Vazquez To The Yankees: Our Analysis
Ian: When the Red Sox improved their rotation last week, acquiring the services of arguably the best starting pitcher on the free agent market in John Lackey, Yankee fans fretted. Suddenly the Sox boasted a rotation brimming with three number-one starter types in Jon Lester, Josh Beckett, and Lackey. ...

Pitching Options
Now that the biggest fish in the pitching ocean has been signed (John Lackey), it is time for the Yankees to look at their own pitching depth to see if there is a move they should make for their own rotation. I am of the belief that you should never overreact to what other teams do. The Yankees...

ESPN’s Rumor Central highlights the latest news on Roy Halladay:
At the just-concluded general managers meetings, Blue Jays GM Alex Anthopoulos likely heard plenty of opinions on what to do with Roy Halladay.

A Personal World Series Dedication
Vito came to the United States from Italy in 1903, eager to grasp the brass ring and all the benefits that came with this great country. He was brave, he was curious, and most of all full of the hope that a new life and opportunity would bring. He was my grandfather. “Pop” quickly fell in...

Looking Ahead: 2010 Starting Pitchers
We hear a lot nowadays about big market teams, middle market teams, little market teams…and of course, the Yankees. There are a lot of things these franchises have in common; a lot of things they don’t have in common. But one of the big things they do have in common is this: ...

Wrapping Up the World Series
It had all the makings of high drama.
Andy Pettitte, a homegrown pitcher, a man perennially on the verge of retirement, throwing on three days rest.
Pedro Martinez, a relic from another era when the Yankees seemed like they could do no wrong.
It felt like a game straight out of 1999, when the Yankees...

World Series Game 5 Thoughts
Random thoughts from my Kitchen Command Center while Chase Utley gives me the Fear:
◊ Not exactly a great start for Cliff Lee, but an even worse start for AJ Burnett. Of course, Burnett gave up four runs to start game five of the ALCS and settled down before the Yankees stormed back, only to lose...

World Series Game 3 Thoughts
Some thoughts on Game 3, compiled while watching the Giants clash with the Eagles in the first half of an epic Philadelphia/New York Sunday doubleheader:
- I’m thrilled for Nick Swisher, who, despite struggling horrendously throughout this postseason and taking some abuse in the media, continued...

World Series Game 1 Thoughts
Random thoughts on a game that doesn’t need much explanation:
◊ Last night’s game pretty much begins and ends with Cliff Lee. Sure, Chase Utley deserves props for hitting not one but two home runs against fellow lefty CC Sabathia. Lee was downright filthy. Lee threw 122 pitches across...

World Series Rotation and Roster Questions
Questions abound a day away from game one of the World Series.
Rob Neyer, responding to Dan Rosenheck the NY Times, who suggests Girardi keep his options open:
… I wonder if any manager in the history of ever has gone into a World Series with such flexibility.
No, I’m sure that many of them...

Thoughts on ALCS Game 6
Reflections on an evening I spent singing the Theme to New York, New York over and over while alone in my kitchen:
◊ Great game pitched by Andy Pettitte last night. It’s rare that you see Pettitte let out a yell or a fist pump but clearly, Andy was dialed in and on a mission.
It’s funny...

Stay Positive: This Year Is Different
These past three days have been torture. No question. For those of us that live and die with each Yankee victory or defeat, a crushing postseason loss followed by an off-day followed by a rainout followed by another day of waiting can seem cruel and unusual. I’ve found myself constantly plagued...

ALCS Game 5 Thoughts
Thoughts about the game while I try to stop my head from sadly shaking:
◊ Last night once again encapsulated AJ Burnett as a pitcher. Burnett came out in the bottom of the first and stunk up the joint, allowing four runs before an out was recorded. A long flyout and double play later, AJ gets out...

Micro Joe Girardi Strikes Again
Tempting as it was, I resisted the urge to scrawl a profanity-laden diatribe against Micro Joe Girardi following last night’s 5-4 loss to the Los Angeles California Angels of Anaheim California. My reasoning? One shouldn’t make rash decisions in the heat of battle.
If only Micro Joe had...

ALDS Game One Thoughts
Random thoughts after watching the Yankees win behind CC Sabathia, two years after losing to him and the Indians in the 2007 ALDS:
• Jorge Posada looked awful tonight. Two passed balls, one of which may have been a cross-up that he flat out missed and a 1 for 4 game at the plate. It’s not...
