nice robbie
A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort. Herm Albright (1876 - 1944)
Damn
That stolen base by Jeter in the 1st was just the 13th of the season for the Yanks – tied for fewest in the AL with the ChiSox.
Hard to believe, but that was Jeter’s first SB attempt since Opening Day.
Good
we need a break

Gammons:
Cashman and the Yankees decided not to get Johan because the red sox won with young players.
I like how they made Hank out to be a real moron
with the music and the images floating around the screen. All they needed was have him wearing a dunce cap or clown makeup and they would’ve had him pegged perfectly.
In unrelated news...
The director of the new Get Smart movie could not have found a better actor than Steve Carell to play the Maxwell Smart role.
Kudos to him.
Just curious
if they’re gonna play Gonzalez at 3B, why the hell is Ensberg on the team?
Gonzalez has a good glove, but he’s clueless at third. He’s botched two popups and should have made the play on the grounder during Wang’s bad inning.
I like AGon as a back up to Cano and Jeter. I don’t understand why he’s at third.

I think Ensberg or Duncan is getting the boot on Tuesday
Probably Duncan again since he still has options left. I was a fan of the Ensberg signing, but he clearly hasn’t worked out very well.
I think
Britton will go down. They have too many pitchers.
I could Ensberg or Duncan going when the WB comes back. He was starting to hit before he hurt himself.

Good point
Britton is basically the driver of the Scranton shuttle bus crew. You’re right that he may get the boot instead.
Im not the biggest reggie guy
but can we relax with the “Reggie Jackson-type homerun by Ryan Church” stuff, guys?
Abreu = horrid
I’ve said this before but Matsui is a better outfielder than him, which isn’t saying much.
Matsui would have charged that ball and quickly thrown a strike home. Abreu’s arm is stronger but it’s NEVER accurate. Then there’s the whole wall thing.
