Is the curtain falling on Ma and Pa Pinstripe? Will next season be John Sterling and Suzyn Waldman's last in the Yankees radio booth?Right now their future is up in the air. The Yankees contract with WCBS-AM, worth about $12 million per year, expires at the end of the 2011 season, so do Sterling and Waldman's pacts. Sterling has been the radio voice of the Yankees since 1989. Waldman joined him in 2005.There has yet to be any serious negotiations between the Yankees and WCBS. The job status of Ma and Pa cannot be resolved until a new radio-rights deal is cut. Industry moles say other outlets have chatted informally with Bombers brass. These potential suitors are looking to get a sense of which direction the club wants to go with its radio rights.

Until now, it has never occurred to me that the integrity of this blog is contingent on John Sterlings employment with the Yankees. What will become of it when John steps down?
A. Sayed,
If John goes, not having a blog will be the least of our worries.
Can we turn this into a travel or cooking blog after they leave? No offseason, lots to talk about!
I wonder if John would continue his mannerisms with another team.
Sterling used to do Braves games
