Here's how valuable Wakefield is.... After the bullpen got used heavily last night and with Matsuzaka going today... If an early call needs to be made to the bullpen wakefield has volunteered to pitch. Regardless of what happens tonight Wakefield will still make his scheduled start Tuesday.

[JoltinJoe]

I would take Wakefield over any of the Yankees guys in Game 7 of the World Series.

For some reason all this time, I thought you were a Red Sox fan.

The Yankees sure made the Mets their bitch today. I bet K-Rod feels real smart for his pre-game charades today.

Yea, K-Rod is a good pitcher, but until he can control his emotions like he usually controls his pitches, he'll be his own worst enemy over time...that was bush league today...

FYI anyone looking for good yankee tix they just added a bunch of specials (E-Savers)

http://newyork.yankees.mlb.com/nyy/ticketing/esaver.jsp

They are for the Audi Club, Batter's Eye (dead center field) and Mohegan Sun seating and, suprisingly, include the 4th of July weekend games.

The Batter's eye seats are pretty cool - dead center field above the Mohegan Sun sport's bar. There's only about 20 or so seats in that section. They are selling for $50 from the original price of $125.

Fire sale at Yankee Stadium seating?

Yanks lose to the Nats...go fucking figure. I don't know why they can never beat the shit teams.

The Red Sox are the only team they haven't beaten at least once in a series. I believe that's the only team that's swept them all season. That will change. Now that we got rid of Veras and got Bruney back the bullpen should get a little more reliable.

Red Sox (3 times)
Tampa Bay (May 4-5)

Go fucking figure a red cox fan would point minute details out about a team him and his favorite organization are completely jealous of.

Just printed out my Yankees tickets for tomorrow at noon in the Metrodome vs the Twins.

Meeting my daughter at 11:45, should be a fun Thursday afternoon

[Willie]

Good. You can watch the 2nd consecutive sweep of da Twinks.

Yankees are my second favorite team, Twins 3rd and Red Sox least favorite.

Detroit Tigers are my fav

Looks like Liriano might pitch today since Perkins missed a start last night because of a fever.
Perkins could also be the starter.

I disliked the Bosox before you were a twinkle in your fathers eye's

[JoltinJoe]

Yanks are playing much better and are now tied for first. Still, I won't get excited about this team until it proves it can consistently get up for big games.

Robertson tried his best to give the game away, he's gotta go. Hughes did a good job, and Rivera got Mauer to ground out to end the game.

[Ibanez]

I just want to say that the Yankee's blow.

[JoltinJoe]

The Yankees are deluding themselves if they think they can skate by with Mitre as the No. 5 starter for the next few weeks. If they keep wedded to that decision, they have "wild card" stamped all over them.

It's time to move Philip Hughes into the No. 5 spot, and expect Brian Bruney to do his job in the 8th inning, or find someone else to cover the 8th. Hughes can go back to the bullpen come playoff time.

[Willie]

It was a dumb move to put Hughes into the bullpen in the first place. He's a starter, plain and simple. And we need to get rid of Wang, he's worthless to us now.

he's out for at least 12 months after his shoulder surgery on Monday. who's going to take him?
What really hurt is Ian Kennedy's injury.

Girardi just said on Fox that the month of August will see substantial moves. I wouldn't be surprised to see Bronson Arroyo from the Reds come to the Yankees off waivers.

Nice weekend series against the Roid Sox

Sox better get some hitting or they'll be lucky to keep a hold on the wildcard.

2 runs in their last 33 innings of play.

Happy days are here again!
