I am a fan of Girardi, he has done well as manager of the Yankees so far overall. However, there are some time that I feel he over manages the club. For example, this past weekend against the Mets. On the mound for the other NY team was Oliver Perez, a lefthander. Perez is just down right nasty against left handed batters. So, Girardi takes all of his left handers out of the lineup except Johnny Damon. Good Move? Maybe a good idea if they had a better bench. You cant take Abreu, Giambi, and Cano all out of the lineup on the same day. 8 out of 10 times that will not work. Cano and Giambi are three of your hottest hitters, they need to be in the lineup. Giambi and Abreu are two guys that make the pitcher throw a lot of pitches. Oliver Perez is not a guy known for his control. So, I feel they should have been in the lineup, at least two out of those three guys. On this Yankee club, you can not have a lineup that has Wilson Betemit batting 5th and Melky Cabrera 6th. THAT WONT WORK! I dont care if the Yankees were facing Kei Igawa, that lineup still wouldnt work.

Girardi is a very smart guy and very good manager. But Joe...PLEASE....dont think to much! :)

I just signed up. This site looks awesome. I see a lot of athletes are posting on here as well as fans. It will great to see what everyone is saying. You get to see a different side of the athletes then normal. I plan to write about different sports, mainly my favorite teams such as the Yankees and Rutgers. Hopefully I will meet a lot of you that are already on this site.

I am also planning to make four "lock 'em in" picks every day for MLB games. These picks will be the games I think are locks for teams to win. Obviously its baseball and you never know what will happen, but lets see how I do. Once the NFL and college football seasons starts I will most likely be doing this for them as well.
