Bleh!


What an ugly game. And what an ugly attempt to be a Nomaas.org artist too.

Weekly Update 5/4

Record: 17-16 (4th)
Last 7: 4-3
Team Avg: .258 (12th)
Team ERA: 4.36 (19th)

It seems the Yankees can't find a way to stay above the .500 mark. After losing three straight from the Detroit Tigers, and then winning three from the Seattle Mariners, it is clear that the baseball gods are yo-yoing with the Yankees.

Who's Hot:

Johnny Damon
In his last ten games, Damon went 14 for 37, or batted .378. He has scored 9 runs including five this past weekend and smacked an upper deck home run in Saturday's contest securing the win.

Mike Mussina

Winning three games in a row and bring his record above .500 for the first time this season. After an inconsistent 2007 season, Mussina has already shown a change of pace. He does give up a lot of hits, and occasionally gets into trouble, however, as the verteran pitcher he is, he has been able to get out of innings with little or no damage.

Who's Cold:

Robinson Cano
Only four combined hits since last Sunday equaling a poor .160 average. The only upside to this is that two of those hits have been home runs.

Jason Giambi
A miserable .055 batting average for the past week. He has been hitting the ball solid, unfortunately he hits into the shift and it becomes difficult to reach base.

Ian Kennedy
After suffering yet another bad outing, Kennedy was optioned to AAA Scranton/Wilkes-Barre to work on his mechanics.

Down for the count:

Alex Rodriguez
15-day DL for a strained right quad

Jorge Posada
After suffering through pain through out the season, the Yankees finally placed Posada on the 15-day DL for a strained right shoulder

Phil Hughes
Highly doubtful this is a legitimate injury. First reports of a strained oblique muscle, and now its hairline fractures in his lower ribs. My opinion, no injury, just taken out of the line up for a mental vacation.

Well Now

The Yankees STILL have the best post all-star game record even after a horrible 16-0 loss to the Tigers who now trail one game behind New York in the wild card standings.
Many questions are popping up with one being will Mike Mussina still remain in the starting rotation.
Mussina, from what I have seen, has only had two games in which he has had a successful outing, but his last three mirror Kei Igawa.
Mussina claims that if there is a pitcher in the Yankees organization that is better than him, he will remain a starter.
Sorry to burst your ego there, but Ian Kennedy may replace you and possibly even bring back Igawa, both as of now are better than you.
I wouldn't be surprised if they bring Ron Guidry out of retirement as an emergency sub.

The other question is will the Yankees make the playoffs.
Forget about the AL East, the run is over. The Wild Card slot is still up for grabs as the Yanks trail the Mariners by to games and they will play each other next week.
The Yankees begin a three-game series against the Red Sox tonight at home with Andy Pettitte taking the hill. This is a must win sweep for the Yankees to gain needed ground in the East, but a two-of-three will only give them one game.
September is a relatively quiet month with the exception of a series with Seattle and Boston one last time.
For the rest of the month the Yankees deal with Toronto, Tampa, and Baltimore.

This is now a sprint for the finish.
