Screw the All Star Game let's put together a roster from those that have been utter disappointments this season.C: Carlos Ruiz - With a lot of bad awful terrible catchers out there, Ruiz takes the cake this season.

The Los Angeles Dodgers have been a disappointment all season. The off-season signings of manger Joe Torre and slugging outfielder Andruw Jones brought optimism to Chavez Ravine, but that has morphed into a 38-43 record at the halfway point. Torre has not been able to ignite a punchless offense,   more...

I sorta expected something like this, but I was suprised at how long it took for him to admit it. Proctor only told the Dodgers that he was hurting after it was announced that he was being optioned to AAA. "The Dodgers announced on Wednesday that reliever Scott Proctor had been optioned to   more...

With the Yankees recent charge they are looking at their options available for upgrading the team. The most glaring need is in the bullpen where Kyle Farnsworth, Scott Proctor, and Brian Bruney have all been erratic at best. The new idea the organization has is to look to deal these relievers to   more...

The clock is ticking toward today's 4 p.m. major league baseball trade deadline, and as I write this Eric Gagne is still a Texas Ranger, and Scott Proctor and Kyle Farnsworth are still New York Yankees.Most reports have the Yankees, New York Mets and Boston Red Sox all still competing to try and   more...

Now that the long-rumored Mark Teixeira to the Braves deal is finally done (well, almost), we can look at the other possible blockbuster deals looming on the horizon. Huge names like Mark Loretta, Octavio Dotel, Al Reyes and Mike Lamb could move by tomorrow's 4 p.m. deadline. Those are names that   more...

Don't really understand this trade since the Yankees offense is stacked...hopefully not to replace A-Rod next year.

The Anaheim California Angels of Los Angeles just completed a sweep of the $200M New Yankees up in the Bronx, led by our favorite Yardbarker, John Lackey.Lackey pitched a masterful game, giving up 2ERs and striking out 4 over 8 innings, shutting down the powerful NY lineup and earning a league   more...

Makes perfect sense, with the "The Stadium" Hillenbrand losing luster among Yankees brass, Craig "Goldilocks" Wilson not generating much interest and a lack of organizational depth at the postion. Yanks would give up the Farnz or Proctor, in a three way trade with Atlanta. Mostly unfounded   more...

While a move for Garland would make sense for the future of the ball club, the starting rotation is not a pressing issue for a team that expects Hughes and Jeff Karstens back as early as next week. Although to have somebody to replace Roger Clemens when he 'retires' or Andy Pettitte and Mike   more...

Take a look at the Yankees' record in 1-run games: 4-13. The team struggles mightily in close games even as Rivera is becoming more of a bleacher creature than a relied upon reliever. While Torre is waiting for the save opportunity to bring him into games, the bullpen is blowing the attempts for   more...

All the carnage going on in Yankees Universe right now is enough to make even the most die-hard Yankee fan look for something else to do, rather than to watch their favorite team go down the tubes. Here's a suggestion of something to do in the Bronx when the Yankees are dead:

The gap filler that I've got for you is Kige Ramsey giving his winner and loser from the MLB trade deadline, and I have to say, I think for the first time, I'm genuinely disappointed in K-Ram...

Although the trade buzz was loud most of the big names stayed put.
