    Brett Favre needs to call Jeter and talk him out of retirement.

    They just seem to find ways to lose.

    I saw what BB REF has but on this list they showed on the screen there was no Cap Anson & they had Wagner at 3,430 instead of 3,420. that's what threw me off.

    Actually, Derek talked Brett into pitching next year in the Bronx, while Derek does Wrangler commercials....!

    On another note, did anyone see Joba's bomb HR he hung to J. Freese Yesterday?

    Joba has a 1-4 record, a 2.70 ERA, (which I'd say is good for a Starting Pitcher, but should be considerably lower for a great Reliever, which Joba is NOT)....43.1 IP, given up 35 Hits, 42 K's, a 1.131 WHIP....now 3 HR's he's given up, I know 2 of those HR's were game winners, not sure about his 1st.

    Came in relief in the 8th yesterday vs. Halos, and hung a non-breaking slider over the heart of the plate to Freese, and that folks was the game changer. The score tied 1-1, and Freese made Joba look, like he was thrown out of NY....good effing riddance....!
    (I wanted to see Joba become a top shelf Closer in NY, and those hopes were dashed, as ya'll know to well)....

    Sad, cuz I enjoyed Joba when he was a Corn Husker....! Sad, he never caught on with the Yanx either way, as a SP or RP....dazed and confused.....? He looks like it...!

    Plus he looks like he's impersonating a Yeti, a Silver Back, Baboon, or simply a wannabe ZZ Top Member, or Jeremiah Johnson....Shave that fugly thing Joba......

    Joba has NOT caught on and maybe never will.

    You mentioned one of my favorite movies Jeremiah Johnson (Robert Redford / Will Geer). And yes Joba looks ridiculous.
