careful - i may have overreacted as a fan 3 games into the season and said he was a bust, he has shown that april was a bad month and may was agreat month



scuds never said bust - he was talking about the contact size and what he specifically did not do to earn it (the same case can be made for a-rod)

to me if tex and a-rod carry the yankees home in the postseason then every dollar was worth it , if they both do disappearing acts in key clutch spots that both have done in the past in the postseason then they and yankee fans will consider them failures

see to play in NY and take the $ you have to produce in the big post season spotlight , A-rod has carried the team in may before and then had to bat 8th in the lineup because he totally lost it in oct that year

if you ask any yankee fan right now about A-rod's tenure in the bronx is it a passing grade or failing grade - the only answer at this point is failiure , he has to win a world series

tex now falls into the same category he has to win a wrold series

the pitching can carry them there this year, but 1 of those 2 is going to have to be a game changer (ie puljos) in the big spot in oct

It's still basketball season out there.

tomorrow (or thurs cant remember) is Antonio Bastardo's first MLB start for the Phillies. He's a nice prospect and will be interesting to see how he does. Has been pitching well for the Iron Pigs.

Lucky for him his first start will be against Jake Peavey.

1) They are waiting for the fireworks on Friday Night(after the game.)
2) It's on virtually everyone's dish or cable in the L.A. area.
3) Very overpriced.
4) Manny gone.
5) The D'BACKS are having an off year.
6) Starting Pitcher for the D'BACKS is not well known.
7) Fans n' Players (both) took Monday off, after kickin' Baby Bears butts on National T.V.(Sunday Night.) This was a let down.
8) Nobody wanted to see Kuroda get rocked early(was a possibility he could of been horribly off, but he pitched well.)
9) Lakers
10) Poor L.A. Economy
11) Saving their money for the bigger series against the Phils.
12) I Would rather spend $100 a ticket to go to a playoff game.
13) Ocean air cuts down on chance of seeing bombs hit out of that park at night.
