As an avid baseball fan who reads everything I can find the time for, on a daily basis you’ll come across things you disagree with, sometimes strongly. That’s all fair game, and I’ve long held that some of us like debating sports as much as we like the games themselves. But every once in a [...]
Whenever the Yankees go on a losing streak, you begin to hear a common refrain. “They’re old”. These stories usually focus on the ‘Core 4′ players and maybe a few of the aging bench players they bring in annually. But is this criticism accurate, especially in comparison to most MLB teams? Further, is it [...]
In the oddest blog post I’ve seen in a while, Joel Sherman says that Phil Hughes came to camp too fat, but then lost too much weight, but then had no work ethic, and that’s why he stinks. Or something:
I talked to a person with strong ties to the Yankees who threw [...]
Here’s the scenario. Girardi gets a knock-out offer from the Cubs. One that the Yanks could match, but choose to pass on. Girardi, despite his loyalty to the Yanks, feels the tug of going home and is enticed by the opportunity to bring the Windy City it’s first World Series championship in [...]
I’ve been holding a lot of this back, so if this seems like nit picking, I’m sorry. These feelings on the Yankees’ behemoth of a regional sports network have been welling up inside me since the beginning of the season.

Shockingly enough, John Harper thinks the Yankees should’ve retained Johnny Damon. His title puts at least some of the blame on Damon, rightfully, but he of course ends up right in the same pitfalls as usual. Let’s cut this bad boy up (emphasis on the bad).
Still, you had to be blind not to [...]
By now you’ve probably heard of Tim McCarver’s comments on the FOX Saturday broadcast, where he compared the Yankee front office to the Nazi and Communist regimes. If not, here it is again (video):
You remember some of those despotic leaders in World War II, primarily in Russia [...]
Tim Smith of the New York Daily News doesn’t get it.
If the reader knows anything about baseball, this title insults him or her immediately. Even those with a cursory knowledge of the game know that innings limits generally apply to young pitchers just breaking into the Majors. This is obviously not the case [...]
Since Dave Eiland was the reason for pitchers NOT pitching well in his absence, do we now get to BLAME him for bad outings now that he’s back?
Fair’s fair, you know.
One silly media narrative that I have always hated is the idea that inconsistent athletes struggle due to some sort of mental deficiency rather than a simple lack of talent. The issue came up this morning, when Joel Sherman stated the following in a column:
It was craft vs. daft. Moyer, the pitcher with [...]
