The Man from Mensa

Nobody out-thinks Mike Mussina. And for any Yankee fan out there who secretly hoped Toronto will beat us 33-2 last night, thereby ending Moose's chance to implode in Game III of the playoffs, well, forgetaboutit.

Last night, he came back, unveiling his new "out" strategy: the line-drive doubleplay.

Bet the house on Game III, folks. You'll never get a better shot on a 10-run spread.

But hey, was there ever a smarter Yankee than the Man from Stamford? Last night, following his masterpiece 5.2 inning outing, Moose gurgled some Bartlett's...

“We’ve got to keep winning ballgames.”

"There has to be a reason I got those ground balls today because I’m not a ground-ball pitcher.

“We can’t afford to send somebody out there who’s going to give up six or seven runs in the first three innings.”

Come October, the Yankees won't even have to heat the locker room. The warmth from Moose's brain should be all they need.

Is Moose's brain juicing?

I hate the fact that you are right on.

game 3, we'll be behind by 8 in the second inning and Kei Igawa will be pitching in relief.

This guy looks a little too much like Alphonso, if you ask me.
