On the Yankees beat

With Alou looking like he is the first Met to fall, I wonder if the Red Sox would trade Coco Crisp to Queens.

Problem is anyone worth getting was already sent to Minnesota

Man I can't wait for the season to start

Greeaaaaaattt pitching performance by the young stars today. Tubby and the Toothpick really got the job done. Such a fundamentally sound team.....especially that sparkling defense. Shelly needs to go back to working on the footwork Im afraid. Cant blame Tubby though...there were probably bugs flying around. Great managing too. Put the strating roster out there to lose to a bunch of nobodies half of whom will never wear a major league uniform.

Well at least you proved that you guys can hit against a collection of second graders. Who were those guys on that Minnesota staff. See I haven't heard anything about them being these phenoms who are garranteed hall of famers....yet as bad as they pitched.....they outpitched your "Future of the Organization" clowns. If I were Ramirez I wouldn't get too close to Tubby. He may look like a quick snack to him. I mean for a guy that was supposed to be unhittable with 18 pitches or something....this guy was supposed to have the big attitude and no one could lay a glove on him. Well a bunch of AA guys cleaned his clock today. Yeah that Jones guy with 14 total games at the big league level.....boom....see ya. And what happen to all those strike outs? I guess the other team figured out his 18 pitches and didn't whiff at them.

What a Freakin' Joke. And this is what gets you guys all warm and fuzzy inside. Laughable pitching....hilarious defense......hysterical managment. AThis years new hit Comedy series.

So tell me again, where am I wrong?

Say Hey,

You are wrong because you are putting lots of weight on spring training games.

Last year the Yankees finished spring training 1 game over .500
The Astros, Cardinals, Reds, Orioles, Rangers and A's all had winning records... and that didn't exactly result in solid seasons

You aren't throwing your best stuff in spring training... especially nearly two weeks BEFORE St. Patricks Day.

Nobody cares about spring training results.
Coaches are looking at their mechanics, the pitch count and trying out pitches.

Imagine airing it all out in Port St Lucie or Viera Florida and be worn out by June!

I'm a Red Sox fan and not a cuddly Yankee lover... but I enjoy the people on this board because they tend not to say stupid things over and over.

And putting stock in spring training results is pretty stupid.

It's like judging a play during the table read.

As you may know, my baseball knowledge is extremely limited. I am a die hard Brewers fan, and worship Bud Selig. You may not know this, but I participate in the sausage races every night at Miller Park, and enjoy taking the sausage only by mouth (wink wink). But let's not talk about me, let's talk about what we're all here for: THE YANKEES!

unfortunately, my bashing of the Yankees young field players and pitchers is only done to overshadow how much I truly love each and everyone of them, and wish they were in my farm system. Phil Hughes is a God, with the best young stuff in the game. Followed by him you have a future star in Joba Chamberlain, whether he is a starter or reliever. Ian Kennedy, Austin Jackson, and Jose Tabata are going to be fantastic major league players. And let's not forget my favorite player, Shelley Duncan. Duncan is the perfect player, and I try and model myself after him in life and in looks.

Basically, I'm trying to tell you that everything I have said in the past, and everything I say in the future, totally disregard. This message is all you need to look at. If in the future I change my ways, just refer me back to this original message, and I will again be able to see the light!

The Mets are a big joke, as well. Haha, Delgado

So tell me again, where am I wrong?

LOL.....Sully, Say Hey is like that retarded kid on the bus that keeps pulling your hair. You keep turning around and he has that cross eyed look on his face and a crooked smile. So you ignore him, but he keeps pulling your hair. So you can do one of three things.

1. Ignore him, because you know he's mentally challenged.
2. Move to a difference seat
3. Stand up and crack his jaw.

If you do #2.. then that would be going to a different site, not gonna happen.

If you do #3...well then everyone else on the Bus will call you a jerk for beating up on a retard.

If you do #1...well then he's gonna keep pulling your hair.

Ive done #3 several times, he doesnt get the picture. Frankly, he bores me now. At least some of the trolls are funny, but he doesn’t have knowledge of baseball or humor..a bad combo. Since he doesn’t have anything good to say back, its not really fun to beat on him anymore. So now I just take a page out of Diane's book and go for option #1.

But every once in a whille...I like to smack him in the face.....

=======================================
Moises Alou is expected to miss at least 4-6 weeks because of a hernia.

We doubt it will be four weeks. Given Alou's history, count on six and don't be surprised if it's eight. As things stand now, Endy Chavez will be penciled in as the replacement in left field.
=======================================

SMACK!!!!!

I guess I am a jerk after all.

GO METS!!!!

I find it funny that Say Hey hates the Yanks with a passion, yet doesn't seem to miss an inning of their games. Kinda like a Glenn Close "Fatal Attraction" thing....I'm worried for him/her/it.

Jim A,

You guys are taking these others much too seriously. I used to call them the crazies. The exist on both sides of the force! They do amuse me though. I can find the humor in most anything though.

Nudge,
I'm not really taking any of them seriously, I am just having some fun too.

Say Hey:

Stop playing on the computer with these other boys and come back to bed. I miss you.
