I just saw the best play of the season at third base and it was pulled off by Ronald Torreyes. He was lauded as a great find in the utility infielder role yesterday by somebody or other on the Yankees radio or TV network (Kenny and John are currently doing it again today.), but this play does make you wonder why he isn't in the lineup every day. Oh, wait, he's not signed to a long-term, gazillion-dollar contract...never mind.
Something went wrong with the type here, but it's Memorial Day weekend and I can't be bothered. Besides, we're a mediocre team, why seek perfection in blog posts? Cashman wouldn't care, neither would Hal.
There's an article in the Times today about marriage and taking a more realistic view thereof, since there is no such thing as a truly perfect match. It contains this line, which seems appropos for Yankees fans this year:
"Choosing whom to commit ourselves to is merely a case of identifying which particular variety of suffering we would most like to sacrifice ourselves for."

Ruben Amaro! Talk about a shortstop who couldn't hit the ball past the infield. He made Horace Clarke look like a slugger.
Haven't watched any of the last 5 games. I guess it wasn't just my love for playoff hockey keeping me away from the Bronx Bummers. I just don't care anymore, to quote the Goddess Grimes.
Had to figure what joe de pastry was referencing:

This site is becoming one of those cool places where people toss out cultural references and everybody knows what they're talking about except me.
Of course, I'm entirely willing to talk about the 1966 Yankees. Doesn't much cooler than that.
Goddess Grimes stumped me, too, Tom. After a quick listen, I will return to stumpedness.
The Yankees just need to re-tool. Except our hardware store is belly-up.
Modern paradox;
When you can't re-tool, how do you re-build? With not a brick or a 2x4 to be found?
Don't know how you figured it out, Tom. I didn't think anybody would bother trying. Saw her at Terminal 5 a few months ago. Pretty sure I was the oldest person [70 in October] there.
