Where is all the NL baseball everyone said Girardi would bring? They looks more laid back than they did with Torre running the show.
I have no idea, there have been many chances so far this year for Girardi to push buttons, and he hasn't. I think he might be afraid to make a mistake, which would be pathetic on his part.
And people forget, the Yankees led the AL in sac bunts last year, Torre did a lot more than most remember.
I agree with you greg, it does seem that girardi is tentative.
I hope that changes, and changes soon.
Geeez look at these Royals running, I wish the Yankees played this brand of baseball.
