Baseball is just getting started, but basketball is in its final stretch of regular season games. As you all know, the Knicks added superstar Carmelo Anthony along with Chauncey Billups in a three team swing at the deadline. New York gave a large amount of talent to move Melo to the Garden, but a closer analysis of the players given makes this an ideal trade.The Knicks were coming...

Chris McGrath/Getty Images
The news that Jets fans have been waiting to hear since the start of training camp. Our prized player, the coolest cornerback in the league, Darelle Revis, is close to signing.
There have been whisperings all night of a meeting between my boy Darelle's agent meeting with the Jets tonight to lock this thing up.
Some other writers have been...

Robinson Cano: Why He Should Win MVP
Since the baseball season is in it's home stretch everyone starts talking about awards. C.C. Sabathia is looking like a front runner in the A.L. Cy Young race. The interesting race to follow this season will be the 2010 A.L. MVP. There are four hitters who can make a claim to the prestigious award: Josh Hamilton, Miguel Cabrera, Adrian Beltre and Robinson Cano. Joe Mauer has...

It's Good To Be Home
The Notorious C.C.
C.C. Sabathia is tied for the most wins in baseball with 17. He is the best pitcher in baseball right now in my opinion and would have my Cy Young vote.
Of course C.C.'s numbers are impressive but what really jumps out are his stats at home. Sabathia is 9-0 at home this season. This season his home ERA (2.64) is a whole point lower than his away era (3.55...

A.J. Burnett: The Tale of Two Men
When A.J. Burnett steps out to the mound you never know what you are going to get. Sometimes he strikes out nine guys while pitching 7 innings and sometimes he gives up 8 runs to Toronto. Every Yankee fan knows what I am talking about, this guy is inconsistent. I can take just the starts from this month to show you.
August 2nd was a bad A.J. sighting, he pitched 4 and 2/3rds innings...

Here They Come, Yo. Here They Come.
Curtis Grand has gotten a lot of crap since coming to New York, especially since the guy who the Yankees traded for him, Austin Jackson, is hitting .303. He started off the year red hot but then a groin injury slowed him down. It seems now C-Grand is starting to pick up steam again.
In the last ten games Grandy is batting .333 with 3 homers. Maybe hope week is inspiring him or...

Clemens Indicted
My MS Paint picture from when this Clemens news first came about, a post in late 2007.
It has been a while since we have had some steroid news, nearly 2 years after Roger Clemens testified in front of congress he has been indicted on 6 counts of perjury. These government steroid trials take so long, I wish this was all over but this is far from over.
Let me put on my lawyer pants...

Injury Updates: Berkman to DL
Lance was put on the DL today to make room for infielder Eduardo Nunez, the team was tired of having Cervelli being the 5th infielder. According to Cashman neither A-Rod's nor Berkman's injuries are serious:
“There’s only so long you’re comfortable going with no backup infielder, it’s nothing serious on either one of them.”
Berkman wanted to run today but the...

A-Rod Update
(AP Photo/Kathy Willens)
A-Rod took some swings in the cage yesterday and reported no pain in his calf. So will he be in the lineup today? No. The answer is no. Girardi said that A-Rod will not be playing until he can prove he can run with no pain.
"That's not running, so, I'll see where he's at tomorrow. He felt better today. But he didn't run and obviously...

When Will We See Andy?
Antonelli/News
As you should know by now Andy Pettitte went to get and MRI yesterday. The MRI revealed a “small persistent strain” of the left groin. Pettitte is not allowed to throw off a mound for another week. He will continue to throw off flat ground.
Girardi said not to expect Pettitte back until sometime in mid September. Joe likes to guess conservatively so there is...
