Well, the game was not exactly a joy to watch. It was actually a mess, but it was still great to be in the stadium. It turned out to be a wonderful day, weatherwise, so that was a good thing. And then we went to eat in the Bronx, and that turned out to be the highlight of the day.

....Louis? It's perfect for you. It's got one of those toilets with the chain....

Down here in Philly/Eagle country I don't get any good Yankee news; just those little boxscores with a paragraph. They didn't mention that Girardi missed a second game with an upper respiratory infection. What's with that? The Yankees better find their bats. Their pitching staff is not their strength.

Girardi had 103 fever Friday, and hasn't been able to leave his office for the last two days. He says that he'll be back today (which we'll find out in a few minutes).

The Yankee bats are VERY well camouflaged, Klyd. With the exception of ARod and Posada, there wasn't a heck of a lot of hitting going on. Giambi, Jeter, Damon, Cano - they all seem to be in the same slump.

I'm glad that they are making a big deal about it because to me it's very historic. The Yankees are IMO the best sports franchise in North American history and Yankee Stadium is one of sport's most hollowed grounds. It won't be the same next year in the "new Yankee Stadium" and some will be crying to go back to the old one.


will? They already are.

WTF is this shit???!!! \:o

Jeter’s injury acute pain for Yanks
 Quote:
By Jeff Passan, Yahoo! Sports 9 hours, 12 minutes ago

NEW YORK – Joe Girardi didn’t say no. Joe Torre would have.

Now, this is not to compare Girardi and Torre, not in a mano-a-mano fashion at least, but one that deals with today’s reality in the New York Yankees universe: Suggestions that Alex Rodriguez move to shortstop if the strained left quadriceps that forced Derek Jeter out of a game Monday lingers.

“There’s a lot of different scenarios we’ll talk about as a club and decide what we’re going to do,” Girardi said, and even though there was little substance to his words, it felt frighteningly candid – and, considering the other options, a rather sensible idea. Because under Torre’s watch, no matter how damaging to the Yankees in the short or long term, he wouldn’t dare place someone of consequence at Jeter’s position for fear of upsetting the captain’s chi.

Only if the injury doesn’t heal – Jeter thinks it’ll take a day or two, Girardi closer to a week and both hope he can avoid the disabled list – might the sentiment change, and even then it would be a hard sell. And that’s an important point to discuss, particularly months after a number of studies concluded that Jeter is among, if not the, worst-fielding shortstop in the major leagues.

One large study, conducted at the Wharton Business School, uses a metric – a statistic-based analysis – to show how Jeter was the pits from 2002-05 and Rodriguez was among the best shortstops. Its veracity is questionable, considering it named the positively slothful Ken Harvey as its first-base representative.

Not nearly as dubious is John Dewan’s book, “The Fielding Bible”, in which Dewan culls data from every play and rates players on a plus-minus scale – plus for making a play that at least one of his peers had missed, and minus for the opposite. It is the new standard for fielding statistics, and in the past three years, Jeter is minus-90, the second-worst number in all of baseball, better only than Manny Ramirez’s minus-109.


Is that damning enough to even entertain alternates at the position of the most beloved Yankee of the past two decades? Probably not, even though the Yankees sure have a built-in excuse if they want to see whether a bulkier, older A-Rod can cut it at shortstop.

It doesn’t help that Jeter’s legs, his springboards in the field, are causing him such trouble. In the bottom of the first inning Monday with a runner on first base against Tampa Bay, Jeter slapped a ground ball at the third baseman and lurched as much as ran down the line. He beat the double-play throw, spent another half-inning in the field and left before the third inning.

“He’s always been a tough kid, and he wants to be out there,” Girardi said. “No matter how his body feels, he wants to be out there. But you know, with these conditions, you jeopardize really hurting yourself badly, and we don’t want that, because we can’t afford to miss him for a long time.”

Jeter can still hit. He proves that every year, his inside-out stroke shooting balls to right field and reinforcing his opportunism. Jeter gets the loudest cheers at Yankee Stadium, and he didn’t earn them only by smiling into a camera.

Ultimately, such deification comes to roost, and to think the 33-year-old Jeter, with more than 12 seasons at the most demanding position, wants to continue playing shortstop deep into the decade is troublesome. Try center field. Settle at first base. Anything to keep him upright, which he has managed to stay with stunning regularity thus far.

Jeter first felt a twinge in his quad during the Yankees’ Sunday game and iced it before Monday’s game. That didn’t help, and Jeter ended up in an MRI tube to rule out extensive damage. Doctors found a low-level strain, nothing like in 2001, when Jeter missed Opening Day because of his right quad.

“That was worse,” Jeter said. “This is a mild strain, from what I was told. The other one was a lot worse than that. It was something you could feel moving your leg, period. This one is more when I put for a little effort. I really start running before I feel it.”

Soon after he felt it, Jeter excused himself. Wilson Betemit moved from first base to shortstop. Betemit, at 230 pounds, plays the position with all the agility of a cast-iron skillet. He’s not the answer.

Aside from Betemit and A-Rod, there’s not another person on the Yankees’ active roster who can play shortstop. They could call up rookie Alberto Gonzalez, who is on the team’s 40-man roster, or Cody Ransom, who would require a roster move but bring more experience. Or, of course, they could put A-Rod at short and use Morgan Ensberg, a natural third baseman, to fill in.

Like Girardi said, plenty of scenarios.

If Jeter heals slowly, it could get ugly, as quad strains tend to hang around like freeloaders. Mark Teixeira spent five weeks on the DL with one last season. Bengie Molina hobbled around most of spring. Victor Martinez missed a dozen games last year.

Jeter will sacrifice his first Tuesday afternoon. As much as he wants to play, Jeter recognizes Girardi runs a different ship than Torre did. When Girardi says no, he means it, and while he gladly massages egos, he also keeps them in check.

So for now it falls on Betemit, a natural shortstop who outgrew the position about 40 pounds ago. He’ll stand in the most trafficked position on the field, and he’ll replace a no-doubt Hall of Famer, and he’ll try to swim.

Rodriguez will stand next to him. He last played shortstop full time in 2003. Five years is a long time. And still, the idea just won’t die. It’s so crazy it just might work, and weird as it sounds, that’s the last thing the Yankees need.

That is absurd, and I think that if he did it, Girardi would put ARod in a spin. Just when the NY crowds have come to accept him, and when he finally seems comfortable playing in NY, it would be a disaster to put him in Jeter's position. I think the crowds would most definitely express their unhappiness. Geez, the article acts like Jeter's going to be out for the season, when it looks more like 3-5 days.

As for him being over-rated, take a look at any compilation of "Greatest Plays in Baseball" and I can guarantee that there will be, at minimum, three of Jeter's: The Dive, The Flip, and Mr. November.

Jeter might be the greatest shortstop in leauge history. Not on a defensive side but hitting wise.

What was really great news about Wang's performance is that he is usually not nearly as good on the road as he is at home.

So, the game was in a rain delay for quite some time. They finally started playing again, it was the top of the 9th, there were 2 outs, Cano was up, the count was full, AND FOX SWITCHED TO NASCAR AND GAVE INSTRUCTIONS TO SWITCH TO FX TO WATCH THE END OF THE GAME!!!!!!!!!!

It took us a few minutes to figure out which channel FX was, and by the time we found the game, it was over. That SUCKED. I hate when the games are on Fox!

What, no mention of "Jersey Gate"?

I mean, a Red Sox fan having the gall to bury a Sox jersey inside the new Yankee Stadium....its funny as hell, and awesome that he actually pulled it off.

Now when new Fenway Park is built inevitably, a Yanks fan better plant a Jeter uniform inside the new Green Monster...

And what of Cal Ripken Jr? Hell, unless I'm mistaken, he still owns the career Home Run mark for ShortStops.

Workers dig furiously to rid new Yanks stadium of Red Sox jersey
ESPN.com news services

Crisis, and curse, averted.

It took about five hours, but the Red Sox jersey that was embedded in the concrete of the Yankees' new stadium to place a curse on the New York franchise has been unearthed with jackhammers.

Earlier this week, a construction worker who is a Boston fan working on the concrete crew at the $1.3 billion new Yankee Stadium buried a Red Sox shirt in with the concrete foundation, in the hopes of jinxing the New York Yankees' new home, the New York Post reported.

The newspaper reported Sunday that two workers approached a construction manager with what they thought was the location of the jersey. After digging a two-foot by three-foot hole, the jersey was found.

"They absolutely pinpointed that if it was in the ground, that's where it was," Yankees spokeswoman Alice McGillion told the newspaper.

Initially the Yankees denied the jersey was ever buried in the footings of the new stadium. But clearly the Yankees brass is happier now with the possibility of a curse gone.

"I hope his co-workers kick the [expletive] out of him," Yankees co-chairperson Hal Steinbrenner said.

The newspaper said the jersey felt like a filthy rag, but the word "Red" was clearly visible.

The Yankees plan to donate the jersey to charity, and may pursue a lawsuit against the construction worker.

There are precedents for fans strategically burying trinkets for good luck. During the construction of the ice rink for the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, a worker laid a Canadian one-dollar coin (known as a "loonie") at center ice. Canada went on to win its first gold medal in men's ice hockey since 1952.

And Mickey Bradley, a co-author of "Haunted Baseball," told the New York Post that a worker was said to have buried an unknown good-luck charm in a water main trench of the current Yankee Stadium back in 1920.

"Prior to that, they never won a World Series," he told the newspaper.

The Yankees went on to win 26 world championships since.

Oh Hank, you can't get a laugh out of this embarrassing stunt and leave it be?

Besides, if you do the lawsuit and win $500 and the shirt off his back, what then?

A David Ortiz Jersey for some sweaty guido's undershirt?

Yeah, the game's been going by slowly. It's painful to follow Hughes. I know he's only 21 and he is projected to be "a dominant and great pitcher" but at this stage in his career, he's not economical at all.

Nice "Yankees Suck!" chant here with 2 outs in the 9th... and right now, they do!


Right now??? They've sucked since January 3, 1973 (when Steinbrenner bought them).

Umm... 1977... 1978... 1996... 1998!... 1999... 2000... k, that's it. Since '73. \:p

Let's not forget, despite the Sux recent run... The Yankees have made it to 39 of the 103 Series (38%) through 2007 and have won 26 of them, which is far more than any other major franchise (in any sport). 30 AL Pennants. 15 Division titles since '76.

WTF you talking about? \:p

Sox? 7 Championships (just 2 since 1918). 12 pennants (2 since '86). 7 Division titles (1 since '95).

Pfft!



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! tongue lol

Don't mistake winning flags as being a decent organization.

Now go home and get your short pants and shine box.
