Gameday Live 161: Yankees at Red Sox
Mike Gavin here for another day of Yankee baseball.
One of the major reasons the Yankees will be missing the playoffs for the first time in 13 years has been their inability to hit consistently this season. An abundance of runs one night would be followed by a lack of hits the next. After last night's onslaught, it will be interesting to see how the bats respond today.
Nothing on the line but pride today as Sidney Ponson takes on Josh Beckett and the Red Sox. The rain is coming down hard, first pitch may not be anytime soon......
5:15 -- No baseball at Fenway today which means double the fun tomorrow with a day-night doubleheader.

According to Jon Heyman, the Yankees are planning to make a major play for Nate McLouth this winter. This follows a rumor by Ken Rosenthal a couple of weeks ago that said that while negotiating the Xavier Nady deal the Yankees and Pirates also put together the framework of a deal that would send McLouth and Maholm or Ian Snell to the Yankees. It was said that the deal couldn't be done at the time because it would have included Robbie Cano going to the Pirates and the Yankees didn't feel they could replace Cano mid season but with Olrando Hudson available as a free agent this winter, that's no longer a major obstacle.
