We Will Miss You 'Stache...
The Bronx Stop: A Yankees Blog —
Pete Abraham just got word that Jason Giambi has shaved his famous 'stache. My friends, I have some sad news. The ’stache is no more. Sources have told the LoHud Yankees Blog that Jason Giambi has shaved his mustache. The Big G clearly needed to do something given that he has four extra-base hits and a .205 batting average since July 1. I still think that the 'Stache's power was drained on Mustache Night at the stadium...there just wasn't enough to go around... ...

... Is 7-3 reaching? Should we be hoping for 5-5? Probably, but that's not good enough. The Yanks have put themselves in a position where they can't afford to play .500 ball for 20% of their remaining games, especially when Boston plays 6 of their 10 games against the Royals and Rangers and the Rays get to beat up on Cleveland, Seattle and Oakland. The Yanks may just have to go 7-3 on this trip to keep pace with the two teams ahead of them in the East. In other news, the stache is dead, long live the stache.
