I didn't like what I saw from Robbie tonight. Sure he had four hits, but he only saw 14 pitches- 6 of those came in his 4th inning AB. Of those 14, he was behind in the count in the 2nd, 4th, and 9th. In the 6th, he swung (and got a hit) on the...

Our friends at RAB raises the question.  With the offensive woes now stretching 40 games into the season, it was just a matter of time before someone said the "B" word. In my opinion, he's not worth the hassle and enormous distraction,...

I've always thought of myself as a realist, though I'm inclined to push in favor of whichever argument seems to be neglected. In Yankee Land, that often means that I'm an optimist. But I can't quite muster it tonight. It's not that we just lost a...

Goose Gossage misses the good 'ole days: "But there's no one to pass the torch anymore, no one to teach the young kids how to act. The Mets did a lot of that [celebrating] last year, and look how it came back to haunt them." Gossage told the...

Last week, LateInningRelief put me in charge of finding a cheap veteran for the Yanks to pick up to eat some innings this season. Here's a couple potential trades I'd sign off on: Hideki Matsui plus $4 million for Randy Wolf. Why trade an...

We just saw some guy with low to medium velocity win his 350th game.  http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/recap?gid=280510125 We know Maddox is a first round hall of famer.  But we, and almost everyone else, fall into the trap of thinking...

Well, that didn't take long.  Today's game has been postponed by rain.  No makeup date has been announced as of yet. At least we now won't have to watch Kei Igawa pitch this week . UPDATE: Today's Scranton game has also been...

In the understatement of the season, I think it's safe to say that all the running during Spring Training hasn't helped keep the Yanks healthy through the first 38 games. Pete Abe reports that Wilson Betemit has become the fourteenth and latest...
