Well I was not entirely crazy then.... ""We're talking Edwin Encarnacion," Boone said before New York salvaged a split of a four-game series in Chicago with a 10-3 rout over the White Sox. "When you get a guy of his caliber, that's something we're excited about. He's obviously a great hitter, he has been for a long time and continues to be."" As compared to say Robert or Carlos Encarnacion I guess... Does Boone think the first name really matters? How many Encarnacion's play in the majors "Encarnacion's addition and Giancarlo Stanton's anticipated return from the injured list Tuesday impacted Clint Frazier, who was optioned to Triple-A Sunday. It will also impact playing time for Brett Gardner, who drove in four runs Sunday. "Any time you can add somebody as good as Edwin, he's a guy who's going to make us better so we look forward to getting him on board," Gardner said. "How that affects me, that's not something I'm worried about." that is impressive to say, but then Gardner knows he will still be on the team and has been for more than a decade. So its not quite the impact as on Frazier. It can be a rough business. The Rays are paying part of "the guy I can't spell" 'salary which has to be really annoying. 11 of the next 28 games we play will be against Tampa I think. That should bring Boston into the picture. sports.yahoo.com/encarnacion-expected-yankees-lineup-vs-rays-045153371--mlb.html Encarnacion isn't that bad. Try Doug Mientkiewicz. |

I know no one is trying to be rough and I make plenty of mistakes. I have been struggling with a problem that got worse again (it is why I missed being here last year). I should fit it perfectly with the Yankee pitching staff (meaning their injury issues).  Obviously pitching is our problem. Although our defense is erratic and to my eye our running the bases although I know of know way to compare the Yankees to other teams. I only watch Yankee games. 4 more pitches feeling sorry for myself and I can hit 1,000.  We need a violin smiley... You get your ass better, son. We need you around here. Whether you know it or not you keep us in check at times with with a little dose of rain on the parade, a few ants at the picnic ain’t so bad... Yhey kind of remind you you’re outside. Mistakes? Shoot. When you get right down to it, none us know much about the game. We just enjoy it... As for spelling Encarnacion, just cop out and call him EE... |

He broke his nose once back in 2006 playing catch:
New York Yankees catcher Jorge Posada broke his nose Wednesday when he was hit in the face by a ball while playing catch.
Posada was scratched from the starting lineup for Wednesday night's game against Boston, and X-rays revealed a nasal fracture. Posada was to remain in the hospital overnight and was expected to be released Thursday morning.
Yankees manager Joe Torre said Posada had minor swelling above his left eye and was bleeding from the nose but his eye socket was fine.
"It's probably going to be about five days [before he can play]," Torre said. "He can work out."
Posada was playing catch with backup catcher Kelly Stinnett when he was hit by the ball.
wonder if he beat the crap out of Stinnet... Rubbed him with his pissy hands... |

The Yankees had a second baseman last season named Walker whose first name I still don't know. Is it Todd or Neil? They also has a reliever on the team earlier this season named Joe Harvey that I called Joe Franklin the whole time he was with the team. It happens.

A guy named Joe Franklin hosted for decades a late night talk show in New York. Occasionally he had Soupy Sales as a guest, so I tuned in on these evenings when not much was going on at 1 AM. |

Edwin won me over the last game when he shortened his swing in an RBI situation and hit a single....can or will some of the younger Yankees learn the value of that?
