New York Yankees at Baltimore Orioles, May 8, 2009 7:05 PM EDT

Game time is 7:05.

Look who's back. And at just the right time. Boy, baseball needs a goodwill ambassador, and I can't think of anyone better than Alex Fraudriguez.

honestly?

I don’t care about roids very much. I always actually kinda liked A-Rod, if only because I thought he was a great player who got a raw deal from fans and writers. Now I’m just kinda into indifference about him, but I can’t outright hate him any more than I can hate most of the Yankees.

In fact, aside from Jeter I can’t really hate many of the current Yankees. Not even Tex. Corporate mercenaries just leave me cold. Oh well.

by pipkin on May 8, 2009 6:42 PM EDT reply actions  

A-Rod is a posturing tool

And I’ve never liked any player less. I didn’t care about ‘roids so much until that’s basically the only news in baseball. Hey this guy did it, this guy did it, this guy did it. I’ve been watching bullshit for what, 15 years now?

Watching Trenton Thunder play Bowie yesterday

Made me wonder how does a minor leaguer with ability keep motivated in the Yankee organization? Unless they are a total stud player they don’t have a chance to make it to the majors. A Trenton fan made the point that NY is not the town for young talent because high paying NY fans want the celebrity/big star ballplayer as opposed to the young player (Felix Pie, Adam Jones) playing and learning everyday at the big league level.

Depends on where you are in the system

As a pitcher? If you’re good, you’ll always find a place. If you’re a SS more than 2 years away, you’ve got a shot – Jeter can’t keep going forever. Outfield? Have you SEEN who they’re running out there? Catcher? Within a year, they’ll need one.

Now, corner infielder? Yeah, you’re screwed. But almost anywhere else, the Yankees, like most teams in baseball, are at most 3 seasons away from needing a replacement.

Maybe run up his pitch count but he is throwing strikes. They have to hit their way on against him to get to the bull pen

Guts is quietly have a pretty good game. Except for the two walks and the HR

he has pitched effectively. I would love to see him go as long as possible regardless of the pitch count.
