Every Yankee Flaw Being Exposed

The Yankees have a powerful roster.
The Yankees can score a ton of runs.

They have multiple H.O.F. future inductees on their roster. Beyond that, they have a lot of players that will go down in history as really good players if not Hall members. They are close to the best record in baseball and have held that position at various points throughout the year.  The worst thing that can happen to them is that they will have to play a play-off game to get into the playoffs–if they lose every game for the rest of the season. How likely is that to happen? It would seem nigh onto impossible.

Yanks win 8 out of 10

The Yankees have won 8 out of 10.

Of course, they’ve also lost two straight. I know that some of you think I’m some sort of Donald downer but you have to admit that if the playoffs started tomorrow you would be as nervous as a Freshman on his first date.

I admit I was afraid to post any blog posts during the streak because I didn’t want to jinx it. I admit that I was and am hopeful. I also admit that in the middle of that hopefulness is cold hard fear and trepidation.

9 Random Thoughts While Watching the Yankees are up 77-35

  1. I think the whole Congress/Media/Roger Clemens steroids thing is disgusting. The media is full of self-loathing hypocrites that made a bunch of money off of the steroid era and are certainly partially responsible to blame for it but now have crawled up onto their self righteous horses made of wax paper. Roger is probably guilty but is this really something congress needs to worry about? How many people died in the Middle East today? How many people are living in the streets of America? How many people don’t have a job tonight and are in danger of losing their home? Too many and what is congress worried about? Flipping Roger Clemens and making an example of him. I hope everyone on that committee loses their next re-election bids. What happens when they lie? Nothing. Remember Ole Bill Clinton? This whole thing is just stupid.

Well, You Can’t Say You Weren’t Warned

The Yankees lost again tonight. And the offense looked worse than anemic, it looked like the Republican PR machine during the last Presidential election.

Of course, the defense looked more porous than my wife’s humus rocks. Giving up runs like they were doing a charity dance. Now, it would be easy to say that I warned you. It would be easy to say that I said, A-Rod’s home run chase would become a distraction because, well I did say that.

You can’t say you weren’t warned.

Ozzie Guillen on Joe Torre and Cashman (Quote of the Year)

I absolutely love Ozzie Guillen. I actually want to write a post about why I think he’s good for baseball. If you haven’t heard there is a little fiasco currently going on in the White Sox organization because of something his something his son posted on his personal twitter page. This led to Oney resigning from his position with the White Sox.

Of course, the media is in a lathered frenzy. Is a divorce between Ozzie and White Sox management imminent? Personally, I doubt it. One of the things I appreciate about Ozzie is his ability to differentiate between personal and business. All of this brings me to Ozzie’s quote on Torre and Cash. He said this:
