Some Quick Yankees Notes
Here is some quick stuff to mention before the Yankees start playing their first game. Remember the old joke about Joe DiMaggio wanting part ownership of the club? That joke has sort of come to life as Kevin Kernan of the NY Post wants the Yankees to make Derek Jeter an owner. A miscalculation has forced the ...
Some Thoughts on the Fifth Starter Competition
Benjamin Kabak's typically strong post at RAB on Joba Chamberlain and the to-start-or-relieve conundrum, which addresses a John Harper piece at The New York Daily News, spurred some thinking about a couple aspects of the fifth-starter race. I think Kabak did a very good job analyzing that Harper's article didn't prove his own point--that the ...

Sporting an ERA below 2 for the sixth time in the last seven years, and for the ninth time in his incredible career, ...
Assessing the 2009 Yankees Rotation in Historical, Championship Perspective
Peter Menking has done a terrific job breaking down the current rotation, including today’s post on Joba Chamberlain, to provide readers with a good glimpse into what they may expect from a strong 2010 rotation. In turn, I figured a look back at last year’s championship staff would allow a worthwhile comparison between last ...

End of a Journey

Make no mistake: Yankee fans have it pretty good. The Yankees routinely field one of the best teams in baseball. They have the financial means to go after free agents, invest in the draft, and hire the best scouts. They have mystique that goes along with all the championships they have won (and we can ...
