I can't believe I am saying it, but I am wishing for the days of a younger Steinbrenner. He would have been long gone by now.

Truth be told, the Yankees SHOULD have won two of three games at Fenway this weekend. I'm not taking anything away from the Sox efforts, but he had a lead going into the 7th inning I believe in both games, and due to his pitching mismanagement, they lost both games.

It is time for Torre to go. Not at the end of the season. NOW. Not only will they do better, but it may just show Arod that the manager that put him 8th last season in Detroit is no longer his coach.

Torre is probably as bad a strategist as the Yankees have ever had. Stump Merrill could have won with this team.
Is it Torre's fault Rivera completely shit the bed Friday night? Isn't that his job...bring in the relief ace to put out the fire?

Proctor's been overused, so you can have a claim at that one, but who would you have brought in in that spot? Vizcaino? That'd be three in a row from him. Henn? Farnsworth?

edit - lol
