Mussina or Pettitte..who do Yankee fans want to return?
We don't really know which one will return..if either. The more likely candidate to come back would be Pettitte, as many hint that Mussina is considering retirement. Cashman seems to think that Mussina is leaning torward retirement. He will probably retire, or play three more seasons and try to reach 300 wins. Many thought he was done after last years disappointing season, but...

Melky Cabrera's triple slash numbers:
2006: .280/.360/.391
2007: .273/.327/.391
2008: .249/.301/.341

In 2006, he showed an above average eye at the plate and the ability to slash balls into all fields. When he would get a pitch he could pull for power, that...
My favorite moment of the 2008 Yankees seasona??
The 2008 All-Star Game was my best memory of this season. It was done with style, class, and it was a terrific game. The best part about it was seeing Yankees Principal Owner Mr. George M. Steinbrenner III. It was a nice surprise to see The Boss in public, and it was a stirring..emotional moment for him. After all he did for the organization..he was very deserving. The fans gave...
Huge Phil Hughes Fan
Phil Hughes: I have been a loyal fan since 2004, i followed you in the minors and watched as you became a major leaguer, i was at your very first game sitting behing home plate, you were and still are my favorite athlete, but my only complaint, it is extremely hard to connect with you. I have followed your blog from wordpress, when people used to say you were no good, i defended...

Who would you like to see win it all?
The first New York Yankee-less baseball post-season since 1993 gets underway today. If you're a Yankee fan it probably really doesn't matter who wins the World Series. The Yankees aren't winning it, so who cares?
Truth is, though, I do have some preferences as to who I would like to see win. So, I am previewing [...]
BREAKING NEWS: Brian Cashman has agreed to a three-year deal to remain the Yankees' general manager.
from rotoworld.com:
Newsday is reporting that Brian Cashman has agreed to a three-year deal to remain the Yankees' general manager.
It seemed pretty clear that this was going to get done. Cashman would have had opportunities to run other teams without having his hands tied so frequently, but there wasn't much chance of him leaving the most famous and biggest-spending...

Cashman surprisingly combative
Lots of reaction from various New York writers to Wednesday's Brian Cashman press conference. Personally, I am glad Cashman is returning as New York Yankee general manager, but I was a little put off with how concerned he seems to be with his legacy.
"I'm staying to change the story, that's the fact," Cashman said. "I'm [...]
New York State of Mind
Nearly $350 million in payroll between the New York Yankees and the cross town, Mets. The result? No October baseball in the city of New York. No Johan, no A-Rod, no Jeter, and no David Wright. The Yanks aren't headed to the postseason for the first time in 13 years and for the second consecutive season the New York Mets played themselves out of the playoffs in the final month...
