"I don't know if he's trying to stir things up or not," he said. "I sure as hell don't care, because he sure as hell hasn't stepped foot on a baseball field. He needs to just stick to pencil-pushing, I guess. It's different if a player says that because they're the ones stepping between the war lines. Whatever, man.

"You just keep letting A-Rod knock you all over the yard, OK there Paps?" What?!? I'm not a Yankees or Red Sox fan, but there are about a million things wrong with that statement. I'm pretty sure the Sox are winning the battle right now.

The Red Sox are World Champs, I'm not trying to take that away from them. But ARod is a .400 hitter vs. Papelbon.

Maybe.

in the reg season or post

You hate the Yankees more. That statement proves it. Nice, unbiased sports analysis from ShakespeareD. Good posture though.

C'mon. Your defending Hank?

He really thinks a player would be more respected if he said what Hank said? Oh, Puh-leez!

Wow. Papelbon going from precocious young pitcher to outspoken, Schilling-esque veteran before our very eyes.

Red Sox Dancing Half-Naked? Never A Good Idea
Thankfully, for everyone, the Sox players were not stripping off clothes at a club -- it's much better (worse?) than that.

The Red Sox Starting Rotation: A Fantasy Perspective
They are the defending champions, and of course, pitching played a large role. So what to expect in '08? Well Beckett and Dice-K are the two studs, but there are some young pitchers who will also play a role. Here's a look at the Kings of the Hill for the Boston Red Sox:

1B Sean Casey: Is He For Real?
Going into his 11th year in MLB, "the Mayor", as he is called by some fans, has done the unthinkable in the mind of today's modern athlete. He has opted to take a lesser role to play on a winning team in contention for another World Series title (it would be their second in a row and their 3rd since 2004). He admittedly had offers on the table as a starting First baseman...

Yankees Jose Tabata is Overrated
Jose Tabata is listed as the New York Yankees number two prospect for 2008. He was also ranked number two in 2007 and number three in 2006.
To me Jose Tabata doesn't project to be much more than Melky Cabrera line in 2007, with perhaps a little higher average.

From George A. King III:
March 1, 2008 -- TAMPA - Hank Steinbrenner was done talking about the wonderful pitching performance turned in by Generation Trey against USF yesterday at Legends Field when he was asked about Kei Igawa's miserable outing against the Big East school.
"Let's not bring that up," Steinbrenner said. "Hopefully we can straighten...
Sabathia Bronx-bound in '09?
SI.com's Jon Heyman said in his column Monday that it is highly unlikely Cleveland will be able to meet the $100 million-plus price tag the AL's reigning Cy Young Award winner C.C. Sabathia will be seeking. He pegged the Yankees as clear front-runners to obtain Sabathia, who turns 28 in July.
