He is let out of his acquarium to walk around the clubhouse, albeit very slowly. I mean, he's a turtle. But he beats the hare in the end.<br /><br />Toronto is crumbling, the Rays are in cruise control, Boston took a big hit when we swept them. <br /><br />The New York Streakies--with Bronxie--could well put together a crazy end of season into the postseason winning streak. Or they could collapse, at a snap of the fingers.<br /><br />You can't predict baseball.JMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09876016557456927299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3932285159851204335.post-53886347641124500952021-09-28T09:54:47.195-04:002021-09-28T09:54:47.195-04:00So they traded Junk for trash, don’t understand th...So they traded Junk for trash, don’t understand the point of that. Gallo better lead the team in home runs next season for what they gave up.<br /> On a side note, both Otto and Junk made the majors this year for teams they were traded to, I have to wonder how much they could’ve helped the Yankees bullpen for the stretch run as opposed to sending out Heinous and Krispe creamed.

So they gave up players, who in a few years, we'll be saying "why can't the Yankees get players like this" for a WC run? This has been the issue with this team for years, going back to Willie McGee & Fred McGriff. Trading young players for marginal vets to chase a playoff spot, not a championship, but a playoff spot.Celerino Sancheznoreply@blogger.com
