Joe Girardi still insists that Brian Bruney is
his eighth-inning reliever, yet when the Yankees carried a
one-run lead into the eighth Friday, the manager turned to Phil Coke and Phil Hughes to get those three outs.

The Yankees have had the luxury in recent
years to possess more than one dominant reliever, which
enabled them to finish close games at a high success rate. The 2009 Yankees bullpen lacks a guy like Tom Gordon or Joba Chamberlain, and it might do more harm than good to designate one reliever as ...

Sorry for not posting after yesterday's game. My
friend Joe and I took a little road trip
to Erie, PA to check out the Trenton Thunder. They crushed the Seawolves 10-1. I also got Jesus Montero's autograph. Good times. Yesterday's game in a nutshell: A.J. was again the man. Hughes is in, ...

Squawker Jon royally mocked A.J. Burnett for saying
after his Boston loss that he had a few
"glimpses of greatness" this year. Who's laughing now, especially after Burnett shut out the Mets twice? He has gone 3-1 since that Boston game, with the only loss being that heartbreaking one against ...

"Bruney's our 8th-inning guy" --Joe Girardi, 1 July
2009 Brian Bruney did not pitch the 8th inning
of that game, a Yankee win; nor did he pitch the eighth inning today, also a Yankee win. Instead, those innings were given to a combination of Phil Coke and Phil Hughes, who, to their credit, have ...

From Mike Puma : Brian Bruney isn't launching
a campaign to keep his eighth-inning job. The inconsistent
Yankee reliever yesterday stopped short of saying he'd welcome a new role, but also made it known he wouldn't lose sleep if manager Joe Girardi were to make Phil Hughes the team's primary ...

Joe Girardi continues to call Brian Bruney the
setup man on this team, but after last night’s
blown save in the eighth, Bruney might be degraded to middle relief. After watching Phil Hughes continue to dominate the sixth and seventh innings, it seems he could potentially replace Bruney for the ...

Here's a quote from Hughes about his new
role, via Peter Abraham : "I feel like I
have more control, my stuff plays up a little bit," Hughes said. "It feels like a good fit for me. Who's to say what the future will be? Maybe this is what I do for the rest of my career." Still, Hughes sees the ...

- Good job by the Yankees having Mariano
Rivera throw out the ceremonial first pitch last night.
It was only fitting that he got the opportunity to pick up save number 501 later in the night. I wonder if this has ever happened before. - The baseball gods have been messing with the Mets since ...

Once I saw that the start of tonight's

had no intention of blogging after it ended. But it was a great win so how could I not? The team pulled Brian Bruney's ass out of the fire. He came in and absolutely sucked but the boys picked him up with some late ...

Given that Mariano Rivera threw out tonight's ceremonial
first pitch and that Joba Chamberlain was starting, it
is perhaps not surprising that in the end it came down to the bullpen. Joba Chamberlain started, and while he wasn't horrible in any sense of the word, he also wasn't very good, or ...
