Brian Cashman to blame as much as anyone for the Yankees 2-0 ALCS hole.
The rhetoric surrounding Alex Rodriguez is beginning to sound less like a broken record, and more like a record that has been taken off the dial, snapped in half, and thrown out the window. Anyone with two eyes can tell that the 2-0 hole the Yankees are in is not the sole responsibility of Alex Rodriguez, but fans observe the $30 Million a year contract and immediately see red. So...
A-Rod: I'll Be Back in 2013
From Peter Botte:One day after GM Brian Cashman denied reports about trade talks regarding Rodriguez, the benched former All-Star said he has no plans to waive his no-trade rights during what figures to be an eventful winter in the Bronx.
“That’s correct. I will be back. I have a lot to prove and I will be back, on a mission,” Rodriguez said after going hitless in two at...
Pitcher arm health: the more we learn, the more we have to learn
The dominant storyline of the last half of the MLB regular season was no doubt Stephen Strasburg, his surgically repaired elbow, and the decision to shut him down. After the Nationals were eliminated Friday night, the proliferation of “told you so” columns was somewhat muted, given that the Nats squandered a six run lead in [...]
A-Rod: “I will be back”
The post season did not go the way the New York Yankees or third-basemen Alex Rodriguez had hoped. Despite having baseball’s highest payroll the Yankees were swept out of the American League Championship Series by the Detroit Tigers. While there is plenty of blame to go around there are many fingers pointed at Rodriguez who finished the series a miserable 3-for-25 and was pinch...

From Andrew Marchand:With the idea of shaking up the lineup going into Game 3 against the Detroit Tigers’ ace Justin Verlander, Yankees GM Brian Cashman said that Brett Gardner could be a starting outfielder.
"He still might play a role in this thing," Cashman said on ESPN New York 98.7 FM’s "The Michael Kay Show." "You could very well see Gardner...
Yankees lose in humiliating fashion, and the recriminations begin
I missed seeing most of yesterday's game live due to work projects. This was a blessing in disguise, of course. From what I saw later, heard about and read, it doesn't sound like the Yankees even showed up. I was angry before the game, and furious after it, and I'm still ticked off now. When I saw the first part of Joe Girardi's postgame interview, when he talked...
NY Yankee Manager Joe Girardi’s Moves are Gutsy and Fair Regarding ARod
The media has so many points covered, particularly in the sports/celebrity world, that I often feel there is little more to add. Between the extremes and the in-between, we have heard it all about the Yankees, ARod, and their potential sweep at the hands of the Tigers.
