Bobby “Spring Training Is Overated” Abreu just tripled and Alex Rodriguez crushed a low fastball off the batter’s eye in center.
4-4 in the sixth if you’re not watching on YES.

Don’t let that A-Rod homer ruin your Saturday night, Peter.
yanks are going to need all the offense they can muster in april. makes you realize how important a-rod is to this team. he takes one swing and ties the game. we’ll miss his bat next season.
Peter, do they play more than 10-11 innings in ST games? It doesn’t make sense to run through a bullpen for 18 innings in a meaningless game.
The trade worth watching for this year is the one Cashman pulls off to (1) put the A-Rod saga behind us forever, and (2) solidify his place as the best GM of our time.
A-Rod to his home town Marlins, along with a pile of cash and a pitcher named Pavano, and maybe a few righthanded relievers, for Miggy Cabrera and Dontrelle Willis.
Did Mussina make it through his outing healthy? I find it a real thrill these days when we make it through a 24-hour period without losing a starting pitcher.
Hurray!! Bruney had no walks!
we need some consolation.. pLease Curt Schilling break your right arm coming out of the bathtub.
Schilling — how about some rare disease that makes his vocal cords stop working?
This horrific pitching situation is why you can’t afford to have a 1st baseman who cannot hit! The Yanks will need each spot in the order to be a legit threat, and they’ll need a ton of runs to win many of these games.
Horrific? I’d hardly describe it that way. Igawa and Pavano can probably be league-average, assuming they stay on the field. Rasner or Karstens can do the same. Pettitte looks outstanding, and Mussina is getting there. With our offense, and considering that Minky can take a walk, we’ll be fine. Plus, we have an extremely deep bullpen with spare parts in AAA in case a few pitchers don’t work out. Chris Britton, who was the second-best pitcher in the Baltimore pen last year, is a hell of a backup plan. The Yankees basically need quality starts, then they can turn it over to the pen. Stop panicking.
The Yankees only play 10 innnings in Spring Training. The Reds game I was at stopped after 10 with the two teams still tied.
the yankees aren’t trading arod anywhere. he has a full no trade clause. how come people don’t understand that?
yeah, but i sure like thurman’s idea way better than the supposed trade rumors with the Angels …
