Yeah, I know you guys sound like a broken record, always talking about the injuries and how there's still a lot of time left, but I don't mind.
As I've said, I admire and respect your optimism.

Btw, JJ, a point of information I've been meaning to mention:
The guy on the Yankees you've referred to a couple of times is Colter Bean, not "Beam".

Where's Irish right now, as the Yanks are getting spanked 19-1 in the 8th?  :p 
I studied Italian for 2 semesters. Not once was a "C" pronounced as a "G", and never was a trailing "I" ignored! And I'm from Jersey!  lol Whaddaya want me to do? Whack a guy? Off a guy? Whack off a guy? --Peter Griffin My DVDs | Facebook | Godfather Filming Locations

Good thing for all the Yankee fans that the Sox have dropped their last two.
Good thing for all the Red Sox fans that the Yanks have dropped their last two.
19-1, though. Ouch.
That sums up everything that's wrong with the Yankees: Starting pitching, bullpen, hitting.

Actually, I enjoyed the Yankees win, believe it or not.
First of all, I'm not an unrealistic, over optimistic, living-in-a-dream-world Mets fan, despite their huge lead.
I'm just a call-em-as-I-se-em realistic Baseball fan who happens to prefer the Mets to the Yankees, but my allegience to them, or any other team, extends as far as whether or not I bet on them on a particular day.
I bet on Pittsburgh the last two days because they were big underdogs, and today's come-from-behind victory by the Mets hurt me a lot more than any loss that they suffered at the hands of the Yankees, especially as I bet on the Yankees in all three games against the Mets, since I've been riding their cold streak.

Mussina is the first pitcher in American League history to win 10 games or more for 15 straight seasons, although many have done it ine the NL. Oh, and here....I ran across this little smiley for you diehard Yankee fans:
