If You Were Manager...
2007-06-03 21:33:00
Last week I submitted a question to Yahoo Answers to see what you would do if you were to be the Yankees manager. After a few days of accepting answers, we have reached a winner. If I were put "in charge" and Torre were already gone (with no hope of being re-hired) I presume I would be replacing GM Brian Cashman. I would ...

"I Got It!"
2007-05-31 06:08:00
The Yankees finally end their losing skid with a nice 10-5 victory over the Blue Jays featuring a milestone and some controversy. Johnny Damon, two hits away from 2,000, hit a solo home run in the first, and a base hit in the second, bringing him to the milestone in front of a silent crowd. The Yankees scored five runs in the first and saw Toronto come back to bring it to a one run, 6-5 score ...

Wake Up!
2007-05-30 06:36:00
Dead last in the division, worse than the Devil Rays, straring at a huge uphill climb. The Yankees can no longer blame injury, they can't blam officiating, they can only blame themselves. I'll tell you the secret of winning championships. Reggie Jackson never complained, Thurmon Munson never complained, Billy Martin never complained; instead they had grit. They wanted to win, so in a magical ...

Sad sad sad

The Yankees started the season in first place, fell to last, climbed back to second, and are staring into the basement again. Pitching hasn't worked, hitting hasn't worked, fielding hasn't worked. It is very clear that the Yankees are either setting themselves up for a 1978 repeat, or the most humiliating failure since the 2004 playoffs. There was a 60/40 chance the Yankees were going to win the ...

What the Yankees Need
2007-05-23 23:39:00
I could have talked about the Subway Series, I could talk about the Red Sox series, I could even talk about the recent drama with Jason Giambi and his steroid admittance, but there is one story even more pressing that needs to be discussed. The Yankees are having a poor season, we all know that and Red Sox fans are rejoicing. I have went through every scenarios already trying to figure out how ...

The Shame
2007-05-22 00:28:00
I lost a bet. I lost a bet against a Mets fan. Now I have to disgrace my blog. The conditions of the bet were that if the Mets won the series against the Yankees, I would have to mention that the Mets are great, and vice versa. So here goes. The Mets are a great baseball teams and have shown that they are in fact better than the Yankees. The Mets are so good that they are New Yorks team. The ...

The Baltimore News-Post Sports Wednesday Evening, July 5, 1939 'Iron Man' Is Overcome By Emotion by Sid Feder NEW YORK, July 5-(A. P.) The husky figure climbed slowly up the old wooden stairs back of the Yankees' dugout, shoulders bent, right leg limping and throat torn by sobs. This was Lou Gehrig leaving the most dramatic moment of his life. Back of him, 61,808 fans piled on Yankee ...

The Perfect Line-Up
2007-05-15 03:37:00
Many managers have different ways of setting up their line ups before a game. Most of them follow the hitter-hitter-RBI-power method for the first four slots, but there is an even better way. Joe Torre, read carefully... The Lead-off Hitter: Derek Jeter The lead-off hitter should not be the batter with the highest batting average, but instead the batter with the highest on-base percentage. ...

Interview: Josh Drabek

Sorry this came so late, Josh had replied to my questionnaire earlier this week, but I was involed with moving to a new apartment and have been away for a few days. BronxBlogger: Before the game, what was running through your head? Josh Drabek: The usual pregame stuff. Trying to study their hitters warming up, getting my pitches ready in the pen, trying to psych myself up and get pumped for ...

Roger Maris on Steroids?
2007-05-12 05:35:00
I recently went out and purchased the new McFarlane Cooperstown Collection Roger Maris figurine and I have to say, it is very anatomically incorrect: Let's analyze a real life photo of Maris: As you can tell, Maris' arms are no larger than the average person's arms. No bulging biceps, no ripping veins, nothing out of the ordinary. Now let's analyze the McFarlane figurine: In nearly the same ...

An architect has sued the estate of late New York Yankees pitcher Cory Lidle, claiming his home was destroyed and he was emotionally injured when the ballplayer's small airplane crashed into his apartment building. Stephane Sparta says in court papers that after Lidle's Cirrus SR-20 aircraft crashed on Oct. 11, 2006, into the Upper East Side Manhattan building where he lives, he was forced to ...
