Ichiro seems to have a swing that was made for Yankees stadium. I think he can be very dangerous vs. righties at the Stadium.

I understand YankeeHate has been fashionable for decades and is a birthrite for most of the population, but seriously?
I listened to 8 callers in a row yesterday on the WFAN talk about how no one would know who Jeter was if he played on any other team.

The man's going to finish in the top 10 in almost every category there is. He's rubbing shoulders now with the likes of Willie Mays and Lou Gehrig. He's leading the league in hits at 38 freakin years old. He's never been thrown out of a game.

I hate the Mets, and could care less about almost every other team in MLB. But I can respect the achievements, skill and professionalism of people like Seaver, Leiter and Cone (<----yeah, a little bias on that last one). I can be in awe at times of people like Maurer and Hamilton and Pujols. Don't people realize they sound stupid?

Skip Bayless basically said he wouldn't be suprised if Jeter is using something considering he's hitting .320.

With the exception of ARod, you apparently have to leave the Yankees before you get caught. Melky, Colon...

It wouldn't surprise me for any player regardless of how classy the player is considered.

Baseball is a long season of streaky play. I still think the Yankees have as good a shot as anyone.

Yeah, I'd rather be the Dead Sox. Bet they're not worried about anything.

I panic when I can't remember if we have 27 or 28 rings...

I'm channeling Nyetslod. Must be the 4 cups of coffee.

Was going to mention the Mets, but I always think that's so inhumane.

And Bobby Valentine is always funny. (As long as he stays on other teams.)

Since when do the Yankees pull a "Mets" at the end of the season?

It's like the Yankees are the Mets this year, and the Mets are an even worst version of themselves.

Relax folks. This bandwagon's last 10 games are going to tell the tale. If we fold against teams playing for nothing, then you can go buy your new TB Ray's hat.

Now that was a textbook whup-azz on the Orioles yesterday. 13 - 3. Bullpen throws a one hit shutout after Freddy gets shaky early.

Any news on whether Kuroda might return next year? I saw one message board poster say he definitely wasn't but I can't find any news on the topic.
