Heres the thing I'm willing to pay high prices to see a Yankee team that's the best but paying High prices to see a cost cutting budget conscious team

I'll say this again I've never seen such a debacle for a team in the ALCS. For the person who asked if A-Rod would be on the roster for the World Series I would say maybe but he would absolutely not get 1 AB so actually he probably wouldn't.

People see through this shyt though everyone I talked to thats a Yankee fan is up in arms about this and the callers on the FAN seem to be aswell It makes the Yankee organization look horrible.

 

[The War Report]

Larry Bowa and Sean Casey criticizing Joe for leaving Granderson out of the lineup. Talking about Grandy hit 40 HRs and played 160 games and shyt.


Bowa rationalizing that Granderson would just "run into one" and that Joe should stick with A Rod and Granderson stinking it up for the whole 4 game sweep basically. At the end of the day Joe needs to see results and these two fukks aren't producing any.

 

[Methodical]

They never postponed a game when it wasn't raing. If it rains then posepne the game. This is kind of pissing me off...this is bullsh!t.


They know what are they're doing?

Over all, there has been little overt sympathy expressed by the Yankees for their troubled third baseman, their expensive albatross, which is really the root of the underlying tension.


They apparently blame Rodriguez for the 10-year contract that will ultimately cost at least $275 million — unless Miami or some other team can be talked into picking up a small percentage in a trade and the Yankees not only swallow the rest, but have it count against their payroll for revenue-sharing purposes.


But if Rodriguez is not one to easily feel sorry for, whatever in-house resentment there is for him and his contract is misplaced and grossly unfair.


He didn’t force the Yankees to re-sign him. Rodriguez, in fact, provided them an airtight excuse to sever all ties when he opted out of his original deal during the 2007 World Series. Be it Hank Steinbrenner acting alone or with encouragement from brother Hal and others, a disastrous decision was made because they believed Rodriguez — then considered to be the likely future and clean home run champion — was a potential cash cow.


They even had the audacity to officially announce the deal on the day George Mitchell released the contents of his long investigation into baseball’s steroids culture — the sort of cheesy, transparent call for attention that Rodriguez had long been known for. All things considered, the events leading to where they are now might convince a few folks to think the inscription on that A-Rod Yankees tombstone should actually read: They deserved each other.

The hilarous thing is there trying to play us for fools saying Chavez had really good AB's and that there trotting out the best lineup.

The Yankees are doing themselves a disservice . They trying to put it on performance yet Chavez has done nothing . They benched him before he ever got the girls number so it's not that .
It is nothing more than trying to get him to give up his no trade then get out from under his contract .
