Wait, what?

Was it one of those “I am supposed to say this” comments?

Probably, but Kevin Callabro asked point blank and he said he loves it here.

Loves the fans, family is comfortable, etc.

Fuck the Angels!

Glancing at Royals vs. Yankees game.

Royals attempted a suicide squeeze with Yuni at the plate. Yuni misses the bunt leaving John Buck (stealing home) hanging out to dry.

Good ol’ Yunibomer.

So kind of like a murder-suicide squeeze.

So... Morrow...

I think he still has #3 potential and he’ll reach it by mid-2011.
But right now… I’m not exactly stoked to be watching him.

Ow.

“Phillies pitcher Jamie Moyer will require season-ending surgery to repair two torn muscles in his left groin and one in his lower left abdominal region. Moyer had sustained all three injuries in the seventh inning of Tuesday’s 7-4 win over the Astros. He told team doctor Michael Ciccotti he felt a sharp pain on his inner left thigh after throwing his final pitch of the game.”

Ow ow.

“Moyer fell off the mound after throwing a pitch that ended the seventh inning of Tuesday’s game and then limped off the mound with the help of catcher Paul Bako.

Dr. Ciccotti said rest would not completely repair the tears, but expects that surgery and the rehab that will follow will enable Moyer, who followed up with specialist Dr. Bill Myers, to be ready for spring training next year. “It’s not the type of injury you can really well-treat non-operatelively in order for him to get back to pitch at the level that he would want to be pitching at,” Dr. Ciccotti said. “It’s one that is really best treated surgically. And Jamie has all the qualities that you need to get back in terms of focus and dedication.”"

I think Morrow looks sharp enough to win a game.

Does anyone agree?

by Ef the yankees on Sep 30, 2009 8:10 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

Win? Sure.

Game day is showing an awful lot of balls this inning though, so I don’t know how deep he gets. I was getting irrational hopes after the first two innings.

Why?

I doubt he had dreams of playing in Japan— IIRC, he didn’t much like it once he got there. I;m not even sure he finished out the year.

by msb on Sep 30, 2009 8:44 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

You're probably right.

It’s just that if I know something about baseball I assume most other people know it too so it seems odd when they don’t.
