George Steinbrenner please call Ron Polk

[go24]

Hey Mr. Steinbrenner, you need to talk to RP. He'll help your feelings about the lackluster play of your high-priced team.

You know they don't call it "a game of inches" for nothing!

Ron will tell you, "Hey, that's baseball". This will help you to accept poor performance and underachievement. You'll feel much better

dont be pickin on them yanks, GH22 takes that personal, especially after they got spanked by boston last year

[Greenhead22]

Boston didn't spank the yanks, the yanks spanked themselves.

[hillhunter]

[chopper30]

Probably the Braves

They'll choke........either way. They cannot win the big one with Bobby Cox as manager. I could careless about all the div championships he's got.

Well, there some truth to that comment. However, that still doesn't excuse Steinbrener's attempt at buying champoinships and not succeeding.

We will see. I predict the AL East is actually going to be a race this year...and I'm not counting on the AL wild card to come out of this division.

New York has serious pitching and defensive holes. Georgie Porgie can have as many come to Jesus meetings as he wants, he can't throw a curve and he can't make Bernie Williams young again. The Evil Empire will only be able to strengthen one of these two weaknesses by pulling a trade out of their hat before the deadline. And that's only if they get lucky.

Baltimore is a newcomer to this stage, but they too have serious problems in their pitching staff. They'll usually get about five good innings and then the wheels come off, in a spectacular fashion. The O's also need more run production out of their lineup if they want to stay competitive. Isn't Sosa hitting about .240? Their lack of experience in competing for a pennant will hurt them down the stretch.

The Red Sox are winning games now and have finally managed to pass the Orioles for the division lead. But, as of today, that lead was only 2 1/2 games. It should be more since Baltimore has been playing such crappy baseball lately. There are real concerns of the BoSox peaking too early. If Boston is to keep its hold on the lead in the East, they'll need better pitching. The most explosive lineup in baseball has been keeping them in games, but you've got to worry when you win lots of your games 12-10. You know what they say happens to good hitting when it faces good pitching. The return of Schilling should help anchor a rotation that is crying for a leader. Wells, Wakefield, and Arroyo know how to win, but with the departure of Pedro, this is Schilling's staff and he has to lead it.

If Boston is still in the hunt when mid-August rolls around, look for them to bear down and squeeze a pennant by the skin of their chowder-covered teeth. The Yankees start to come around and make it a race. Once again, there will be major overhauls in the Bronx during the offseason. Baltimore will fade into the rearview as the season progresses. They just don't have the talent or more importantly, the experience, to hang with Boston and New York for an entire season.
