Yanks Maul Sox
It just doesn't seem right to have a Yankees/Sox series late in September with nothing at stake, but that's exactly what we're watching this weekend.
Tonight, in game one of the series, the Yanks waited out the bad weather, then beat the tar out of the Beantowners, 19-8. Aceves had a rough first inning, giving up 3 runs, but it didn't matter. Gardner had 6 RBI, Ransom hit two bombs. Jeter left the game and probably won't play again this season. Not much else to talk about. Glad to see Girardi send the A lineup out there, we'll see if he follows suit tomorrow. Less than 36 hours until the Moose goes for #20. Player of The Game: Brett Gardner Team Record: 88-72 Damon: Zilch Here's a question for you to ponder, if the season ended tonight the ChiSox and the Mets would be out of the playoffs. If they both miss the playoffs, which team is the bigger choke artist?

Could somebody send Chris Britton back to the minors, please?
Which team is the bigger choke artist?
New York Yankees.
They lost when they were supposed to win.
They won when they were supposed to lose.
They stuck with a bunch of pitchers who collectively can't get a win for too long
They benched a player who needed to be disciplined when it was too late.
All valid points, but their choking was long term, I'm talking about a team that had a playoff spot wrapped up and blew it.
I'd have to say the Mutts are the biggest chokers. So many ANALysts crowned them the NL East champs before the season began. And despite having the best pitcher in baseball, they still couldn't get it done. I'm rooting for the Brewers at this point to take the Wild Card.
