I was thankful for that, and I too worried that he might be sliding into a bad phase or form to indicate his most productive time with the Yanks had passed. Yesterday was encouraging on that front.

I was worried about him after his last two starts. But, the Trop aside, I’d really like to see some big-time offense.

But if we threw in Romine or even Montero instead, I could live with it. Maybe.

]]> Comment on Homage to CC by jasonheartland http://heartlandpinstripes.wordpress.com/2011/07/17/homage-to-cc/#comment-13316 Sun, 17 Jul 2011 17:56:32 +0000 http://heartlandpinstripes.wordpress.com/?p=3607#comment-13316 Glad you enjoyed Mike. I agree about CC and their free-agent signings. Mussina was terrific. Teixeira has been very good and his defense is most welcome, though as you know I have concerns about his declining average the past season and a half. I am inclined to agree about CC and some kind of renegotiated deal to preclude his opting out. Plus, he is needed all the more.

On Cashman, that seems to be the scuttlebutt, that he will leave. I wonder if all the power struggles and role of the Steinbrenners is getting to be too much for him. Who knows. I hope he doesn’t go, because I think he does a good job and I have no idea who would replace him. Plus, he seems a good counterweight to the Steinbrenners, who often bother me.

I’d guess he is.

Your commentary is always so intelligent and well considered. I wish things had gone differently for our Yanks, obviously, but for all the reasons you mentioned, Texas was the better team. The pitching was mostly awful (what happened to Robertson????) and the RISP situation was woeful. We just didn’t get it done. Sadly.

Can’t go wrong there. All the best and take care.

Hopefully that will work for people, but I will see what I might have going on before assigning that date.
