I notice we're starting on the road again...other than that, nothing notable. Much better than last year, I guess.
This cracks me up at the top of the schedule; HOME HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE Opening Day, April 8 vs. Phillies Torre and the Dodgers, May 29-June 1 Subway Series, June 27-29 National League Champion Rockies, July 11-13 Final Regular Season Game at Shea, September 28 vs. Marlins
I heard the 81 home games got split up. 27 games in Puerto Rico. 27 games in the Dominican Republic and 27 in Mexico.
The Yankees could start a better HISPANIC team than the Mets. Do your homework. Jeter, Cabarera, Abreau, Rodriguez, Posada, Cano, Damon, Betemit Reyes, Castillo, Wright, Beltran, Delgado, Milledge, Alou, Estrada And start Johan Santana (potentially) and finish with Rivera.
I noticed that too; I was a little confused. I don't think anyone will really care then. Hey, do the Yankees play the NL West this year? I think so. Here's to a Yanks-Dodgers series that gets wildly overplayed. I'm already looking forward to it.
Are you kidding? My point was that the Mets have an abundance of latin players. Yankees hispanic players on 40-man roster (10): CF Melky Cabrera RF Bobby Abreu 3B Alex Rodriguez C Francisco Cervelli C Jorge Posada 2B Robinson Cano P Jeffrey Marquez P Jose Veras IF Alberto Gonzalez IF Juan Miranda Mets hispanic players on 40-man roster (22): P Ambiorix Burgos P Willie Collazo P Pedro Feliciano P Orlando Hernandez P Pedro Martinez P Carlos Muniz P Juan Padilla P Oliver Perez P Duaner Sanchez P Jorge Sosa P Jason Vargas C Ramon Castro C Johnny Estrada 1B Carlos Delgado 2B Luis Castillo SS Jose Reyes 2B Ruben Gotay 2B Anderson Hernandez OF Moises Alou OF Carlos Beltran OF Endy Chavez OF Carlos Gomez
He wrote out the whole line-ups, not just the hispanic players for each team. By the way, this is such a dumb topic. I can't think of a single instance where the Mets clearly spurned a white player for an inferior hispanic one. Therefore, who cares?
