    Millions in salaries, cents in abilities, a real shame to see this group suit up in those classy pinstripe unis.

    After a 25 pitch 1st inning it looks like another outing of a Yankee pitcher that doesn't go beyond the 5th inning.

    While Tex just missed the problem is with runners on all these guys are trying to hit the ball out of the ballpark. Most of the time they just keep pounding the ball into the ground towards second.

    Gardner got on and swiped a bag, that's his job. But 0fer with RISP is getting tiresome.

    What do you know? An A-bomb by Arod makes it 2-1 Yankees.

    Yeah that is good to see. It would be nice to have one of these guys go AT LEAST 7 innings for a change.

    Ellsbury is starting to become a real adventure out in center field to start the season. There was no chance for him to catch that ball.
