Fight! Fight! Fight!

Shelly Duncan spikes Iwamura! Jonny Gomes plow into Duncan! It’s a bench-clearing brawl in a Spring Training game! Shelly Duncan will take on every one of you muhfuhs.

This says good things to me.
One, the Yanks are full of piss and vinegar and Shelly Duncan is a rockin’ dude. Two, Girardi stands up for his players. […]

Making the rounds this evening is news that Billy Crystal, director of the vastly underrated 61* and lifetime Yankee fan (despite the troubling presence of a Mets cap in the City Slickers movies), has signed a one-day minor league deal with the Yankees to play in a spring training game. Ostensibly, this means he’ll retire […]

It is time.
We have identified the next target.
Longtime readers will remember our successful takedown of Joe Thiesmann. Now J-Bla and myself are turning our unholy powers, and our Baseball Cancer, upon Susyn Waldman. Herein, a list of her crimes:

When I Google Image Searched her name who was in the first page of the results but […]

Good news for baseball cancer sufferers in New York City: Brian Cashman pulled the rug out from under conditioning coach Marty Miller. Cashman suffered a hamstring injury during his follow-through; Miller bruised his ass as the door hit him on the way out. Cashman isn’t expected to miss any time at the office, and Miller […]

Yankees @ Twins on FSN. It’s 3-0 Yanks, and Johnny Damon is up:
(Paraphrased) With a man on first and second, Damon should be bunting here. Hup, looks like Torre is going to let him swing away. I guess he’s relying on his speed since he doesn’t hit into a lot of double plays, but Damon’s […]

Pour One out for Bernie

Here’s the baseball story I completely missed yesterday: Bernie wasn’t in uniform yesterday for the Yanks’ opening day. Word is he called Torre, Jeter and Posada, really the only remnants of the old guard from the ’90s, to wish them luck. There just wasn’t room on the roster for an aging horse who hits like […]

Well, P-Day has come and gone, and although Carl Pavano’s got a hell of a box score to look at, he didn’t pitch nearly as bad as the line might suggest. He had three errors behind him (which puts the Yanks on par to commit 486 on the year; seems about right), and except for […]
