Sabathia Keeps Me Sober



As many of you know, I have a ritual every time CC Sabathia pitches.  I sit with a shot glass and a bottle of Canadian Club and have a shot for every scoreless inning CC pitches.

Today, I had to stretch the rules to get 4 shots.  That is not going to do it for me, folks.  That is like two highballs.

The Yankees did double their scoring output from last night, so I guess things are trending up.  Tomorrow, the "battle of the high end Japanese pitchers," should see us plate 4 runs, if my theory of geometric progression proves correct.

Our bullpen did great.  Carlos was off the charts great.  Castro had a fine day.  Pretty much everyone else sucked.  Romine showed that he is rarely on base, as he got caught in the rundown leading off second when Gardy spanked ( and I use this word advisedly ) a come-backer to the pitcher.  An amateurish base-running mistake.  If Sanchez were hitting above .050 in AAA, they might just send Romine back on the bus.

0-12 as a team today and yesterday with runners in scoring position.  A-Rod 0-5 with 3 K's ( today only.  He rested last night ).

Here is a thought:  Let's make Carlos the DH and put Judge in right field.  Add some youth, a lot of offense, and upgrade the defense all in one move.

Send A-Rod to Nashville ( is Bobby Meecham still there?).  Release him.  Show that the Yankees are not simply brain-dead.

Seriously, at some point the plug must be pulled on A-Rod as a $25 million a year guy.  He ain't gonna pull it.

He stays at the heart of our line-up, because everyone is afraid to face the truth, and act upon it.  Joe says it is early yet.  Yogi said, " it can get late early."

I need a drink.

  3. Why can't Girardi and Cashman acknowledge that he is not a no. 3 spot hitter any longer.

    He may even be more productive in the no. 6 or 7 spot. He's killing us.
