with Saunders, Santana and Weaver on the hill, I'm sure that's likely to happen

it appears some hat tipping will be in the forecast…

Was there

game was going great til the 8th. BA’s homer was one row down and one row to the right of me. the guy gave it to the son of two hipsters who was unfortunately wearing a blue suit with a tie and fedora. the poor bastard couldn’t have been more than 10.

The corporate and button-downed Yankees have seemingly morphed into the 2004 Red Sox in recent weeks, behaving like a group of “Idiots.” The Yankees are a considerably looser group than past versions of the team, and many in the clubhouse attribute the shift in atmosphere to outfielder Nick Swisher, who was acquired from the White Sox in an off-season trade. It’s Swisher who took the step of cranking up the clubhouse stereo every day in spring training, and the Yankees are calling their good times “Swisherlicious.”

The Yankees have brought back the Kangaroo Court for the first time in 15 years as players and coaches can be fined for a variety of goofy offenses. The Yankees have also picked up on the time-honored tradition of throwing shaving-cream pies in the faces of players while they’re giving post-game television interviews.

Outfielder Johnny Damon took a swipe at former manager Joe Torre by saying that current skipper Joe Girardi has instituted a “family atmosphere” that has made things more relaxed. “The rules are more family-oriented now,” Damon said. “You couldn’t bring the kids to the ballpark [under Torre]. It just wasn’t a fun, conducive place to come to. I love Girardi being all about family.”

Just wait until Swish hits .150 in June

Now that would be “swishericious”

Bobby puts it on himself
‘‘It was just one of those days.’’

‘‘It’s not the results we wanted, but we won the series and it was a good homestand,’’ Jenks said. ‘‘That’s what we want.

‘‘If I save [10 out of 11], that’s 40 out of 44 and that’s a pretty good year.’’

someone else can do the math, but 4-2 homestands

The rest of the way will be fine with me. .666 here, .500 on the road (?) will give us a winning record eventually.
Shit happens.

by Chiburb on May 24, 2009 6:36 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

I was thinking about that the other day

if you take 2/3 at home and play .500 ball on the road, you end up with 94 or 95 wins (depends on how you want to round). I just never did the math before and was surprised that you end up with that good of a record.

If you’re talking about the Sox playing .666 at home and .500 on the road from here on out, it doesn’t equate to 94 wins, but I’d take it none the less.

May Madness?
by Bryan Smith

The NCAA took the first step in the creation of their 64-team college baseball tournament this evening, naming the 16 schools that will host regionals next weekend. The list of teams is a slight indictment on the NCAA’s stated desire to increase interest in the sport in new regions, as Louisville (who captured the Big East regular season and postseason championships) is the most unique site. The committee has given no indication, as of yet, on which eight schools will be given the revered national seeds. Here are the 16 regional hosts (the "one seeds"), ranked by their RPI entering Sunday: …

Bradley claims the umpires are out to get him
“Unfortunately, I just think it’s a lot of ‘Oh, you did this to my colleague,’ or ’We’re going to get him any time we can,” Bradley said, according to the Chicago Tribune. "As soon as he gets two strikes, we’re going to call whatever and see what he does. Let’s try to ruin Milton Bradley.’

Jenks Overexposed

We need an alternate closer. I’m not impressed with Linebrink, but we need to take some of the pressure off of Jenks. Any ideas?

Even the Save he has earned this year

he hasn’t been the shut down closer like he can be. I think you missed my point – I would like him to be that shut down guy come August – September – October. The point being that it would be nice to have an alternate so when money time comes he’s not over exposed and is a guaranteed shut down when it really counts.
