About the Yankees winning the division, Wang being dominant or Matsui being the Yankees MVP this year?

Until Derek Jeter retires, no one else will be MVP of the team. Jeter just gained the distinction of being the first MLB player since the 1800's to hit safely in 92 of his last 100 games.

they've proven many people wrong before, and its only may but i think the yankees are toast this year. the smartest thing they could do is to allow cashman to really rebuild this team with great young talent like hughes and wang and start from the ground up, but the culture of the yankees over the past several years is in direct opposition of that.

actually, cashman has been stockpiling the minor leagues with talent. their farm system is top rated by baseball american and espn.
I love him. He's like those happy old people who become known for sitting by the side of a busy street and waving to passing cars. People drive by regularly and beep just to see him and get him to wave to them.
That's just like our Arpi... except he doesn't wave or anything. He just says mean things to you. GonzoStyle Wrote:I pledge my undying love for Arpi, any retraction of this undying love is to be ignored. Nominated for," 2005 poster of the year", by 4 out of 6 mods!

Yeah, to be honest, I can't say anything good about the Yanks right now, except when it come to Posada and Jeter. Jeter has been swinging the bat the same exact way for like over two years now.

Hey, you're talking about the man who not only defys the odds with his bat, but also in Gold Golve selections.

broadcasters that feel the need to jinx no hitters annoy the fuck out of me

Bobby Murcer's first came back, and he joined in the chorus. I won't forgive them.

Where did you see the Yankees ranked 17th? I believe they are ranked in the top 10. John Sickels also put them in the top 10. Not only do they have Hughes, but Jose Tabata is suppsedly really good, and he's only 18. It's mostly pitchers that they have aside from Tabata. *edit* shocking, I'm right. What a surprise. BA had the Yankees system ranked 7th (Boston 9th, Mets 13th) Baseball Prospectus had the Yankees system ranked 4th (Mets 8th, Red Sox 11th) Hardball Times has the Yankees ranked 11th (Mets 8th, Red Sox 13th) John Sickels has the Yankees ranked 6th (Red Sox 9th, Mets 17th)

they were ranked 17th in last year's ranks

this is such an awesome year.
Another broken bone. Another broken bone. Now comes Clippard.

the yankee starting pitcher any given night has to feel like the drummer from spinal tap.

If the Red Sox go .500 for the rest of the year, the Yankees have to go 72-49 to win the division, which is a 110 win pace over a full season.
Seriously, the season is already over. The Red Sox have won the division already. |
