To the average baseball fan, the Yankees’ offseason didn’t seem too productive. Their most hated rivals, the Boston Red Sox, picked up Carl Crawford, whom everyone seemed certain would sign with New York. Superstar pitcher Cliff Lee opted for less money (big burn!) and returned to the Phillies. Instead of…
As the Mets continue their sleepwalk through 2011, their recent Sunday night marathon win notwithstanding, the prevalent thought among those “in-the-know” is that Jose Reyes will be swapped away before the July 31st trade deadline. If Sandy Alderson heads down that errant path it may prove to be one of…
The 16-9 New York Yankees head into Detroit this week to take on the 12-16 Tigers. Although the Tigers are coming into the series on a six-game losing streak, and the records speak for themselves, it’s still early in the season, and the Yanks shouldn’t head into this four-game battle…
It was nice of the Mets to show signs of life by winning 6 in a row. It was nice to feel guarded optimism if for only a few games and finally begin to see the talent on the team produce results. Unfortunately, the mini-party is over and after the…
Who says you can’t teach an old dog new tricks… Earlier this week we discussed the possibility of Russell Martin being the steal of the offseasonafter the Yankees signed him to a one-year, $7 million contract. Well, Bartolo Colon is showing why he may just be the biggest surprise of…
By: Sergio Pineda It’s usually a given that any young starter who has notched his first 7 starts with a cumulative 2.22 ERA and a 1.19 WHIP would be easily looked at as a promising and exciting part of an average rotation. Not the case on the New York Mets…
By: Sergio Pineda A Tale of Two Jasons… Less than a week ago, the vultures were circling over the New York Mets. GM Sandy Alderson was going on radio interviews making it clear he was looking for dance partners to start the rebuilding process and begin dumping payroll. Not so…
The best off-season pick-up in all of baseball may have been Russell Martin. The Yankees signed the free agent catcher to a one-year, $4 million contract prior to the season. Sure, at the time it may have seemed as though the Yankees were taking a risk/reward chance, but now it…
As the Mets continue to sit at the basement of the NL East, National League and MLB, the offense will hopefully get a jump start as Jason Bay will make his 2011 debut tonight, starting in left field. This marks the first time that Bay’s name will be penciled in…
The Mets have finally given up on Rule 5 Draft pick Brad Emaus and designated him for assignment. Twenty-six year old Justin Turner will earn the start at second base tonight in place of Emaus. Emaus hit a dismal .162 (6-37) with one RBI in 14 games before ultimately getting…
Eric Chavez and Andruw Jones are two veterans who at one time had all-star careers. Both gold glove quality fielders with big time bats. Both are now relegated to back up roles with the New York Yankees. Both Chavez and Jones have played important roles in pinstripes already and they…
So far this season, the New York Mets have shown they can score runs. The problem is, they have also shown they are going to give up a ton of runs as well. New York is currently 4-9, losers of five straight entering Friday’s contest with division rival Atlanta. For the…
