Phil Hughes, the Yankees 23 year old righty starter, has run into some unfortunate circumstances. After a season in 2010 in which he won 18 games, Hughes looked to build off that success in 2011. After a series of abysmal outings, the Yankees put him on the disabled list. And all of a sudden, Hughes [...]
The Yankees are constantly berated for buying championships. So much so that they’ve been dubbed “The Evil Empire.” As it turns out, the nickname may be deserved, but if the Yankees are The Evil Empire, the Baltimore Orioles should be called something like The Malicious Federation. As most fans will reluctantly admit, baseball is a [...]
This has been a rough start to the season for the New York Mets. After starting the season 3-1, the Mets have been sliding down a very steep hill. Going into last night’s game the Mets were a disappointing 5-13 meaning they were just 2-12 since their nice start. While their offense hasn’t been horrible, [...]
Yankees ace CC Sabathia will make his fifth start of the young season tonight against the Baltimore Orioles. Does it bother anyone besides me that Sabathia does not have a win yet? So far this year, CC Sabathia has a sparkling ERA of 2.37, but an 0-1 record. With an ERA like that, Sabathia deserves [...]
The New York Rangers are finally back home after starting the Stanley Cup Playoffs in Washington. While the Rangers weren’t in Washington for that long it probably felt like forever as their offense struggled mightily in the Nation’s Capital. While the Rangers are happy to be back playing in front of the home crowd they [...]
I didn’t really think much of it when the Yankees signed Russell Martin over the offseason. Sure, he was a 2-time All-Star with the Dodgers, but he had been plagued with injuries. I was annoyed that he was taking the spot on the roster that I felt belonged to Jesus Montero. But after the first [...]
Since Carmelo Anthony showed up at the doorstep of The World’s Most Famous Arena on February 21st, the Knicks have been as mediocre as it gets; they are 12-12 since his arrival. To most Knick fans, a .500 record is something to brag about, as there hasn’t been good basketball in The City since Jeff [...]
Coming into the night the New York Rangers controlled their own playoff destiny. All they had to do was win their final two games of the regular season and they were safely in. Considering their first one was against the Atlanta Thrashers who are already out of playoff contention it seemed like a pretty easy [...]
On March 31 the New York Mets placed OF Jason Bay on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to March 25, with a strained intercostal muscle. For those of you who aren’t doctors the intercostal muscle is located in the rib cage and can be very slow to heal. Based off of Jason Bay’s luck last [...]
Like many Yankees fans, I have become used to the Yanks owning the Twins since they have dominated them for years now. They played well in the game one victory, and appeared to have game two in the “W” column. But as Yogi Berra said, “It ain’t over till it’s over.” And last night, Yankees [...]
