Can the evil empire tread water long enough to get health?
I just do not see this team falling too far belorw .500 even with the rash of injuries.

With this lineup we are playing now, we will be somewhere in the neighborhood of .400 when we start getting everyone back and I just dont think this team even when healthy is good enough to overcome that and make the playoffs. And ARod is done. Like done done. Ill be stunned if he ever hit 20 HRs again. Tex has declined every year. Ichiro is a below average player at this point. Youk is going to have a DL stint. Jeter is a year older and coming off a nasty injury. Catcher is an offensive black hole. This team is just way too flawed to overcome the early rash of injuries IMO.

who could possibly hate the Yankees?
Wow. What the Yankees are doing so far is amazing. They might have half their team on the DL, but there they are in first place in the AL East....much better than even I expected. Wells has been awesome for us and Mariano just keeps racking up those saves. Keep it up Yanks!
Tony Bosch to surrender to authorities today, will plead guilty to drug distribution conspiracy
T.J. Quinn of ESPN reports that Tony Bosch, the founder and honcho of Biogenesis and the man who was the star witness in the enforcement action which led to Alex Rodriguez‘s year-long suspension, will surrender to the Drug Enforcement Agency this morning. He will eventually plead guilty to a conspiracy to distribute steroids. Quinn notes that the charges will not be limited to his interaction with baseball players. Rather, they will include charges that he distributed steroids to minors as well.
As Quinn also notes — and as was widely reported last year — Major League Baseball got Bosch to cooperate with its investigation of A-Rod by striking a deal with him. That deal, detailed in the recently-released book about the Biogenesis case, “Blood Sport,” was reached over drinks at a Miami dive bar. It includes a promise from Major League Baseball that it would vouch for Bosch to any law enforcement agency which might threaten him with arrest. The agreement reads as follows
**** the Yankees and the Yankee fans! Go Sox!
Sox had their minute in the sun. That's all over now. Winning games 10-9 couldn't last forever.
At least you got to wipe the stench of Bill Buckner off of your franchise. Was fun while it lasted.
