Yankees Chick:
If you watch the MLB channel as incessantly as I do, you've likely realized that they apparently only have approximately three bumpers that they recycle during promos over and over and over and over (and over!) again all the live long day. Every hour for the past week or so we've been treated to Harold Reynolds telling us that the Yankees have bullpen issues and it's difficult for them to get to Mariano in the 9th.Brian Bruney, who will likely do the set-up work for Mo fairly often in the coming season, took umbrage with that dig and had this to say in response:I take that personally.

Our Burning Questions for A-Rod
On WFAN's Carton and Boomer this AM, Carton asked Boomer "If you were
at the press conference with A-Rod today, and had the chance to ask one
question, what would you ask?" And, predictably, Boomer asked something
about steroids.That's a little lame, as every reporter there would be hounding him for a money quote on the issue.So we thought, if we had one question...
