Is it wrong to want to humiliate Dallas Braden?

I’d kind of like to see every Yankee moonwalk across the mound while he’s pitching.
Then I’d like to see every Yankee get a home run off him in the first inning before he records a single out to force him from the game in the first
Then I’d like to see CC smoke every Oakland batter for an 81-pitch, 27 K perfect game.

I'd love to see that

I really don’t like this guy. He overreacts, and then his idea of “making peace” with A-Rod is sending him his own perfect game memorabilia. To me, that doesn’t sound like making peace with him. That sounds like Braden rubbing his one and only achievement of his career in Alex’s face. I’d be pretty ticked off if he did that to me, to be honest.

maybe Ardo should send him his 500th home run ball.

Huge hypothetical question sports fans...

If Girardi foolishly took the Cubs job next year, and Torre wanted to come back and ride it out with Mariano and Derek…….Yankee fans would:

a. love it
b. hate it
c. be numb to it

I suspect they'd love it

Until the first slump. I still have a lot of respect for Torre and think he was/is a great manager, but I hate the way he uses bullpens, and the Yankees have a lot of young arms out there. So I’d keep my fingers crossed if it happened.

by long time listener on Sep 2, 2010 3:37 PM EDT up reply actions  

Girardi has done well with us..i hope he doesn't leave

plus he doesn;t abuse the bullpen..i remember dodgers fan complaining when torre made broxton threw 90 pitches over a 3 day span
