100 Games Down, A Long Way to Go
Posted on 26 Jul 2011 by Stephanie Geosits.
The Yankees sit at an even .600 after drubbing the Mariners in game 100. It's respectable, sure, but it's still not good enough for first place, since the Red Sox have a 2-game lead in the AL East. The Bombers have had some great moments, like Derek Jeter entering the 3,000 hit club on a home run in an absolutely perfect day for him. They've also had some disasters – injury-related and in...

Baseball’s Midseason Awards
Posted on 27 Jun 2011 by Michael Waterloo.
It seems like just yesterday I was typing up my preseason predictions for the upcoming baseball season. It's hard to believe that we are already at the halfway point. Who says that the baseball season is too long? As per usual with baseball, this season is full of unpredictability and surprises. We've seen two no-hitters within one week to make this the year of the pitcher 2.0, a home ...

Humber, Sox Feel Good for One Night
Posted on 26 Apr 2011 by Shaun Balmer.
For Ozzie Guillen, starting a 4 game series in the City That Never Sleeps must feel only fitting assuming he had not been able to sleep much with the way his team had been playing the previous 11 games. My bet is Guillen slept much better last night thanks in large part to Phil Humber and Sergio Santos. Humber took a no-hitter into the 7th inning before giving up a single to Alex Rodriguez by...

Evil Empire Invades Weakend ‘Nation’
Posted on 8 Apr 2011 by Stephanie Geosits.
You almost feel sorry for them – those die-hard Sox fans who were intent on recapturing post-season glory. All the smack talk during the off-season about how they were going to ride pitching excellence all the way until October. And here they sit at 0-6, off to their worst start since 1945. Sigh… Meanwhile, back at the Death Star in the 10451, the Yankees have played well enough to ...

Not Enough Power to Sweep
Posted on 4 Apr 2011 by Stephanie Geosits.
The Yankees came out of the gate with bats on fire and took two of three from Detroit. Mark Teixeira had three dingers in the three games, and Jorge Posada homered twice yesterday in powering the Bombers' offense to score 23 runs in the first series of the season. Tex has seven RBI to boot. CC Sabathia had a decent opening day start, but Joba got the win in relief as the Yankees rallied again...

2011 Red Sox Season Preview: They May Be The Best Team “On Paper” But They Still Have To Play The Game
Posted on 1 Apr 2011 by "Baseball Brenda" Sepanek.
It's been a brutal winter here in New England (it is snowing right now), but the sure way to get me out of hibernation is the Boston Red Sox. In fact the only good thing about this winter was the Red Sox off season. Unless you were living in a cave, you know the Red Sox won the off season war. Their blockbuster moves put them in the driver's seat of the entire league. They made two monster deal...

Bombers Bummed
Posted on 25 Oct 2010 by Stephanie Geosits.
The Yankees saw their dreams of a repeat World Championship go down the tubes on Friday thanks to poor pitching and a sputtering offense, and some would add, micromanagement by Joe Girardi. Texas playing like a team on fire didn't help, either. Today the Bombers announced that pitching coach Dave Eiland was let go. The claim was that it had nothing to do with the post-season performance, and sp...

Rangers Take stranglehold in Series
Posted on 20 Oct 2010 by George Kouvalis.
Most people, including myself, would have had this series being 3-1 the other way if you had asked us before the series had started who would be winning. The Texas Rangers used their bats and solid starting pitching, again, to hammer the Yankees 10-3 in game 4 of the ALCS in the Bronx. For the first time since game 1, the Yankees finally had a lead in a game and more importantly did not all...

Big Man Ready to Duel in Arlington
Posted on 15 Oct 2010 by Stephanie Geosits.
There's no one bigger than CC Sabathia and the Yankees are hoping that he will be large and in charge Friday night in Texas in the ALCS opener. I don't want to say that they *need* this game, but they can surely use the win. The Rangers will have to bite the bullet and send C.J. Wilson to the mound to face the Bombers' big man, since the Rays took them to five games. Texas ace Cliff Lee will ta...

Original Yankees Driving the Team
Posted on 1 May 2010 by Stephanie Geosits.
Derek Jeter, Jorge Posada, Mariano Rivera, and Andy Pettitte have a lot of years in pinstripes among them. (Only Pettitte hasn't been a Yankee for his entire career when, as David Letterman put it, “He went to run a Dairy Queen for a few years”). Certainly their seasoned outlooks on the game help immeasurably in the Yankees' clubhouse, but lately on the field, they are playing bette...

Big Patience with Big Papi
Posted on 15 Apr 2010 by "Baseball Brenda" Sepanek.
It was only a matter of time before I addressed this topic. David Ortiz is struggling and struggling hard. It brings me great pain to write about someone who has been my favorite player since the Sox signed him in '03. I will never forget the night Ortiz became #1 in my book. Living in San Diego at the time, I drove up to Anaheim for the Red Sox series. It was the Sunday, April 27th, rubber mat...
