No need for a panic move

Cinnamon Wang hurts himself on a non-contact trip around the bases and now Hank comes out and practically demands the National League change their rules to prevent American League pitchers from getting hurt. Why stop there Hank? Why not just amend every rule as you see fit? Here I've thrown together some goodies for you to bring up to Bud Selig that should help the Yankees this season.

What happens when you get 30 media heavies together for a roundtable? Ask a few that came... Ken Rosenthal, Jerry Crasnick, Chuck Armstrong, King Kaufman, Tim Marchman, Ken Davidoff, Dayn Perry, Peter Abraham, Andrew Zimbalist... etc.... etc.

Mike Mussina made a deal with Joe Girardi that if he got 10 wins the ice cream could return to the clubhouse. Moose won that 10th game when he was on the road and now that the Yankees are back home he can enjoy. Once he reaches 12 wins the doughnuts return and at 15 the candy comes back.

Yet another rant from the Sports Muffin: Chien-Ming Wang will be sidelined until September with an injury he suffered while running the bases during an interleague game in Houston. This injury has prompted criticism from Hank Steinbrenner and radio announcer JT "the Brick", and raises the question of whether or not the NL should adopt the DH rule and spare their pitchers...

As a Yankee fan, sports fan, and decider of all things asinine, I'd like to congratulate Hankie on already eclipsing his father in his 1970-80's glory years and even the fake Seinfeld Stein to take the title as the biggest jackass named Steinbrenner.

This is interesting, Alex Rodriguez and Pete Rose are very good friends according to ESPN. Well actually, it's not THAT interesting because you would expect two great hitters to eventually meet and hit it off, regardless of if one of them is banned from baseball for life. The interesting part is that Pete Rose told A-Rod through a series of text messages that he should sign...

With no Tribe game to discuss, I thought it would be an opportune time to open a forum regarding two specific things that occurred yesterday; both making me shake my head in disbelief during more than one occasion. First, I find it absolutely hysterical (and a bit sad, actually) that there is a sudden outcry against interleague baseball because the ace starting pitcher of the...

Yankee Ace Chien Ming Wang is out indefinately. Some accounts say 4-6 weeks, others speculating it could be a season ender. So what do the Yankees do? A couple thoughts on what they will do to fill the Wang-less gap.

Mike Mussina, especially during his tenure with the New York Yankees, has earned the classification of a delicate genius. The origins of the moniker no doubt arise from the fact that he is such a creature of habit and routine that any deviation from it decreases his effectiveness on the mound. One popular anecdote regarding how much Mussina hates any sort of change is how he handled...

The Toronto Star is calling pitcher A.J. Burnett "classless" today. In other words, looks like the Yanks have found an available pitcher! Actually, the news that Burnett - who can opt out of his contract at season's end - is on the trade market is not exactly breaking news. A.J. is 26-22 in 2+ injury-plagued seasons after signing a five-year, $55 million contract with...

It does not take a supercomputer to tell Cubs fans that Alfonso Soriano's injury is going to hurt the team, but it does take the AccuScore supercomputer to tell you exactly how much.

We've never heard of a shelved Wang, but it sounds god awful. Best of luck to the Yanks as they begin to play without their Wang. It's certainly hard to imagine any more classic quotes coming from Hank without having...

As summer switches into high gear and temperatures across the country begin to rise, The Leak is creating new and innovative ways to keep you indoors and save you from those nasty CO2 emissions, twilight dinners with the in-laws and the neighborhood Cougar who simply should not be wearing that skimpy of a bathing suit.

With all of this talk regarding the Indians and the potential to be the future owners of former members of the New York Yankees, I present to you the ironically-timed announcement from the Indians Media Relations department: The Cleveland Indians announced they have signed 3B MORGAN ENSBERG to a minor league contract and assigned him to the AAA Buffalo Bisons. Ensberg, 32, played...

Horrible news for the suddenly red hot Yankees today as their ace Chien Ming Wang is out for quite a while now. What does this mean for the Yankees?
