    How exactly is that stopping Tex and McCann from being terrible at the plate?

    Yeah getting in Tex's face is all that standing between him and .290 again.

    Jeter has been consistent all season long & currently has the 2nd highest BA on the team. I think most would agree that he's pretty much exceeded what most expected of him. Jeter is DEFINTELY not one of the problems on this team. And he's batting right where he should be 2nd.

    mess u r much smarter then this, if tex went the other way a few times his BA would rise 20 pts in 2 weeks guaranteed, and if you are not satified you get your money back. just pay shipping and handling!

    This crap you see is what Tex has turned into. Two more big money years of a guy breaking down and disgracing himself.

    This I agree with. And this IS on Girardi & his staff. You don't ASK Teixeira if he can go the other way from time to time , you TELL him to go the other way. And then you make sure that Long spends the necessary time with him showing him how to do it

    He has become strictly a pull hitter either by his own design or because physically he cannot go the other way anymore. The guy was once a .300 hitter so it's not like he forgot.

    Vic with all due respect, I'm not buying it, I don't think its a case of CANNOT, I think its more a case of WON'T.

    I think it's a case of a broken down former juicer.

    That may also play a part.

    And as we speak he comes through with an RBI single. 3-1.

    Was just listening to the radio, heard "With the 1 engine out, how far can the 2nd engine get us"? - "to the crash site"....!

    The type of year we've had to endure, yet, I'm not giving up til a entire chorus of Fat Ladies sing in French....backwards.......

    Nothing official yet on the injury but with the way things have done with this team injury wise I would be shocked if it's nothing.
