You are correct Perry. It sucks that the Dodgers are not playing well. They need to win 3 straight.

Wow, CC Sabathia was a beast last night. I'm not a Yankee fan but that was great pitching. If they continue to play like this I think they're unstoppable.

Yikes, the big guns all have a few days rest now.

Wouldn't want to be a Yankee hater now.

I gotta give the 3rd base ump credit; he came on ESPN and admitted how bad the calls were and appologized, which took guts.

Just the same, I would need time to consider his request if he asked to sell beer in the stands from here on out.

LOL
Least he could do was apologize.
Can't figure out for the life of me how he was able to say foot was off the bag too early when his face was dead on left field and was not looking at the runner or bag.
Man has eyes on the side of his head.

In the end, I think it was all to get even with the bad call at second where Swisher should have been called out.

There were loads of bad calls.
It kinda evened out. Didn't even come close to making a difference, thankfully.
Had the Angels won, they'd convene Congress cause the Yanks got hosed.

Say what you want about the Yankees payroll, Teixeira WAS an Angel, Damon gave the Redsox a Wirld Series with a grandslam against the Yanks, for a couple more million, A-Rod was a Red Sox, and we would all be watching a different series.

It's the golden rule; whoever has the gold makes the rules.

shilala · 10-21-2009, 08:59 AM

I thought the Angels were gonna pull it out. After CC shut them down in the fifth and sixth, and arod hit that shot, I was like "dayum, what a machine."
The Yanks looked incredible.
I guess that's what an eleventy billion dollar payroll can get you.

floydpink · 10-21-2009, 09:46 AM

I steer clear of politics, but sure hope Obama isn't a Red Sox fan.

shilala · 10-21-2009, 10:03 AM

I'm also voting for a raise for arod.
He's pretty much been baseball this year.
Unbelievable.

floydpink · 10-21-2009, 10:13 AM

In his career against the Yankees, Kazmir has a 6-4 record and 2.53 ERA

All bets off this year.

No raise necessary for A-Rod, a half billion between him and CC should suffice.

MedicCook · 10-21-2009, 11:21 AM

The small market teams could sign players also with all the money they get from the Yankees, Red Sox, Mets & Dodgers. Their owners prefer to pocket the money instead of putting it back into the team. The Steinbrenners would rathder lose money on the team if it meant winning and making the fans happy.

floydpink · 10-21-2009, 12:21 PM

That's why they call it a luxury tax. You pay for the luxury of consistently winning and filling stadiums wherever you go.

The Poet · 10-21-2009, 02:41 PM

There are half-a-dozen teams that spend money like drunken sailors, not just the Yankees. The biggest difference is that, when the Yanks make a mistake (can you say "Carl Pavano", for instance?), they have both the will and the means to eat the error and attempt to correct it with another move. Other teams just shrug and say "Wait 'til next year."

Blindjimme · 10-21-2009, 02:43 PM

Speaking of next year, any more word on Sabathia in an Angels uniform next season?

No offense, but players don't leave The Bronx - The Bronx leaves them.

Not unless the Yanks trade him. He can opt out of his current contract after three years. He'll likely do that anyway to squeeze more money out of the Yanks but I don't see him leaving NY anytime soon. No one else can pay him as much as we do!
