New York Yankees 2012

[PCR]

That was one ugly series.

You ain't kidding. :sad

[icehog3]

Such a lame ALCS Congrats to the Tigers! I feel sorry for the Baltimore Orioles they deserved a shot at the Tigers and would have made it a more interesting ALCS.

The way the Tigers starting pitchers performed, that is debateable. :2

This could be a busy off season for the Yankees.

Yeah, and for every move they try to make, some Yankee-hating SOB will start moanin' and cryin' about how they're "buying the championship" or some such crap, despite all evidence to the contrary.

Well, they can all kiss my hairy white @$$. :r

Buying that championship didn't work out too well this year, did it? :r :r

And everyone knows I'm the biggest Yankee-hating SOB. :D

Why do people continue to ignore the facts, or at least select which facts to recall? For example, the Yankees were not the first to sign one of those mega-contracts that plague many teams these days, and began all these complaints from small-market teams whining they cannot compete. That distinction goes to the Rangers, who signed A-Rod away from the Mariners. Also, for every team that "buys" a player, there's some team that "sells" that player too. And this goes back at least to 1921, when the Red Sox sold Babe Ruth to New York, which started 86 years of frustration in Fenway. So why should the buyer get all the blame, while the seller skates?

Hey, how many big deals did the Mets make in recent years (Santana, Beltran, etc.) which didn't end in success, and how many potential stars (like Rios) did they refrain from ponying-up the cake needed to retain them, and again with no aid to their success?

It is easier to throw rocks accurately at others once you take the log out of your own eyes.

My Mets have made more than their share of bad deals with overpriced, over the hill free agents. Make sure that you don't forget Jason Bays' sorry a$$ in mentioning huge contracts that didn't pan out. :bh :bh

Major difference is that the Yankees ALWAYS spend the money...most other MLB teams can only afford to spend the big money every few years.

I'll bet the Yankees will just try to buy a championship this off season.

The Yankees off season is going very slow so far. They picked up the options on Cano & Granderson for 2013. BorAss would not discuss an extension on Cano so he will be testing the market after the season. They should look into trading Granderson for some pitching prospects. Mo is coming back as long as they can get a contract settled. Swisher is gone and will probably not return. They want Martin back but he is being looked at by multiple teams. Pettitte has not decided what he is doing yet. They are looking to bring Ichiro back and looking at Torii Hunter if he takes a 1 year offer. Still a lot of holes to fill especially in the starting rotation. Jeter should be readh for spring training.

[x man]

Jeter is out of his ankle boot and is
supposed to be ready for opening day.
He is working on a treadmill in the water.

I just figured anything posted from here on out pertains to the coming season rather than 2012.....

I can't disagree . . . though some might argue that anything pertaining to Jeter IS last year, if not last decade. :r

Jete led the league in hits last year. 216.

Hey, we ALL heard the same $#!+ LAST year this time, right?

Well, pretty much the same sh-t.

Hafner signed on for one yr.
Hope he`s healthy.

[x man]

Full team reports next Mon.

[x man]

Not bad for opening day of exhibition?:noon

[Islayphile]

Granderson hit by a pitch which fractured his forearm...out 10 weeks

[x man]

Bet they wished they signed Hamilton now.
Better teach Nunez to play left.
And The Fan guys said the same thing yesterday.

[x man]

Cashman broke his leg and ankle, needed surgery.
After skydiving.

[kelmac07]

Teixiera out 8-10 weeks with a strained wrist. Are the Yankees even going to have enough able bodies to field a team? :r :r :r

Probably could beat the Mets with 8 guys.:r

Sup?

That isn't saying much...with our pitching staff, the Chico's Bail Bonds sponsored Bad News Bears could beat us.

[MedicCook]

It's a good thing Youk can play first & third. Now to find a way for him to play them both at the same time.

[Dave128]

Holy crap, the Yanks are human!

[x man]

Juan Rivera played 1st base and went 3 for 4 and drove in all 3
runs yesterday.
Also rumors of Derek Lee and or Cudyer[spell].
But honestly, i am not hopeful for the opening months,
or for 2 yrs out with the no spending tax scared owners
cheapskate tactics.
Dad George wouldve said " what luxury tax"
sign whoever we need to have the best chance.
I`m done.

[x man]

I wonder where we would be if only 3 of the guys on the DL
returned.
Where are all the pinstripers here.
I`m as proud as ever to wear my hat.

[Islayphile]

The team is playing great considering all of the injuries, not just of our starters, but of 2nd stringers too.

[x man]

We would be in better shape if all our 2nd strings were there.
Now we have 3rd strings playing. Gotta be a record for guys on the DL
or day to day.

A rod

Joba
Grandy

[Islayphile]

No doubt about that

1st place sure is nice, even though they are sharing it with the Red Cox

:D

[x man]

They are not sharing it with anybody.
Check the percentage pts. again.
Unbelievable.

[Islayphile]

You were indeed correct

So far so good

[x man]

Nice split today.

[Islayphile]

Last night was painful

[Islayphile]

Awesome come from behind win tonight to back up Nova's performance

[Islayphile]

Ass kicking come from behind win against the Red Cox last night

:wo

[Blueface]

Just an observation, 2012 is over.:r

But yes, what a crazy game and series, as usual between the love the two teams share.

[x man]

This ain`t over yet.
Anybody pitching at that level
does not throw behind a batter by accident.
I try to stick to what goes on on the field.
446 ft. longest shot by the team all yr.
The Sox manager was a pitching coach, most of his career coaching,
and he dosnt know if his pitcher was aiming at the batter.
Just made the win like smokin a 10 yr old Cohiba Siglo, sahweeet.
