Dear Editor:
The Yankees have been eliminated and gone into hibernation. Unfortunately Cano, Rodriguez, Granderson and Swisher were already there long before they were swept by Detroit. Let's face it, without Ibanez's heroics, the Yankees wouldn't have gotten by Baltimore. Along with occasional contributions, Teixeira, Suzuki, Martin, and decent pitching kept the Yankees in most games.
A-Rod was
absolutely useless while failing miserably to drive in runs when the opportunity
was there. It was either a strike out or hit into a double play. I shuddered
every time he came up with runners on base with one or no outs, hoping he would
strike out so as not to hit into a double play. Granderson gave Rodriguez a run
for the money to see who could strike out the most. Cano and Swisher were also
big failures.
The Yankees are going to have to find a few consistent
hitters over the winter. The old timers, Jeter and Ibanez, are not going to be
around much longer.
