Yanks Hit 3 Grand Slams

[TUM301]

Sox over the Brewers in 6. Gonzo MVP. he has a great shot at leading the majors in Avg And RBI and will only get better. On a side note which team would you rather be, the Sox with fatass contracts for Lackey and Crawford or New York saddled with A J Burdett and Arod ?

Burnett needs to be pulled from the rotation. He's a liability right now.

It is sad how money plays a huge role in these decisions. But on the other side of the coin:

Garica is on the DL
Colon is wearing down big time
Hughes has shown signs, but his last start was garbage and is still a big question mark.

Besides CC (who can't seem to beat the Sox) and Nova...we are in a bit of trouble. Plus we are putting an awful lot of pressure on Nova to be the #2 as a rookie.

Lackey and Burnett kind of cancel each other out. I wonder which out of the two will be better in October. I am a life-long Yankee fan, but I think Crawford will be fine. I don't know if he will live up to his contract, but he will probably have close to a Crawford like year next year. If you take away his injury and his first two months of the season, his stats aren't that bad at all.

As for A-Rod, I think his future with the Yanks is going to be at DH. I am hoping that the Yanks tirelessly workout Nunez at 3B in the offseason. He is going to be a very good offensive player, and has shown flashes defensively, but is still a long ways away from being an everyday player because of his poor defense. I think if A-Rod is allowed to DH, there will be less wear and tear and he will put up some huge numbers the next 2-3 years.
