Are you seriously sitting here trying to figure out if you would bag if you were a female or something? Give me a break.

I never understood why dudes care if a chick is with a so-called "ugly" dude.
Lots of fat/skinny, ugly/disfigured, etc guys pull chicks.
Not every female is as superficial as you are Mr Tevez.

I dont think CC pitched all that great, 113 pitches in 6+...I want a little better next time. Gimme a Cliff Lee CG or somethin
My fav thing I took from the game is that the offense is still looking sharp, especially loved seeing Arod get 2 out RBIs on multiple occasions and Matsuidriving the ball to center. When this team plays feisty, they turn really dangerous.
Joba in the bullpen all playoffs is what I say. Just having him warmup next to Hughes makes my heart all warm and fuzzy.

Joe Buck yourself if any of you can tolerate him and that old bag McCarver (not a shot at you JRP don't go tipping over no cows
Got home pretty late. NYY Steak is the best steak I've ever had. Pretty pricey though. Wachovia paid for everything so I was straight. Waitresses upthere

yep im OK with Gaudin as the 4th starter...i mean at least he shuts down rightys like most left handed specialists do to leftys
prob will depend on how the series is shaping up, and how joba looks in a couple of relief appearances

Chad Gaudin will be our 4th starter.. I would definitly let him pitch in game 4 so we can have that filthy +%! pen.. only thing he would have to do and give us5 strong innings. Ace in the 6th, joba in the the 7th, hughes in the 8th and mo in the 9th to shut the door. BALLGAME

^likewise man.. starting joba would be a big mistake. He looks like himself again I'm not tryna take him out that pen man him and hughes will be thesickest 7th 8th inning bridge to mo.. only thing I want from chad is 5 innings 3 runs which I think he's very capable of. I'm also quite confident thatchad and our bullpen is better than any other teams 4 starter and their pen

[h2]Burnett: Molina start not my call[/h2]
Yankees right-hander A.J. Burnett insists he had nothing to do with Jose Molina starting at catcher in his Game 2 start Friday against the Twins.
That decision did not please regular starting catcher Jorge Posada, who on Tuesdaysaid: "I just hope we win that game. That's all I've got to say."
And Posada's tone and demeanor made it clear he was not happy.
Burnett, speaking with reporters in the Yankees' dugout before Wednesday's opening game of the American League Division Series, said the move wasmanager Joe Girardi's call, not his -- and that his relationship with Posada isfine.
Although Burnett pitched better down the stretch with Molina behind the plate, Molina is not nearly as productive a hitter as Posada.
"It was the manager's decision, I had no part in it," Burnett said. "I've thrown good to both [catchers]. My good games, I'mright. My bad games, it's not the catcher, it's me ... When I'm good, it doesn't matter which one is behind the plate."
If there's an issue between Posada and Burnett, it seems to go back to Aug. 22, when the Boston Red Sox roughed up Burnett for nine runs in five innings, including three home runs, in a 14-1rout.
After Burnett gave up a home run to David Ortiz in the fifth inning, he was caughton camera saying, "Why?" to himself. It was not initially clear if he was questioning himself or Posada, who caught that game.
Since then, Burnett has made eight starts, with Posada catching only one. With Molina catching, he was 3-1 with a 2.92 ERA in his final six starts.
"It's making me out to be the bad guy again," Burnett said Wednesday. "It comes down to Boston when I said, 'Why, why, why?' Butover my career, I've done that a handful of times. If you ask guys I've played with, I don't show guys up.
"And obviously Jorge's upset. He's a big part of this team. He's a leader on and off the field and hopefully his mind will be right to getin there and get a pinch hit when the time comes."
Posada started Game 1 against the Minnesota Twins, going 1 for 4 with a strikeout and two passed balls in the Yankees' 7-2 win.
He batted .285 with 22 home runs this season; Molina batted .217 with 30 hits in 138 at-bats.

Blackburn is gonna get blasted Friday.
Eh, I wouldn't be so sure. He did fairly well when he faced us in the regular season, he just had some control issues and lost a 1-0 leadearly on a 3-run Tex home run that his offense was unable to get back for him. We ended up having to go to extras that game and Blackburn has been pitchingpretty well of late.You guys aren't a little worried about tex goin 0-4 last night?
I'd be more worried about which Burnett is going to show up tomorrow.

Why be worried about Tex being 0-4 its baseball that happens he'll come through when he needs to.
Happy Arod silenced some haters at least for a little while. They will be back on Friday in full.
These Twins better have enjoyed that celebration the other day.....its going to be their only one this season.
Go Yanks!
