    Yes I do love Old-Timer's Day. But I'm no fan of Wilson Betemit, sadly Joe Girardi is.

  9. Greg CohenAugust 2, 2008 at 4:17 PM

    He did the Angels lineup for Fox, and he did it in a Mike Tyson voice, and he painted a tatoo on his face like Tyson's, but it just wasn't funny at all.

    Abreu is the worst outfielder I've ever seen. How does that ball fall in?

    It's really amazing how bad he is. I can't wait till next year when he's gone.

    OMG, what the heck was with that turn? A-Rod couldn't get the ball out of his glove, and what the fuck was that throw to Giambi by Betemit?

    God this team fucking sucks. GAME OVER.

    Cano has to suck it up and go out there. Just because your hurt doesnt mean you cant play. Jeter always has something wrong with him, but he still plays basically everyday. I'd rather have a 75% Cano than a healthy Betemit. Heck Id rather have a 50% healthy Cano.

  17. Greg CohenAugust 2, 2008 at 4:31 PM

    I agree, but the sad fact is that most players today are for lack of a better word, pussies. They can't handle what old school players could. That's one of the great things about Jeter, he's a throwback. He doesn't make excuses and he plays through pain.

  18. Greg CohenAugust 2, 2008 at 4:31 PM

    Oh, and A-Rod took way too long to get that ball to Betemit, which didn't help either.

    yeah it was a bad play by all 3 of them. Giambi should have picked it, Betemit just looked unathletic, terrible throw, and Arod took a while, with not much on the throw.

    I'm still pissed about yesterday, we should be split 1-1 now. O well, I'd rather save the wins vs. the Angels until the playoffs. Like Cleveland last year vs. us.

    yep, we all knew that was coming. # 17!

    Number 17 for Captain Double Play.

    Really, he should just bunt when there's a runner on first with less than 2 out, IN EVERY SITUATION.

    All the defensive disasters are making up for their mistakes. Nice!

    Next it will be Giambi's turn.

    Mussina has been outstanding. He's definitly a contender for Cy Young.
