Is Hairston really starting in RF tonight?!
A $200M payroll and Jerry Hairston JR is their 4th OF.
If you haven’t heard, tonight’s Yankee line-up features both Jerry Hairston Jr playing right field in lieu of Nick Swisher and Jose Molina catching instead of Jorge Posada. Now, ordinarily, this would just be a bad move, an overreaction to last night’s poor offensive showing against a great pitcher. But, given the match-ups, this is borderline malpractice.

Good. If the Yanks lose tonight the series is probably over.
Seeing both Molina and JHJ in one of their WS lineups is laughable.

Girardi has really tried to overmanage this postseason
it’s ridiculous how many of his players he uses when it’s not even necessary.

Rusty is going to be our hitting coach…everyone knows that right?
I don’t know if he can or cannot do the job…but if he does, it just seems like the marketing department is making the calls….

I doubt they hire Clint Hurdle.
Do they want someone on staff with previous managerial experience? After every 3 game losing streak the fans will want Wash fired and replaced by Hurdle.

Question
Let’s say there were replay. You go to the video, see that it was a short-hop instead of caught on the fly…
What would you then do, to correct the play?

Both runners are safe, yes?
Don’t think Howard went to first, and Posada beat the throw to second.

Right
But Howard didn’t go to first because the umpire said he caught the ball on the fly (although that should have made him go to first base anyway).
by Adam J. Morris on Oct 29, 2009 10:10 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
