A little blurry, but thought I would share some more photos of A.J. Burnett, Joe Girardi, and Jose Molina on their floats. Any coincidence that Molina and Burnett share one float?

The Case for Limiting Mound Meetings

Tue, 3 Nov 2009 13:30:47 +0000

I found this Associated Press report at Newsday regarding the issue of mound meetings slowing down games, specifically in the postseason. It appears that Mike Port, MLB Vice President of Umpiring, believes that frequent mound meetings will be discussed by league officials this offseason. ...

To A.J. Or Not to A.J.

Mon, 2 Nov 2009 21:07:00 +0000

Here's the million dollar question: Do you want A.J. Burnett starting game 5 over Chad Gaudin ? I'm not sure myself. There are pros and cons to both and I'm not sure which side has better arguments. This decision could end up proving to be a colossal mistake. It could definitely end up biting ...

Molina & Gardner In, Melky Move To Come

Mon, 2 Nov 2009 22:20:00 +0000

That's the news according to LoHud eminating from the press conference with Joe Girardi. Jose Molina will again be catching A.J. Burnett while Brett Gardner gets the start in center over Jerry Hairston, Jr., thankfully. Girardi also said that the Yanks are in discussions with the MLB in ...

Hairston and Molina

Thu, 29 Oct 2009 22:12:27 +0000

I thought with the Yankees carrying two catchers, Posada would start every game of the World Series. Girardi, however is sticking with Jose Molina behind the plate , and he’s also using Jerry Hairston instead of Nick Swisher. Girardi said that Hairston’s record of success against ...

Cliff Lee Dominates Yanks From Easy Chair

Thu, 29 Oct 2009 10:59:49 +0000

Maybe Roy Halladay wasn’t the best pitcher available at the trade deadline. Cliff Lee, who just two years ago was sent down to AAA, dominated the Yankees last night at the Stadium and made it look easy. He did it the old “Ray Miller way” as he worked fast, threw strikes, and ...

The Wrong Panic Move

Thu, 29 Oct 2009 20:28:16 +0000

Well the lineup is in and Molina is catching AJ but we also have a change in right. Swisher is on the bench and...HARISTON is in? I looked it up and the reason has to be that Hairston has hit .333/.407/.500 against Pedro in his career. Of course that is off of a whopping 24 AB's. ...

Analysis: Girardi Succumbs to Old Myths

Fri, 30 Oct 2009 17:27:06 +0000

Yankees Manager Joe Girardi, for all his emphasis on enlightened thinking, succumbed to two myths on Thursday in setting his lineup for Game 2 -- that hitting streaks matter in baseball, and that pitchers perform better with certain catchers.

Back To Even

Fri, 30 Oct 2009 12:00:00 +0000

For all the complaining that we did about Joe Girardi's managerial decisions before the game, the difference between having not having Jorge Posada and Gardner/Hinske/Swisher in the line up was not that big in terms of run expectancy. When the tires met the road in the Bronx last night, ...

Somewhat Shocking

Tue, 27 Oct 2009 12:17:58 +0000

Jon Heyman reports that the Yankees are leaning towards using a rotation of CC-AJ-Andy-CC-AJ-Andy-CC in the World Seires meaning Sabathia would make 3 starts (two on three-days rest) and Andy and Burnett would make two (the second on three-days rest) I find it interesting ...

Roster Set?

Wed, 28 Oct 2009 01:25:38 +0000

Sounds like Hinske and Bruney are in and Guzman and Cervelli are out. The Hinske move was the obvious one and had to be done. Normally, I wouldn't want to add a 12th pitcher at the expense of a batter, but in this case I like it. With Games 3-4-5 on consecutive days, Girardi ...

Swisher Sits, Hariston Starts

Thu, 29 Oct 2009 20:44:00 +0000

Nick Swisher will not be in tonight's starting lineup for the Yankees . Joe Girardi has finally decided to sit his struggling right-fielder, who is just 11 of his last 77 (.143) with 1 homer and 4 RBI. If you ask me, it's about damn time. Jerry Hairston Jr., who is 10-for-27 against Pedro ...

Burnett’ Electric and Yanks are Even

Fri, 30 Oct 2009 10:48:49 +0000

A.J. Burnett may have finally put any doubts to rest with his performance last night. Burnett had electric stuff, especially his curveball, and held the fort down just enough for the Yankees bats to get going in the 3-1 win. It seems listening to Cliff Lee a night earlier talk about confidence ...

The answer: Burnett helps Yankees even series

Fri, 30 Oct 2009 05:16:00 +0000

Going down 2-0 in a series would have been a very tough hole to crawl out of. A.J. Burnett avoided that disaster by pitching the Yankees to a 3-1 victory. Mark Teixeira and Hideki Matsui provided the offense with a pair of solo blasts. Quick ‘Cap: The Phillies took the early lead once ...

Tom Tango was nice enough to let me take part in The Book Blog’s World Series Game 2 chat this evening, where we discussed such important matters as bullpen management, if a T-Rex could be an effective pitcher, and the use of personal catchers. Also, whether Kirk or Picard would be the ...

World Series Game 2: Idiot Wind

Thu, 29 Oct 2009 22:00:00 +0000

Here's a new one guys, Joe Girardi is driving us insane before the game even starts! When Francisco Cervelli was dropped from the World Series roster, I said that we could "almost certainly infer" that Jorge Posada would be catching A.J. Burnett in Game 2. Earlier today I threw out the option of ...
