The Yankees away game hotel pseudonyms were accidentally
leaked.
Yankees Rookie Pitcher Ian Kennedy is scheduled to
be married on October 6th. Which is a problem
if the Yankees hold onto the WildCard and make the playoffs.

Mike Mussina (left hamstring) and Carl Pavano (right
forearm) were placed on the disabled list. RHP Chris
Britton arrived this morning. The team will play a man short today. The team has not decided who will start on Tuesday but Class AA LHP ...
Marlins pitcher Scott Olsen has had a very
troublesome stage in his early career. * His forgot
teammate, Randy Messenger, gave him a black eye, in an off the field fight. * He almost got into an on-the-field fight with Miguel Cabrera, in which then manager, Joe Girardi, ended up grabbing him by his jersey and yelling at him. *Earlier this year, Olsen was fined an unspecified amount in ...
The voice on WFAN praised Mike Mussina for
the ability he's demonstrated to keep the 2008 Yankees
"in games." Gary Cohen commended Oliver Perez on a "quality start" against Cincinnati (he went six, gave up three runs, three hits and walked four). During that same Sunday game, a graphic scrolled across the screen which revealed that the New York Mets were averaging over three-and-a-half relief...
Putting together a fearsome lineup from the Marlins
and Rays would only cost you $21 million bucks,
about $7 million less than one A-Rod.
On my trip home from Yankee Stadium early
Saturday evening, I finished reading "Living on the Black,"
John Feinstein's latest sports book. Feinstein convinced Mike Mussina and Tom Glavine to open up to him about their 2007 seasons, and the...
Part two takes a more speculative look at
the future of the 300-game winner in the Majors.
There were no hard predictions in Part One of this two-part look at the future of the 300-game winner. Last week, I looked at the active 200-game winners. There are no guarantees in the game (not that there ever really were) at the moment.
It's a ranking of the Class of potential
HOF candidates to retire this year. And it's classier
than the classiest gin joint with the classiest dame singing the classiest song...it's great stuff!
Since the beginning of last August when Tom
Glavine became baseball’s 23rd 300-game winner, baseball writers and
bloggers have debated whether the 300-game winner had grown extinct with Glavine’s 300th win...I decided to take a closer look at the state of the 300-game winner in baseball.
A look at the difference a year makes
in the career of one of the most successful
active pitchers. Ask any pitcher. Every one of them, from high school to the "show" will tell you there exists a prevailing axiom that defines greatness. For any five starts, a pitcher is bound to have one start where he has absolutely nothing: it's impossible to locate the fastball, the ...
Remember when you were in Little League, and
you got to have ice cream if you won?
That's what it's like around the Yankees these days. The Yankees went on a health kick when Joe Girardi was named manager, prohibiting ice cream from the players’ ...
For those of you living under a rock,
Tom Glavine made history last night by winning his
300th game. He is only the 23rd pitcher to do it and 5th southpaw. Does anyone else playing have a shot at winning 300? It's going to take a very young guy with a track record and very good durability. Glavine has not been put on the disabled list once in his entire 21 year career. Reaching 300 is ...
Screaming Sports' Drew Thibodeau tries his hand at
MLB Buy 'n Sell and runs down a short
list of players you should be buying or selling. Jake Peavy? Believe it or not, it's time to sell. Mike Mussina? Grab him while he's hot!
This week’s most recommended Waiver Wire pickups from
FFToolbox, The Hardball Times, Yahoo! Sports, and CBS Sports.
It looks like the Opening Day pitcher for
the Yankees could be the Rajah of Rehab himself,
Carl Anthony Pavano. Mike Mussina pitched today and will start again on Thursday. Joe Torre just said they would not start him on April 2 on three ...
I was going to write about the six
most overpaid players in the big leagues this year
but then I realized I could easily write about five grossly overpaid players on the Yankees alone.
Two writers debate pro-Hank and anti-Hanke on the
Joba/starting issue.
What baseball fan doesn’t feel me on this
one? Every team has ‘em — opposing players who
have seemingly made their livings, earning phat contracts at the hands of their favorite clubs. With that in mind it is time to examine a starting line-up of current players who have made the Twins look like little leaguers over the years. They beat, bash and build stats that would make the Babe blush.
In his first four starts of the season,
Mussina was 1-3 with a 5.75 ERA, 3.1 K/9
and 5 home runs allowed. In his last 10 starts, he’s 8-1 with a 3.11 ERA, 5.7 K/9 and 5 home runs allowed. Is there a hotter pitcher in the American League right now? No. Is there an American League pitcher more deserving to start the All-Star Game? Probably not.
