Yep it is nice to have contacts.

Was looking at Stubhub.com, and fuckers were raping you and that was for the no-alcohol zone.



Obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it.

The way the Jays are playing losing 5 straight and 12 of there last 16... I would say that is a definate possibility.

I have never seen Batting so atrocious.

True, it can go either way.

He actually hits lefties quite well.

It's one of those signings where he could really help this Yankee team or he'll be released in a month. There's no middle ground and only time will tell.

Yankees acquire Xavier Nady, Damaso Marte from Pirates


BY MARK FEINSAND
DAILY NEWS SPORTS WRITER
Friday, July 25th 2008, 8:33 PM
Cataffo/News The Yankees acquire Xavier Nady from the Pirates.


BOSTON - The Yankees didn't wait for next week's trade deadline to make their move, landing outfielder Xavier Nady and lefthanded reliever Damaso Marte on Friday night in a six-player deal with the Pirates.
In exchange for the two players, the Yankees sent righthanders Ross Ohlendorf and George Kontos, lefthander Phil Coke and outfielder Jose Tabata to the Pirates.

Pretty incredible trade for the Yankees considering they gave up nothing but a 20 year old long shot who's been injured all year.

The trade for Nady and Marte has a much better potential upside than the Sexson signing. I'm very surprised that Pittsburgh didn't hold out for more.

Now, who can they get to replace Ponson?

I see Joba is going to visit Dr Andrews tomorrow. Not good for the Yankees. Hopefully his shoulder is ok...Dr Andrews visits are usually bad news though.

Could the change from a relief pitcher to a starter affected him?
Who knows...

It could be just normal overuse.

Like you mention, he hasn't pitched this many innings in quite a while.

I think sox nailed it. He went from pitching an inning every few days to throwing 90-100 pitches fairly quickly. He throws very hard also which isn't helping matters.

I dunno... seems not right to me.

These guys are throwing practically everyday.

The clock, she is winding down. The Yankees have lost six of their last nine - not good - and 13 of 21.

Well it doesn't look to good the rest of the way....do you think Giraldi did a decent job this year despite all the injuries?

The Team over achieved as far as I am concerned... so yeah he did fine.

Did I hear correctly in that the Yankees might call up CARL PAVANO this week?

Mussina suprised me this year, I thought he was done. He's a big reason they are still in it.

The 2 kids were real disapointments....for now I hope.

He's too busy enjoying the money the Yanks threw at him.
He must be lazy.

The Yankees were a hit away from losing two of three at home this weekend.

Such is baseball.

Has the attitude changed in the papers with the two game winning streak to win the series this weekend?

No, the attitude hasn't changed.
I just hope they make the wild card this year.

They have about as much hope as the Jays.
