Pitch around Matsui to get to Posada? Pitch around Posada to get to Cano? yeah, ok, sure, good luck. Jeter was an absolute vacuum cleaner AGAIN last night and that kid cabrera will soon be playing right field!!! can you imagin having fielding like that in right field? He'd start at center for just about anyone else in the league. Red Sox fans know its coming, they may not want to admit it but believe me they know. They had an opportunity with a hot streak and more than half the Yankee stars injured to open serious daylight, and they just couldnt do it. When Sheffield gets back September 1st, well, thats just the icing on the cake. The injuries forced the pitchers to bear down and not count on run support and for the Yankees to not count on the long ball and play solid run manufacturing fundamental baseball. The way that Cairo, Phillips, Guile, Green, Williams had to fill in and perform leaves the Yankees with very sharp and godd backup players if someone needs a game off as well. Trust me, this isn't even going to be close at the end. I'm talking 5-7 games at least, maybe 10. You are about to witness one hell of a run, I don't know too many guys who follow and love the Yanks and baseball like I do and I tend to be very pessimistic/realistic. If I tell you to bet the farm, go and get down heavily, you will thank me later.

YOU HAVEN'T SAID A THING ABOUT PITCHING.Beckett was solid last night.Schilling is way solid.Besides,I would get sick watching the Yanks play all the time.I'd get nightmares with Torre's nose eating everybody.
