Five More Years For Sweet Lou

Click for full story. Phil Jasner seems to have broken the story, without any numbers. The Sixers have come to terms with Lou Williams for a five-year extension. I'm guessing it'll be somewhere in the $25M range.I'll keep my eyes open and throw a...

The Angels Are The Team To Beat

Click for full story. I think the headline sums up my thoughts after this game. Garland is far from dominant, this was probably the one game in the four game set which you had to say the Yanks had the pitching advantage, maybe Moose...

Joe, Meet Manny.

Click for full story. It looks like the Red Sox have finally called Manny's bluff and pulled the trigger on a trade sending him out of Beantown.According to multiple reports, the Sox agreed to a three-team trade with the Dodgers and the Pirates. The...

When did Beantown West leave the network? (Sorry, I've been napping for months). Manny leaving Boston is a positive for the Yankees. The guy might have been a thorn in Francona's side, but he was...

Yanks Add Pudge

Click for full story. Buster Olney is reporting a shocking deal. The Yanks have apparently traded Kyle Farnsworth for Ivan Rodriguez.Wow. Farnsworth had settled in as the 8th inning guy for the Yanks, but look at it this way, he's still the same pitcher...
Latest comment: from JJ
Great move by the Yankees! While Boston is playing addition by subtraction and diluting their lineup by trading away Ramirez, the Yankees are acquiring a veteran who could start everyday, if necessary. (So glad they...

Too Little, Too Late

Click for full story. I don't know about you, but I sure thought they were going to pull this one out. Tying run at second, one out with the hottest hitter on the planet at the plate in the bottom of the ninth. It...

Sixers Add A Shooter

Click for full story. Can you really argue with the addition of a 39% shooter from downtown for the veteran's minimum? Neither can I.The word on the street is the Sixers will announce tomorrow the signing of Kareem Rush. I'm assuming it will be...
Latest comment: from gdog
I like this deal. Every guy in the starting five for the sixers is a VERY good defender. If Rush comes in to spread the floor when they need some hoops down low i dont...

Horrible Night For A Game

Click for full story. Whenever you head to the Stadium for a game it's special. You spend the whole day looking forward to your first glimpse of the field. You always have a good feeling about the game. The possibilities are endless. Unfortunately, sometimes...
Latest comment: from Brian
Yep, Marte got his first home-town boo in NY, and he earned it. Hopefully he'll bounce back. The Yanks look like world-beaters for two weeks, now this. Ugh....

Time To Start A New Streak

Click for full story. As the Yanks head home tonight looking to bounce back from yesterday's Ponson implosion, a key adjustment has been made to the rotation. The Moose will pitch tonight, on normal rest, instead of sticking with the rotation as is and...

Milton Bradley cracks me up. Yeah, they got more out of him than I thought they would, but it's time to cut him loose....

A Disappointing End In Boston

Click for full story. After two heartening wins to open the series, the Yanks laid an egg tonight. Ponson was putrid, the offense left runners stranded left and right. Pretty much everything that could've gone wrong did, and Lester was more than up to...
Latest comment: from Cam
Yeah, I agree about Kennedy. As long as he has regained his control in AAA, there is no reason to think that he would be a downgrade over Ponson. I still stick with Rasner for...

I Can't Believe I Forgot...

Click for full story. The comedic highlight of the game: With one out in the top of the third, Jose Molina found himself standing on second base with Derek Jeter at the plate. Jeter hit a somewhat deep fly ball to center. Without thinking...
