Well That Was Disappointing

The Good

Teixeira's wrist appears to be okay.

The Bad

Rough game for the Yankees last night, as they lost 8-3 to a team they played so well against last week.  The offense has fallen flat over the past 3 games, but I appreciate Teixeira's now-customary solo homerun during blowouts. 

The Ugly

Although the offense isn't really doing much, the pitching over the past three games has been abysmal.  Whitley had been pitching well, but yesterday he went 3.1 innings and gave up 8 runs.  That is a tough deficit to come back from.

Just Don't Harm the Babies!

Despite the mini-losing streak following our mini-win streak, Teixeira's solo homerun ensured that the babies would not be harmed by the Yankees offense. 

Brett Gardner 6hr = $12
Alfonso Soriano 6hr = $12
Kelly Johnson 4hr = $8
Carlos Beltran 7hr = $14
Dean Anna 1hr = $2
Brian McCann 8hr = $16
Yangervis Solarte 6hr = $12
Mark Teixeira 13hr = $26
John Ryan Murphy 1hr = $2
Jacoby Ellsubry 4hr = $8
Brian Roberts 2hr = $4
Derek Jeter 1hr = $2
Zoilo Almonte 1hr = $2

Total 60hr = $120

I applaud that you guys are still blogging. Covering this team must be a labor of love.

I don't know how, but I sometimes feel like this team is more boring than last years team, and last years team was 60% bench players.

But they were scrappy and gritty bench players who played the game the right way.
