there has been some contact between matsui and #yankees. decent fit, considering team budget, his background

I'd rather they sign Barnd
At least when he strikes out it will be comical.

These graphs are misleading
Although a pitcher, I’d bet CC had more “plate” appearances than anybody else on the Yankees
Romine!
Colon will take that bet

I’d buy one

Teheran is suppose to be the second coming of Pedro
Even Beachy was suppose to be a #4 at best ended up striking out everybody that came up to the plate. At least it seemed that way.

This week’s episode wasn’t so good. They need to start resolving all those things that Ted keeps saying “more on that later” about.

There are still some funny moments, but this show is going on too long. I’m glad they going to resolve Barney/Robin by season’s end, though.

There's already a theory on who the mother is

The theory
Is that the “mother” is Barney’s sister-in-law.

by I'mGivingYouARaise on Jan 16, 2012 10:47 PM EST up reply actions
who's his sister-in-law?
Is this a character that’s been introduced? I am operating under the assumption that Barney is going to marry Robin at the end of the year. Is Robin’s sister the mother?
by long time listener on Jan 16, 2012 10:48 PM EST up reply actions
You mean half-sister? Barney’s dad’s daughter?

by long time listener on Jan 16, 2012 10:51 PM EST up reply actions
That's an interesting thought.
I think I’ve heard that theory before and it would make sense. I wonder when they’re planning that wedding. Season 8 (and possible series) finale?

She wasn't
But it was mentioned that Barney’s dad has a daughter in college. Theoretically, judging what her roommate said about her (she always steals boyfriends and such), judging that they supposedly are going to meet at Barney’s wedding, it’s a logical assumption.

Topic of discussion:
The Rays scored more runs on the road in 2011 than the Yankees.
DISCUSS!
For starters, I am shocked, in a pleasantly surprised kind of way. The Rays have improved their lineup so far. Assuming a decent pick up at 1b rather than Kotchman (Pena maybe), could the Rays score as many runs as the Yankees in 2012?

this was made by some Chicago fans, asking them to be objective is like asking Yankees fans to be objective about the Red Sox.

This is MLBTR's arbitration projections
Yankees (6)
Russell Martin – $6.7MM
Brett Gardner – $3.3MM
Phil Hughes – $3MM
Joba Chamberlain – $1.7MM
Boone Logan – $1.6MM
David Robertson – $1.5MM
what does that make out total payroll
Dave Gershman of Beyond the Box Score rated the top 12 NYY prospects
There’s only one “Tier 1” prospect. Guess who…
Not sure why he’s so low on J.R. Murphy. I think he’d be Tier 3?

how is he going to be below average, while all those other much younger and further away guys are sure to be good? and how is Warren on there but Phelps is nowhere? Can we please stop overvaluing the guys in Single A

by bloppy_ploppy on Jan 16, 2012 11:14 PM EST up reply actions
Never! Athleticism and 298 plate appearances in low-A ballooned by a .399 BABIP mean that Mason Williams is the best prospect in the system.
