If you package Melky and a solid arm in minors you can get back a quality non star 28ish Right Fielder. Lets put our demented heads together and think of who we can get back!

For this season we should shop Melky and another minor league arm for a solid Right Fielder with a strong arm. Not looking for a superstar. Delmon Young’s stock is way down and he plays a decent right field but not sure he would be a fit for two reasons. His numbers are dreadful and his head may not be on right. But there has to be a decent right fielder that can fit into the mix and than we can put Swish on bench. Put Gardner and Austin Jackson in a platoon in a month or so from now. And platoon Damon and Nady in Left Field. Our outfield is awful defensively and is not producing offensively!

The Yanks, obviously, are a much better team than the last two weeks would indicate. Strong, deep starting staff, deep line up, and a questionable but improving pen.

Are they a great team? No.

Are they a very good team? Yes.

Can they win it all with this team? I think so.

I think they would improve their chances significantly if they had a credible manager.

Oh we’ll be allright! In fact I get happier and happier every day while the Sox keep winning and the Yanks keep losing!!!!!!

We’ll be just fine up in Boston if this keeps up. Don’t you go worring about us! 10 up on the Yanks by July 1st will make the 4th of July weekend just oh so much fun!

If they make it to the WS,playing FUNDAMENTAL BASEBALL is a must with The NL. I say this because the Cards are hot now. If they happen to represent the NL,LaRussa is all about,small ball,and good old fashioned manufacturing of runs.

Mo hasn’t been used in a week,puzzling.

Wang seems to be well on his way to his old self.Even though we lost,because of No run support.

5 games out in a matter of two weeks wow.

Nobody is hitting. Jeter is back to being a GIDP machine, Cano can’t hit with RISP, Posada has stuck out 8 times in the past week on balls in the dirt, Damon is hurt again, can’t hit, and can’t catch a routine flyball that cost him a game, and Nick Swisher doesn’t have a spot in the order where his weaknesses are exposed.

ALL of that is Arod’s fault too?

He should just shut it down, have the second operation, and call it a season. This way, he’s 100% next season.

David Ortiz hasn’t hit all year and the Red Sox find ways to win every night. This team dosen’t.

Why should Arod be the only guy taking heat for this futility? Last I checked, 24 other guys are in uniform.

If they can’t get it done, it doesn’t matter what Arod does because they won’t win with only 1 guy contributing.
