It Is About That Time for Another Yankee Update


Its been a rough couple of weeks. Question: Does payroll matter? If it doesn't matter, why does everyone bitch about us spending so much moola? Really, why does anyone care how much the Yankees spend if, especially in recent years, it hasn't produced No. 27? As of this very moment, we are 14-15. One game under .500%. Why do beat writers say we are "floundering"? We are one game under .500. Currently, there are 14 teams under .500. Why does everyone have to go out of their way to HATE the Yanks? I was at a game in the Bronx two years back, a game between us and the Angels. There were people there wearing Minnesota Twins jerseys, just rooting AGAINST the Yanks. Who does this?? Get a life. Anyway, we had a pretty good win today. C.C. tossed a 112 pitch complete game shut out, 4 hits 8k 2bb. Not too shabby, lowering his ERA almost a full point. However, against Jeremy Guthrie, we succumbed to 10k's, and in all, double digits left on base. Even so, the most appealing moment of the night, something that I actually called would happen, exactly how it did, was Alex Rodriguez's first pitch 3 run jack. God Bless the New York Yankees.

We are not floundering, fuckers.
