Big win for the Yanks today, following last night’s loss. Darrell Rasner had another... [more]
What type of moves should the Yankees make in the off-season? First off, they will have to decide what to about a GM (either re-sign Cashman, or don't). Additionally, they need to think about what free-agents they will pursue. Sabathia is a free-agent to be. AJ Burnett has an option to opt-out of his contract with Toronto, and M... [more]
That two-run shot into the Tigers bullpen would give the Sox a 5-1 lead; enough to take the final game and the series and prove yet again what an asset the first baseman is to this team. Youkilis has been amazing this series. Over the four games he got five hi... [more]
Why does All-Star balloting begin before the first month of baseball is over? The All-Star Game is not until the third week of July, so what reason is there to let fans vote when the only stats they can see represent well under a third of the season’s pre-All-Star-break half?&n... [more]
Red Sox should take out Tavarez for good posted by Bill Koch on 05/09/2008
I should have known that Wednesday night's debacle in Detroit was coming just by listening to Terry Francona's weekly radio appearance on WEEI.This Manager happened to let it slip to Dale and Holley that he needed to get Julian Tavarez into a game sometime soon. Apparently, running long relievers out to get so... [more]
Buchholz only went four innings. Tavarez would only last one. Even Papelbon couldn't get out of the 9th without racking up his first blown save and loss of the season.God it was awful. I hate the yo-yo. Every time you're up, within a matter of minutes you're down again. It's torture ... [more]
Great win for the Yanks today… A lot of good signs came out of this one…From Johnny Damon’s home run and key 2-out rbi double to Jason Giambi’s big fly in the 4th and Robinson Cano and Wilson Betemit going back-to-back in the 7th, the offense looked good for the first time in this series.... [more]
Unfortunately this is not the first time the Yankees are trying to avoid a sweep during this home stand. With their big win yesterday it is fair to say that the Tigers may have turned things around for good this time and are waiting with baited breath for the Yanks...that is why, to me, today is a must win. Yes it... [more]
Papi and Manny are finally working together. Their one, two punch in the seventh helped the Sox score their third shutout of the season and put them 3.5 games over their closest competitors, the Tampa Bay Rays. Because of Tim Wakefield's amazing outing last night, the Sox were already u... [more]
Kei Igawa will start against the Tigers on Friday and Darrell Rasner will start Saturday...not even going to waste my time typing about what I think Igawa will do against a lineup like Detroit has... Side note, Ian Kennedy will start tonight in AAA...Let's hope he fixes whatever the heck is wrong...... [more]
So the Yankees open a 3-game set against the Indians tonight at the Stadium. Andy Pettitte goes for the Yanks against Fausto Carmona.Carmona (3-1, 2.60 ERA) has pitched well to start the year for the Tribe, although he has walked twice as many batters has he has struck out. Overall, the Indians... [more]
Here's my first installment of the UTROTD! Let me first say that this IS NOT A REAL TRADE and is COMPLETELY UNSUBSTANTIATED.The Detroit Tigers trade UTIL Brandon Inge to the Houston Astros for SP Felipe Paulino and SP Bud NorrisWhy it makes sense for the Tigers:At this point in time, Inge is turning into a... [more]
Well we were officially swept tonight…Started out great and slowly got worse. Once again, Ian Kennedy failed to deliver, lasting only 4.2 innings. Some will call that an improvement, yeah for a AAA... [more]
Well it's official...The Yankees have more injuries than Roger Clemens has girlfriends (or do they?) Phil Hughes is gone until at least July and the Yanks' injury troubles continue to mount.Nonetheless, they have actually still have enough players to field a team tonight, as they try to avoid a swee...

Hello everyone, My name is Adam Rosario, and this is my first blog post. I'm a 24 year old from Brooklyn and a huge New York sports fan. I root for just about all the NY teams, except for the Islanders, and although I'm mostly a Yankees and Giants fan, I root for the Mets and Jets, too when they play oth... [more]

Boston Red Sox starter Curt Schilling played long toss before Thursday's game against the Detroit Tigers, continuing his rehabilitation from a shoulder injury.Red Sox manager Terry Francona said that the session went well, although progress hasn't been as quick as the 41-year-old pitcher would like."He wants to feel like he's 24 again, and I don't know how likely that's ever going to be," Francona said.
