Was I the only one thinking that he should have saved that move for a close game?

Phil, agree re: all these stats. Wins are the bottom line and as you say, GB.

you can throw any number you want out there- OPS, OBP, AT&T, MCI, RSWSNBAFB (Runs scored with someone named Bill at First BASE)….I only care about one.

GB

That’s it….GB.

I’m giving up on all stat trends, ERA in the month of June on Tuesdays, how many tinmes Torre picks his nose in the dugout, Home Runs hit when an episode of Friends is on, all of that is thrown out my window.

One thing remains important….GB

We were 5 GB before the D-Rays, we are 5 GB after the D-Rays. As far as I’m concerned- this series never happened….we just hit fast forward and skipped a few games by accident.

But the Giambi bunt….classic. Say whatever you want about the guy- you can certainly deny his ability, but can’t deny his desire to be the guy he used to be.

As their song says, the Yankees had better:

“Sweep the Mets, Sweep the Mets, step right up and sweep the Mets…..”

I have dogged Giambi for a long time, but I’m willing to give him credit when it’s due. He did the right thing. It took him years to do it, but at least he got to that point. If everybody else (starting with Stein and working on down) would swallow their pride and do the right thing, we could have a team here.

Or, it was Cashman asking if he wanted to ride with he and Womack to the unemployment office tomorrow.

That was me calling Joe, sorry about that.
