    Maybe you can bring the team some good luck...Lily tried but she may have lost her mojo.

    ...in addition to seeing the Yanx tonight, I'll also continue following one of the best young players in the game, Nomar Mazara.

    Good test for Yanks.
    Texas with best record, top 3 in scoring and fourth best team ERA.

    Here's something unusual:
    Texas has league best SP ERA and worst bullpen ERA.

    Yankees had best score a lot this evening, I have a feeling that Nova will completely shit the bed by the 6th inning. Was glad to see the Yankees are benching A-hole in certain situations but again moves too little too late, Release him.

    Nova with his 5 inn starts and +5.00 ERA sucks.
    Twice the Yanks took a lead and he gave it up the very next inn.
    Yanks should just dump him and call up some kid.
    I don't care if the kid gets roughed up- chances are fair he won't be any worse than Nova and he just might be better.

    And McCann runs like he has a refrigerator and the kitchen sink on his back. How can a big strong young man be so dam slow?
    This guy is a plus for the other team when he's on the bases.
    Besides having horrible instincts and getting only a single when he hits a ball off the RCF wall, it takes him 5 minutes to complete his first step!

    Good old "Strander" is now batting .309 with runners in scoring position.

    12 hits, all singles, poor start from Nova, never easy for this group.
