The Yankees lost ground last night as they fell to the Rays. Darrell Rasner seems headed out of the rotation

————

For you Giants fans: The G-Men opened up with a victory against the Native Americans of Washington. Mike Dougherty has the story.

Sam Borden writes that the Giants need the Eli Manning they saw in the postseason.

    Only a stroke of GENIUS would remove BOTH RAZZ and PONTOON from the rotation…..Pete, Can you offer to pitch in Sir Sidney’s spot ?….I’ll toe the rubber for the RazzSchmeister….K ?

    How on earth did Rasner stay in the rotation so long? Haven’t we known for months that anyone would have been a better choice? Amazing. Just think about the impact that a 15-5 record from someone like Santana would have had on this team instead of Rasner (and yes, he would have replaced Rasner). Good thing that Cashman decided to keep the ever productive Melky and super stud prospect Hughes…

    Pete, they’re not the Washington National Indians, they’re the Redskins. :rolleyes:

    Getting Rasner and Ponson out of the rotation now, is too little, too late. It’s something that should have been done at the all star break.

    How many more times do we have to look at this miserable LOSER Rasner? And once again, this gutless, pathetic, miserable team has taken on the personality of their manager, LIFELESS. (Unless of course he’s talking to the press, acting like a bully) Kazmir is a great pitcher, but not Sandy Koufax.

    “Resting” Matsui??? I thought we were getting Billy Martin, and instead we got Stump Merrill.

    Not to hate on Sam Borden, but an article about how Eli Manning needs to be “the right version of himself” is honestly one of the most boring and least insightful things I’ve ever read, and as a “side-by-side comparison,” I’m tossing “See Spot Run” into the mix. Of course he doesn’t have to be better than Favre, but he better be if they meet in the playoffs…Keep up the good work, Sam?
