Let's keep it that way, huh?

LoL, works for me. Also, digging the new avatar Don Geoff

Other than the 2 homeruns he gave up, I thought Pettitte looked pretty good for a guy who hadn't pitched in the majors in 18 months.

How cool, the Yankees and Mets both have 20-15 records. Now they have to get into first place.

So Nova left his start last night with a bruised and sprained right ankle and now Robertson's on the DL with a strained left oblique muscle. Who's next to go on the DL?!

Hey dt

Why don't you start a "How about those Blue Jays" thread? Then you can post replies to yourself. Maybe even SC would join in.

It's not my fault 1/2 of the people here are from New York

dt, this is why I believe women shouldn't follow baseball.

Oh yeah, I was told I throw like a guy, and I once stretched a double into a single. BTW, the Blue Jays kicked Yankee butt....OUcH. I think I'll go have a LaBatts or a Molson.

I would recommend a Cracked Canoe or Alexander Keith's. Both are better beers than Labatt or Molson.

V-I-C-T-O-R-Y. They gotta start hitting or the 2 1/2 starting pitchers are going to be laboring.

Do they realize how stupid they sound? The attendance is down because StubHub sells tickets for too LOW a price? I have yet to attend a game at the new stadium because I simply can't afford it. The tickets, the parking, the food, it's all outrageously expensive. They've taken what was once a nice family outing and made it unavailable to most.

Anyone hear anything about Mo??

Am I the only one who read the article and was thinking, "what are they talking about?!" I have NEVER had an experience on StubHub where the tickets were less expensive. They've always been HIGHER than their face value.

As for Mo, he's scheduled to have the surgery on Tuesday

Same here. A few years ago, they were playing the Red Sox at home on my husband's birthday. I thought it would be a great gift. Even the crappy seats on StubHub were outrageously expensive. Even the "OK" seats were $750 each. Needless to say, we watched the game on TV.

I think Mo is going to be surprised at how long his recovery might be. The blood thinners he will be on force you to limit activity (bruising can be dangerous, a cut can be life-threatening), plus they can make you light-headed and lethargic. In my experience, he will be on them a minimum of six months after the clot, but hopefully he will rehab successfully over the winter.

Yeah, the article only stated that he plans on pitching in 2013. When he was first injured, I thought I remember him saying that he was going to try to be ready for the start of the season. I heard no such claim in this story so I'm taking it as, he won't be ready for the beginning of the 2013 season.

Such a shame for this guy. I REALLY hope this doesn't ruin his career the way the base running incident in Houston sidetracked Chien Mieng-Wang's career. He was never the same pitcher.

6 in a row. The Nationals are thanking the Yankees for sweeping Mets and Atlanta.....oh and thank you Mets for 2 against the Rays.

Also, Mo's surgery went very well, so that's great news. Here's hoping he has a good recovery. Even if he never pitches again, the man is a legend, and I hope he does well.

Roberton's coming back too this weekend against the Nats. Plus, Gardiner's gonna be out another 3-4 weeks with an elbow strain

9 in a row. go. go. go.

Clemens found Not Guilty ... Guilty or not, it was still nice to hear...

I wasn't surprised at all. I followed that trial and after Pettitte said his chances of remembering that conversation were 50-50, I knew it was over.

Not only that, but what happened recently with Ryan Braun (him getting off on a technicality due to an improper chain of command), I figured the same would hold true here and it looks like it may have. I genuinely feel bad for McNamee if he did indeed store that material as it was and didn't doctor it up. He felt it was the smoking gun, Clemens disposed of material. Nobody could say he was lying, here was proof. That's no good nowadays. He had to follow proper storing techniques and due to the lack of this, it was all for not.

10 now. 1 more and they tie their longest winning streak with the 1985 team, since the division era began

Yesterday I heard Swisher on WFAN with Mike Francesa. He is a whack job, but a nice, happy whack job.

Yeah I like Swish. He seems like a kid out there, genuinely having fun - no ego. Hard knowing it'll be his last year in New York probably

I may have mentioned in another thread that my brother-in-law has a catering business. Among his clients are the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yankees. He often provides pre or post-game meals for the team and visiting team.

Some of the newer Yankees, who recently played in Scranton, have been talking about the food, particularly the assorted sromboli he made, which was a favorite. Now the NY Yankees contacted him to deliver a bunch of stromboli to the team on a get away day in July. He's hoping to bring it personally to the clubhouse. If so, he'll try to bring my boys as helpers that day.

I always wanted you to think of me like a son....
