    thanks, I really never left, unfortunately I haven't followed the Yankees much the past couple of years. Friday night was the first game I watched all year, and will be going to another game this Wed (won free tickets from Buffalo Wild Wings). With me watching Jets football and Rangers hockey as much as I do my wife wants to watch some non sports sometimes too lol

    ...as a fan, this year has been strangely surreal because now with Jeter gone, for the first time in a very long time, there's not one player on this team that really serves as 'the face of the franchise".

    And speaking of Jeter they really thought with him gone & having the new infield of Headley, Gregorius & Drew that they would have a solid defense, and here they are 3rd in the league in errors.

    Great job, Al. I like your 'excited' call.

    Now, if you can only call some Ranger
    playoff goals next year. Yeah.

    No Rick, please, totally relevant ongoing situation regarding the Yanks ability to hit HRs and their mediocre BA w/risp as it pertains to their W-L records and, and I was replying to a post addressing the subject......
    I do apologize if I offended anyone by including dramatic ironic factors in the equation.....and yes, also some legitimate sarcasm to inject some humor trying to help express my opinion (and point) on the matter.

    But rest easy, I take my fair share of arrows in the butt.
    It's all good.......it's only BASEBALL talk.

    My main point, and I think THE main point - imo - concerning the Yanks poor ability to win games when NOT hitting HRs is primarily the result of not getting enough well pitched games into the later innings from their SP.

    Do I want the Yanks to hit better w/risp? Absolutely.....of course.
    But they are what they are....and they need their SP to step up in the 2nd half.
