Big 3 games series at Fenway starts tonight. Joba versus Beckett. Is this the game Joba gives the Yanks 7-8 dominate innings?
I am not sure Posada rehabbing is a great idea. I think his shoulder injury will effect his hitting. The rehab for the shoulder surgery is 6 months so if he goes under the knife September 1st, he would be ready the middle of February. I think the plan is to use him during the trade deadline by saying, he we have Jorgie coming off the DL the beginning of August so we do not need another bat and will not look desperate in the trade market. Then if they can land a big bat and he cannot get healthy, 60 day DL him the beginning of September and he should be ready for next year.
The Yanks have a lot of good arms at AA and AAA so they should be able to land Washburn or a decent #4 if they want to.
Anyone else think Christain should be the backup OF. I am a big fan of Gardner but I think at this point in their careers, Christain is a better bench/runner type player. He is 28, Gardner is 25.
I am torn on Melky. I really like him but if he does not start hitting more and waving for the roll call, I may think he needs to go. Action Jackson is looking good in AA and may warrant a good hard look next Spring.
Anyone have an update on the new Stadium progress? And the Metro North train stop?
