The Doctor Is Out

Click for full story. A trade that’s been rumored for weeks has finally come to pass, and I’m sad to say, Scott Proctor is no longer a Yankee. The Bombers have pulled the trigger on a deal to send the Doctor to LA for...

Rooting for the Yankees this year in the AL given me a brighter perspective as a fan. So at the trade deadline, I'm optimistic for both the Phils and the Yankees. The Yankees didn't overpay...

Yankee Stadium Memories

Click for full story. Steve from Was Watching sent me an e-mail earlier this week asking for Yankee Stadium stories for a project he’s working on. You can see his post on the project here. I’ve been thinking about it ever since, and...

Bitterness will get you nowhere, and the sports gods will give me a pass on that one because I wound up marrying her. If it was just a girlfriend you may have a case....

Do the Yanks Need Gagne?

Click for full story. The big question regarding the Yanks and the trade deadline is whether they’ll be able to get Eric Gagne without giving up too much. The answer is that the only way he winds up in NY is if the Yanks...
Latest comment: from Brian
Prez, You summed it up right there. I think right now he could dominate out of the pen. The learning curve is much shorter as far as pitching strategy and patterns are concerned in the...

Bombers Pick Up a Game on the Field

Click for full story. The Yanks managed to salvage a split in this four-game series in Baltimore (I’m counting the completed rain out game as part of this series). Things could’ve gone worse, so I’m not complaining. The win today, coupled with Tampa’s win...
Latest comment: from Brian
I don't think the Yanks will consider Chamberlain for anyone short of Johan Santana at this point. Or at least I hope that's the case. I don't think Gagne's coming to NY at this point,...

Thanks A Lot, ESPN

Click for full story. If you’re looking for up-to-the-minute baseball trade rumors, apparently your Insider subscription to ESPN won’t cut it anymore. Less than 72 hours until the trading deadline, and ESPN.com hasn’t updated its MLB Rumor Mill column in over 36 hours. I’m...
Latest comment: from JJ
I agree that the player on the Phils that could be made expendable is Rowand. I just don't think Gillick is shrewd enough to get good value for him and think he'll be rooked in...

Joe Torre Punches Me In the Junk

Click for full story. Nothing but a Letter to the Skipper after this showing: Player of The Game: Melky Cabrera, 2 for 2, 1 RBI, 1 HBP, 1 BB, 1 SB. Melky was the only Yankee who looked like he wanted to play for...

Silver Linings

Click for full story. On a day when Mo didn’t have it, Pettitte didn’t have it, the offense didn’t have it and the opposing pitcher was dominant you have to feel pretty good to come away with a win. The only problem is that...

Yanks Make Kei Move

Click for full story. This is only a rumor at this point, but River Ave. Blues is saying that Kei Igawa is leaving the Yanks in favor of Chris Basak, presumably for the minor leagues. Newsday’s Yankee blog has a blurb about Kei...
Latest comment: from Brian
Wow. If that happens I'll be the happiest man on the face of the earth. I have to imagine the Yanks would have to pick up about 90% of his contract if he was included...

Iguodala Gets An Invite, Payday to Follow?

Click for full story. The Philadelphia Inquiror and Phillynews.com both broke their vow of silence on Sixers news today with dueling pieces on Andre Iguodala. Andre was invited to scrimmage with the U.S. national team in what is viewed as a move toward getting...
Latest comment: from Brian
Not too many of those teams (if any) are going to have max dollars to offer, but let's hope it doesn't come to that. This is the time to get it done. The window doesn't...

The Trade Deadline Must Be Approaching

Click for full story. Trade rumors are swirling, and as usual, the Yankees seem to be involved in most of them. Here’s a quick run-down: Damon to the Braves Farnsworth to the Tigers Possibly to the Yankees: Teixeira Wigginton Gagne First things first,...
Latest comment: from Brian
Damn him. Damn him to hell. I hope the Angels get Teixeira and you Braves fans are stuck watching Julio Franco play first for the rest of the year....

Opportunity Wasted

Click for full story. This series should’ve been a sweep. There, now I’ve gotten that out of my system, hopefully the Yanks got this clunker out of their system as well. 3 out of 4 ain’t bad, that’s the motto of the second...
Latest comment: from JJ
Agree with your note to Cashman about Hughes. They appear to be overly cautious with him at this point and they need him. Throwing 90 pitches with the Yankees is no different from throwing 90...

Why is Curt Schilling Beyond Reproach?

Click for full story. Curt Schilling, blogger, painted-sock hero, over-the-hill and oft-injured pitcher has opened his gigantic trap, yet again (ahem, see picture at right). Here’s the link to the latest Schilling sputum. His thesis: because Barry Bonds and Mark McGwire aren’t suing people...
