ARod will not only win the MVP this season, he will also win his first ring.

Do you win a ring for finishing in 3rd place in the AL East? I don't think so. In 2007, there'll be no ring for the yanks or Arod once again.

Mariano is nearing the end of a great career and the yank starters are so-so. As demonstrated last night, it don't matter if arod accounts for 4 runs if your pitching staff gets crushed. It will be interesting to see how karstens does today. Sox should win again.

Arod is a loser. good hitter but a loser. crown him the king of april baseball if you like, but what happens when it matters in September and October? he doesn't hit, makes errors and tries to cheat his way on base. I'm very glad that his deal to Boston was not allowed and so he went to NY. You guys like him? Enjoy him once again having great individual stats and choking again when it matters most for the team.

Your right, our pitching sucks right now due to injury, and yes Mariano blew a save, and yes we may end up swept in this series, but u know what...WERE STILL RIGHT THERE!

See u in Sept.

Hahaha, love Sox fans!

My theory is that if Boston takes 2 of 3 next weekend, then the Yankees are done. Don't care if its april or not. They look really bad. Especially when Rodriguez hits 2 hrs and they still can't win hahahaha good shit.

You yankee fans are really delusional. Your pitching sucks period. Starters, middle relief and "closer". Not good. Cashman has been making stupid deals for 4-5 yrs and those chickens are coming home to roost. Mariano spit the bit again last night. He's a Hall of Famer but its looking like there isn't a lot left in the tank. Joe Torre should have been moved to the front office after 2004. The yankees look sluggish as if they are sleep walking. They need a shake up. But as a Sox fan I'm happy to sit back and wach George do nothing as Rome burns.

For a fan of a team that came back from a 3-0 hole, you sure are counting us out a little too soon dont you think?

Your right, our pitching sucks right now, but that still does not mean we cant turn it around. Call me dillusional...thats fine. I just think its WAY too early to count us out.

This is top 5 worst posts I've ever read from an otherwise good poster. Yanks are done in April? I guess you forgot that they suck in April every single year, just as they win the division every single year.

Just checking in on this thread. For the record its now May 20th and the yanks are sitting in 4th place 10.5 games out of the race. Not just that, but they continue to play like a bunch of bums. As a life long sox fan, I am shocked that Steinbrenner has not cleaned house. George must be getting soft in his old age because the old Steinbrenner would have been swinging the axe fast and furiously. The notion that Roger is gonna ride in a $28M white horse and save the day is hilarious.

He's only going to pitch once every 5 games for them and the way the rest of the Yankees are playing right now it isn't going to make much of a difference really. Rather than a 40+ pitcher, who is still very good, I will give him that, the Yankees need an injection of youth into their side.
Or perhaps it is time they let go of Torre and start from scratch with some new ideas rather than the tactics they have had for the last decade or so in Torre's awesome reign at the helm. With all great managers though there comes a time when there is nothing more you can do: the team know Torre's motivational methods like the back of their hands right now, making them less effective.
It is only May, but 10.5 games is a hell of a lot and by mid-June if the Yankees fail to gain any significant ground on the Sox they can literally say goodbye at any thoughts of an October appearance.

" Stray Rod " is an enbarrassment to the Yankees ! First the B.S. with another woman, then with the Bush League "HA" play !
What a tool !

I agree, I mean that faux-calling for the ball is looked down upon even in HS baseball.
