• Taking one for the team

  
  A Cardboard Problem — Authority: 133
  Ever wonder whats in a hot pack on eBay? I may be one of the few and buying one of these packs is also giving the pack searchers fodder for continuing to do so. However, I just wanted to see. I just wanted to take a shot. I bought a hot pack of SP Authentic on eBay a few weeks ago. There are five cards in the pack. ...

• A Vote Against Orlando Hudson

  
  The Spot Starters — Authority: 122
  I have always like Orland Hudson .  He is a good player and has been for about a decade.  Not only is he a solid player, he is rumored to be one of the best clubhouse guys in all of baseball.  You’re hard-pressed to find anyone who doesn’t like the O-Dog.  That being said, I hope the Tigers pass on him and ...

• Yankees Batting Order Past, Present and Future

  
  Zell's Pinstripe Blog — Authority: 143
  Stop, think back 5 years, where were you, what were you doing? I’m pretty sure if you’re over the age of 25, you’ll probably remember. Now think about your favorite baseball team, can you tell me how many people that will be in the starting lineup this year that was in 2005? I bet you [...]

• Who should start in center?

  
  Sliding Into Home: A Yankees Blog — Authority: 525
  Right now the plan is slotting Granderson in center field and having Brett Gardner play left. Cashman even said about a week ago that Nick Johnson could see some time in left. But if it were up to you would you have Brett Gardner or Curtis Granderson play center? Chad Jennings took a look at this question and asks ...

  MLB Rumors - MLBTradeRumors.com — Authority: 747
  A few Saturday night links to peruse.... The Braves outfield trio pales in comparison to those of their division rivals, according to David OBrien of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution (via Twitter).

  Recently S coop Jackson of ESPN got a chance to interview new Yankees Centerfielder, Curtis Granderson and this is what he had to say: Scoop Jackson : Any nerves? Curtis Granderson : Always. Jackson : But a different type of nerves. Granderson : Naw, I don’t think it’s anything different to it. This is ...

• Yet another Curtis Granderson interview

  
  River Avenue Blues — Authority: 623
  Scoop Jackson sat down with Curtis Granderson , the Yanks’ new centerfielder or leftfielder, depending on which side of the fence you sit on. Scoop really seems to push the “how will you handle the pressure, how will you deal with the media” crap, but C-Grizzie pretty much blows it off. Check it out, the more ...

• The Secret to Playing in New York

  
  Mike Silva's New York Baseball Digest — Authority: 146
  There is always debate about whether playing in New York is different than other places. Some scoff at the “New York type of player” since, if they produce, the city will love them. Maybe so, but how do you explain someone like Ed Whitson failing here, while Paul O’ Neill revived his career, and thrived, playing ...

• I resolve to be a better Mets fan in 2010

  
  Mets Guy in Michigan — Authority: 109
  Tonight the ball drops – both in New York and here in Grand Rapids – marking the end of a year that I’m really not all that sad to see go. A new year marks a new opportunity to take stock in what we as Mets fans think, do and go about our business. We Mets fans survived 2009, and it was rough. We can get 2010 ...

• An Interesting Interview with Curtis Granderson

  
  Generation Third — Authority: 127
  Check out this article from ESPN’s Skoop Jackson.  Its a recap of an interview he had with new Yankees centerfielder Curtis Granderson. The interview is very well done.  I don’t remember seeing Jackson’s name before now, but he’s a good writer. Jackson peppers Granderson a lot about how life will be ...

• Random, Non-Coherent Thoughts about LF and other things

  
  This Purist Bleeds Pinstripes — Authority: 418
  So it’s been a while since I’ve updated this regularly, hasn’t it? Well, with the New Year upon us, it seems like a good time to get back into it, no? Anyway, here are some very non-coherent thoughts about the goings on of the Yankees and the baseball world. Left field, left field, I love you, left field… ...

• Who Patrols Death Valley in 2010?

  
  Mike Silva's New York Baseball Digest — Authority: 146
  Bryan Hoch on MLB.com wrote recently that the Yankees might be bluffing with their left field scenario. We can debate if Brett Gardner or Jamie Hoffmann will really be in left field on Opening Day (I tend to think it’s a lot like after the ‘05 season, when they insisted that Bubba Crosby would be the Opening ...

• DeRosa Signs with SF, Yanks Options Open

  
  WCWP SPORTS — Authority: 132
  From the NY Daily News : The Yankees viewed free agent Mark DeRosa as potential help in left field and an unbeatable super-utility option. But DeRosa, a Bergen Catholic product, agreed to a preliminary two-year deal with the San Francisco Giants Monday night, The Associated Press reported. The agreement is to be ...

• Dye Is Great Fit for Yanks

  
  Mike Silva's New York Baseball Digest — Authority: 146
  When I talked about the Yankees need for a fifth hitter I didn’t put Jermaine Dye into the equation. With the budget, that was reiterated by Brian Cashman, I wasn’t sure he would fit into their plans. I saw more of an Austin Kearns or Reed Johnson type. Rumors have come out the Yankees are interested in Dye, which ...

• Mets, Payroll, and Going the Extra Mile

  
  Mike Silva's New York Baseball Digest — Authority: 146
  One of the common themes over the last decade is the Mets fail to “do what it takes” in order to compete. I have been a critic of what I will call “Plan B” mentality over the years. In 2001 they failed to capitalize on their NL pennant and passed on Alex Rodriguez, a player that desperately wanted to come to ...

From losing some close games to losing some of our closest heroes, we look forward to 2010 with a hope that things will be better for our city and its teams. Lions – When the year began ...

• Concern About the Yanks #5 Hitter?

  
  Mike Silva's New York Baseball Digest — Authority: 146
  Who will bat fifth for the Yankees? It was a point brought up by one of the comments on the site. I speculated about the Yankees lineup over a week ago that Jorge Posada would be the guy to protect Alex Rodriguez in the lineup. Posada fits the criteria, but last year he only played in 111 games. You assume the ...

• Should Granderson Play Left Field?

  
  Mike Silva's New York Baseball Digest — Authority: 146
  The guys at NoMass brought up an interesting point last week: How about Curtis Granderson in Left Field? Let’s assume (big assumption) that Brett Gardner is going to be one of the three everyday outfielders. Should he patrol center while Curtis Granderson moves over to the corner in left? If you base it on UZR ...

  On Christmas Day way back in 2001, Hideki Matsui became the highest paid player in Japanese baseball history, agreeing to a one-year contract worth $4.7MM with the Yomiuri Giants. In his seven-year (and counting) Major League Baseball career, Matsui has never earned less than $6MM annually. Lets see whats being ...
