PREGAME NOTES:

Yanks have lost 5 of 6 after winning 8 straight.

Jered Weaver is a lifetime 2-0, 3.27 ERA, 1.45 WHIP in 2 starts against the Yanks.  He is 5-4, 4.52 ERA, 1.43 WHIP in 11 starts on the road this season.

Mike Mussina is a lifetime 15-9, 3.71 ERA, 1.21 WHIP in 31 starts against the Angels.  He is 8-6, 3.63 ERA, 1.27 WHIP in 15 starts at the Stadium this season.

Angels' hitters vs. Moose can be viewed here.  Yanks' hitters vs. Weaver can be viewed here.

CANO OUT:  Pete Abe reports that Robinson Cano is out with a sore hand that he's had for nearly a week.

WANG NOT EXPECTED BACK:  In case you haven't heard, Joe Girardi admitted yesterday that Chien-Ming Wang is expected to be out for the rest of the regular season although it is possible he could return in October.

So what you’re saying is, Wang is out for the year.

That's the way I see it

But I guess some people are hoping for the best.

I don't think it's the worst idea in the world

to start thinking about moving Cano. He’s probably their best trading chip not named Joba and the Yanks need to replace two more outfielders at the end of 2009.

I wouldn’t ship him away for just anybody, but I’d be curious to see what they could get for him.

IMO....

I don’t think he’s ever going to hit his ceiling. He just doesn’t seem like cares enough to be the great player he should be.

Too many mental lapses and stupid mistakes.

dead

This team is dead, again. We’ll be lucky not to get no-hit. They’ll be looking to deal their overpriced guys by the end of the month.

Mr. Wilson

I was about to make fun of him and then he put one out. I’m optimistic again!

I still don't like him

We need a better back up. I wonder how good the prospect was for Alberto. He could field at least/

Gonzalez became expendable because of Ramiro Pena

Pena played in the Future’s Game a couple of weeks ago and he’s playing SS in Trenton. He might be in Scranton next season.

He doesn’t hit much, but he’s got a very good glove and very good range.

Nothing wrong with making fun of Mr. Wilson

He’ll jack one every now and then but he’s usually good for a K every 3 ABs.

I think that's 19 GIDP for Jeter this season

Yikes. He’s unquestionably having the worst season of his career.

cabrera

he looks ridiculous at the plate right now

by long time listener on Aug 2, 2008 5:49 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Does anyone know if YES

will re-air the old timers game later on tonight? I can’t believe I missed it.
