Even if a new ownership led by Derek Jeter himself were to take over this team tomorrow, they would STILL be saddled with the contracts of Beltran, CC, A-Rod & Teixeira. Face it, the sad reality here is whether its under old or new ownership this team ain't doing dick for the next 2-3 years.
Wow, you guys seem very anxious to fulfill all of your off season dire predictions. Five games is five games, and we're not talking about 5 pivotal games in late September. The team HAS played shoddy ball on the field and if this continues along with the current rate of errors, allowing unearned runs and averaging 3.4 runs per game.....then I WILL SAY there's a good chance they'll lose 90-ish games and finish in the basement. But - I expect them to improve on those numbers, while hopefully holding their own in current categories such as having the 2nd best ERA within the division and tied (A.L) for 3rd in HRs. Hang in there guys, I realize ALL the other teams are also playing under the same conditions but I think the warmer weather, and playing together longer will benefit his crew and help them gel as a team.....with more RUNS/HRs on the way.......yes, of course if the usual suspects get their ABs....lol. Imho Have to admit, it is still VERY early, but 2-4 looks much better than 1-5. GO YANKS!
Shall I post a picture of the Grim Reaper as he accompanies a patient enterting the Dentist's office for a tooth extraction? Nah, I'll just deal with the boring written words of baseball talk! lol
I guess THIS part of my post (#22) you once again conveniently either forgot to read, did not read , or ignored.....par the course.
