Doyel: Rivera's greatness taken for granted

It's become so commonplace, it's like breathing: Mariano Rivera getting a save. The Yankees closer wraps up N.Y.'s 7-4 win over the Phillies but for all his greatness, Rivera gets little recognition, Gregg Doyel says.

MLB could discuss Yanks' numerous mound meetings

All those meetings on the mound called by catcher Jorge Posada and the New York Yankees are giving Major League Baseball pause, too.

Multiple meetings on mound give MLB pause

Jorge Posada and pals visited pitcher CC Sabathia eight times — in a single inning — on Sunday night, grinding Game 4 of the World Series to a standstill. Agitated Phillies fans booed each trip.

We haven't seen, for the most part, the fumbling by managers and stumbling by umpires that have been running themes this October.

Who is the Most Likely MVP of the World Series?

World Series MVP: The Yankees could clinch it tonight - doubtful, Cliff Lee is pitching - and the MVP vote would be difficult. Can A-Rod possibly be in contention despite getting just two hits in the first four games? Jeter is 7-for-16, and a likely contender. Underappreciated Mariano Rivera has three saves, and has to [...]
