mark tex. is coughing could he have what he does not know he has, has he had a chest x-ray.

Jack, Watching Soriano butcher a hard gotten lead is getting OLD! I heard that the Yanks have a chance to trade him. They should do so in a Heart Beat and and Use Hughes as a 7th inning releiver! The Yanks get rid of a heavy salary and a VERY INEFFECTIVE Pitcher. IT IS HARD TO BELEIVE that he was ever a closer!

Jack, I am a big fan of Francisco Cervelli, Is Girardi going to keep him or Go with Romaine as the back up to Russ Martin?

A grand slam by A Rod, Tex or Swish in Game 5 of the ALDS would have been great. But I digress.
Glad to hear Curtis is getting it done in Taiwan.

DEAR JACK;

I WAS A LUCKY ONE I SAW GREAT YANKEE BASEALL. UNBELIEVABLE AT TIMES. THOS TEAMS WOULD NOT ALLOW MEDIOCRITY TO STAND IN THE WAY OF VICTORY. PEOPLE WHO SAW IT COULD NOT BELIEVE WHAT HAPPENED. SOME THING WAS GOING TO HAPPEN AND WE WOULD CHEER FOR THE YANKEES WINNING ANOTHER WORLD SERIES BACK WHEN I WAS VERY YOUNG. INTO THE 90'S AND THEN WHAT HAPPENED WHEN THE YANKEES ARE SUPERSTARS. SUPERSTARS CARRY THE TEAM TO VICTORY. WHAT HAPPENED?

I AM 67 YEARS OLD AND HAVE BEEN A YANKEE FAN FOR 63 YEARS. I FIND THE YANKEE LOSING IN THE ALDS SHOWS LACK OF CARING AND STRENGHT OF CHARACTER. THIS STARTS AT THE TOP. BUT LET ME TALK ABOUT JOE GIRARDI. THE YANKEES WON 98 GAMES WITH A CERTAIN MIX O F PLAYERS AND LINE UPS. THIS HAS HAPPENED IN THE PAST. THEN THE PLAYERSAND LINE UPS CHANGE STEADFAST AND BY THE WAY NOT THE LINE UPS THAT WERE DIVERSE AND MADE WINNING HAPPEN.

THIS HAS HAPPEN IN THE PAST. LET US TALK ABOUT THE YANKEE LOST TO TIGERS WITH THE TIGER MANAGER HAD FIVE DIFFERENT LINE UPS FOR EACH GAME.

I WOULD SAY SINCE 2003 THE YANKEES STAARTED TO BUY SUPER STARS? IN THE PAST YANKEES WON PENNANTS AND WORLD SERIES UTILIZING BALL PLAYERS WHO WERE HUNGRY TO SHOW THE WORLD HOW GOOD THEY ARE. A REAL TEAM. HOW MANY YANKEE TEAMS WOULD BAT UNDER 200 WHEN PLAYOFF TIME HAPPEN. THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS THE TEAM OR MANY PLAYERS.

LET US LOOK AT THE PRESENT A ROD, SWISHER, RUSSELL MARTIN, TEISHERA, AYALA, WADE, SORIANO, AJ ALL QUESTIONNABLE MOT RELIABLE.

SECOND YEAR CC HAD IMPLODED IN THE ALCS. POSADA SHOWED HE KNOWS HOW TO STEP UP IN THE PLAY OFFS. NO NO CANO LOOKS LIKE HE DID NOT SHOWED UP IN THREE GAMES THE YANKEES LOST. JETER'S CLUTCH FIELDING AND HITTING WHAT HAPPENED IN THE THREE GAMES LOST. GARDNER GETTING BETTER.

SO MANY OPPORTUNITIES SINCE 2003. IN 2009 AROD MADE A CONTRIBUTION STILL WAS HITTING POOR. MATSUI AND JOHNNY DAMON SAVE THE YANKEES.

TOO MANY OPPORTUNITIES HAS SHOWN THAT ON THE BIG STAGE OF NY CERTAIN PLAYERS CANNOT HIT IN THE CLUTCH. PITCHERS ALSO HAVE PROBLEM.

GIRADI WITH HIS STATISTICS NEEDS TO REALIZE THAT NOT REALIZING THAT CHANGE IS GOOD.
WHY NOT PLAY DIFFERENT PLAYERS TO SHAKE UP THE LINE UP. A-ROD IS GOD.

YEAR AFTER YEAR WE FANS ENDURE THIS TYPE OF HITTING FROM MANY OF THE POST SEASON MELT DOWNS. NO CHANGES HAPPEN WHY. STATISTICS CAN TELLYOU MAYBE ANDRUW JONES FOR SWISHER AT LEAST ONE GAME. NUNEZ PLAY EACH GAME AT DIFFERENT POSITIONS. BATTING ORDER GARDNER, JETER, GRADENSEN, CANO, TEISCHERA, AA-ROD, JONES, MONTERO,NUNEZ.
WHERE IS CRUZ?

OR MIX AND MATCH DURING THE GAME AT THE START WHAT EVER. SOME INNOVATION. THE PAST HAD SIMILAR ISSUE.

THIS YEAR IS AN EXAMPLE A-ROD NEEDS TO BAT FOURTH ALL THE TIME. DID HE ALWAYS EARN THIS ....NO. WHEN PLAYERS HAVE ISSUES THEY WILL PLAY THROUGH IT. JOE GIRARDI'S FAVORITE LINE. WHAT ABOUT POSADAAND OTHERS? THIS IS NOT TRUE WHEN IT IS EFFECTING THE TEAM.

REALIZE THIS HAS REALLY HAPENED SINCE 2003.

HOW MANY MORE GAMES CAN BE WON? I HAVE WATCHED THIS LACK OF INNOVATION FROM WINNING GAMES WHEN YOU CAN. IF THERE IS A NEED FOR A REST DO NOT LET IT EFFECT A GAME. A-ROD AND SOME OTHERS ARE LOSERS IN THE POST SEASONS. THIS IS A SHAME TO ALLOW THIS TO HAPPEN.

JACK I KNOW THAT IT IS VERY DIFFICULT FOR YOU TO CALL IT LIKE IT IS. ON THE RADIO JOHN STERLING IS MORE FORTH RIGHT.

LET WE CALL PLAYERS AND MANAGERS OUT .

FOR SHAME ON US.

HOW MANY WRONG DECISIONS ARE MADE THAT LOSE GAMES FOR THE MOST CONVOLUTED REASON.

MY FAVORITE LINE IS THE GUYS ARE WORKING REAL HARD. I BELIEVE IN THEM. IF THIS RHETORIC IS TRUE AND INTELLECT CANNOT UNDERSTAND THAT YOU CAN THINK NOT LIKE A ROBOT. WE ARE FOOLING OURSELVES.

I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT THIS IS BASEBALL THE FAVORITE QUOTE OF JOE GIRARDI. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE.

MAYBE A FEW CHANGES WILL HAPPEN, THIS TEAM IS OLD. LET THE NEW GUYS PLAY.

GET PITCHING....NOT A SURPRISE.

AT THE END OF THE YEAR CC FELL APART. AJ PITCHED WELL BUT WHY ACCEPT HIS STARTS FOR THE YEAR.

THE BETTER TEAM WINS ALWAYS,

IN THIS CASE THE BETTER MANAGER WON.

THERE IS SO MUCH TO REALIZE WHEN YOU ARE A YANKEE FAN.

THE MANAGER, GM AND ORGANIZATION HAS LOST THE WAY TO WIN WORLD SERIES.

SO CLOSE BUT YET SO FAR.....WHY.
