deep in the game. he went on and on, and when he was done leiter just goes, "uh.... what?" and then murcer just piled on and laughed at him and kay got all flustered. its kind of hard to retell, just the timing of leiters comment and his tone were perfect. i think the support guys on the yes crew are great, leiter, murcer, oneil, singleton, and flaherty are always nice to listen to. kay is just bad.

qft - i didn't hear it but i feel like you retold it pretty well. kay is so unbelievably unprofessional with his silly rants and ramblings.

[g-bebe]

Woohoo! Abreu lit it up today, he's looking like he's getting back to what the Yankees thought they'd get out of him this year.

This is good. Very good. A nice old fashioned drubbing of the Pirates was a nice break

what inning was it? maybe i'll rewatch it. love mlb.tv archives.

Cano and Abreu are really starting to hit like they're suppose to and that's huge. Melky has gotten his batting average from .215 to .251 so maybe he'll keep hitting now that he's playing every day. After beating up on the terrible White Sox and Pirates let's hope they can keep it up against the D-backs and Mets this week.
