you pretty much said it all right there. I'm sick of it. It really is an embarrasment to the Yankees. We already have everyone riding us about how much our team spends on these guys,now he's sucking...and Shade is laughing. For this,F you randy.
I can't really blame Randy for this. Players get old and their bodies start to break down. With the exception of Roger Clemens, no player has been able to almost completely escape old age. A good thing here if that a "breaking-down" Randy is still better than about 80% of the pitchers in the league. Us Yankee fans should be more concerned with the inability to score runs with our "mighty" lineup.
The lineup, even without Sheffield and Matsui, is not the problem right now. Our supposed "ace" pitching to a 5 ERA, that's the problem.
Ok, I'll agree that the OF is a concern, but we still have A-Rod, Jeter, Damon (best? leadoff hitter in the AL?), Giambi, Posada, and Cano swinging the bat, and we still put up a solid 1 run against Harden. I'm not saying Randy isn't to blame. His age is finally beginning to show, but IMO we have bigger problems on the offensive side of the game.
IMO,Randy just doesn't belong as a NY Yankee. He would still be dominant on a Nat league small market team. He's just not a NY guy.
I'm not gonna go as far and say that...Because we all wanted an Ace, begged Cashman to get an Ace...And, he did it. And I know at least 90% of us were in favor of the trade...I just didn't like shipping Navarro, but it happens... Yes Randy sucks, and I hope he retires so he can give the money back:breakdance:, but it won't happen...He's just gutless.
I know about 90% of NYYFans.com were completely against the trade. Tampa/Levine brokered the RJ deal, that deal was one of the reasons Cashman wanted complete autonomy.
Well that's news to me. The object was to get an ace...I was fine parting with Vasquez and Halsey, but Navarro I wanted to keep pretty bad... I say most Yanks fans were for it because of the year he came off of, he was an Ace, and that's what the Yankees were missing. I wanted Tim Hudson, but thatw as about 2% chance of happening... I'm not gonna blast the trade because I just wanted a guy you can depend on every 5th day for a win, and at the time, Randy was
I call it the curse of the camera man.. Ever since he stuck his Big Bird hand into the face of a camera man it has been all down hill..
give him a couple starts off and bring up hughes...have someone figure things out....he is hurting the team bad
Hughes cannot be called up yet. He needs 150-200 more professional innings before that could even be considered.
I'm curious, is Hughes in AAA? Is he near major league ready yet? Just asking. I don't know much about the Yankees farm system.
alright, but somethign has to be done....who is our most ready sp prospect right now?? randy seriosuly needs to take a couple weeks off and figure out the basics.....he really is killing us and is now a liability to the yankees.....
