    Ok, LoA, whatever you say.

      Here in St Louis I thought the title meant the Yankees were regaining strength to be able to compete with the Cardinals for best record .

                The Yanks starting pitching looks VERY shaky. It hasn't looked this bad since before their amazing run began. If it doesn't get straightened out, Steinbrenner will be angry in October again.

                    That's alright...now that's we've had 6 straight wins, we needed that loss so that we could stop worrying about when the streak would end.

                    We're still on top of the Wild Card...right now...and we have 2 more of Blue Jays, 3 against the Tigers, and then the all important series' against Anaheim, Oakland, and Texas.

                    Oh, and we may be 6 behind the Yanks...but we still have 6 to play against them.

                          If ya think the Yanks are scared, you are delusional TEF.

                              the question of the week is, how does a scrub like Enrique Wilson get a job in the league - the guy cant hit, cant run, and cant field. how is it that they get a major league contract?

                                He's a switch hitter who can (supposedly) play all over the infield. Thus, Joe Torre loves him. Joe's a good manager, but he has his faults.

                                I'd prefer it if Miguel Cairo got 99% of the 2nd base playing time. But Joe will run Enrique out there occasionally and there isn't a thing to be done about it.

                                Imran - yes, the starting pitching is terrible. Not just shaky. Terrible. Pull up Mike Mussina's stat page on ESPN. The man has an ERA over 5. Vasquez pitched well for a while but lately has been bad. Brown... eh. If he's healthy and pitching against a bad team he looks great. Otherwise (hurting and/or pitching against a contender) he looks like a mediocre 39-yr old pitcher. Jon Lieber is similar, and sure as hell isn't going to scare anyone in the postseason.

                                The best starting pitcher the Yankees have is El Duque, part duex. That's pretty damning (I love El Duque, but come on!). Thank goodness for Flash & Mo.

                                Like I said before, unless all of a sudden Mussina, Brown and Vasquez morph back into the pitchers they're supposed to be, the Yanks are due for a 1st round exit.
