Agreed. And yet Girardi had my vote for coach of the year last year... Let's hope that is spilling over to this year.
Dude this is the type of comment that shows you just don't know what you are talking about, like how you said the Yankees won 27 pennants.

It looks like Nova is out for the rest of year (not confirmed but very possible).

I'm sorry to see the guy get injured but he's been pretty awful so far this season and his overall inconsistency as often caused me to want to call him Phil Hughes Jr.

Nuno did great. I've always thought he had a lot of potential. But I see them limiting his innings (if he becomes the #5 starter). Fortunately, the bullpen looks really good so we can afford Nuno only going 5-6 innings. I always thought Phelps might become a starter but it looks like he'll be the long reliever. I think he's good enough to hold his own for 3-4 innings if they need him to. And as I said before, huge fan of Betances. Might be the next Mariano. Is Robertson hurt? He hasn't been closing. That other guy is. Can't think of his name.

I like our rotation a lot better than last year that's for sure. I'm worried about middle relief though!

Robertson is on the DL until tomorrow.

Nuno doesn't overpower anyone but he's always around the plate. He's what Sabathia is trying to be, a "crafty left-hander".

I think Nuno can give more to the Yankees than Nova.

You can continue to harp on pennants and World Series all you want.

All the injuries last year and Girardi still had team in it until the end. It was commended by many already.

Glad to see "Tex" hit his 2nd HR... And this one would have been gone anywhere.

Out of everyone on the Yankee's roster I've been most concerned about his production or lack-there-of after the wrist injury/surgery. If he could get back to hitting .250 with 25 HR's and his typical good OBP and defense, it would go a long way to helping hold this infield together.

Mark Teixeira has just sent a text message ... "See ya"... Lol
