Slugfest

What a wild 3 game set. As the old adage (sort of) goes, 2 outta 3 ain't bad. In other news, the Giambino may sign with the Rockies after being cut by the Oakland Athletics. I'm pretty sure being cut by the A's is the most ignominious thing that could happen to a ballplayer.

Prediction: Big G grows back the magic 'stache, signs with the Rocks, and sees his avg. skyrocket +50 points.

Where Are You Going, Robbie Cano?

Have you noticed how much walking Robinson Cano does during an at bat? I've seen batters step out after a pitch. I've even seen ones walk back around the ump if the momentum of their swing-and-miss carries them over the plate. But it seems that Robbie takes a lap after every swing. My favorite moments during these trips come when the catcher tries throwing back to the pitcher and has to wait out RC's loping walkabout.

But with his much improved average this year, I'm not complaining.

Introductory Statement

Begrudgingly, I have decided to end my internet silence and (de?)ascend into the blog-o-sphere. The function of this blog will be for me to muse on all things Yankees, and hopefully open some enlightening discussions.
