Pete,

You said:

“Cervelli is 0 for 4? I thought he had to play every day because he was so much better than Posada?”

Are you kidding, Pete? Have you even been reading your own blog?! I haven’t read anyone saying that they think Cervelli should be in the lineup for his bat.

Perhaps you could provide me with even a single example if you think I’m mistaken.

Rconn and CB,

You say that people are taking shots at Posada. Trisha says she hasn’t seen any examples, and I didn’t notice any either (although I certainly didn’t read every post).

Perhaps you might provide a few examples of people taking shots at Posada?

I disagree on your Cerveli assesment, Pete. Cerveli may have been 0-4, but the team has won the last two starts he’s had, and his battery mates have been excellent. That’s what should matter. Winning.

pat,

I saw that pic. It’s so eery. Was watching the highlights and the mets crew called the clouds “biblical”, certainly looks that way in the picture.

GB I got to admit I wanted him here, b/c his bat had the numbers that was as well as any other FA. Although now after reading that WOW + 1 to Yankees mgmt.

Nick. Really? Taking something too seriously? That has only happened to me roughly 2,037 times, hence my insomnia. Hell, besides the great baseball chatter here, you, Mel, Gb7 were great to chat with during some long nights. That is why I stay so loyal to this site.

Over the winter and all spring, there were a lot of people crying about the Yanks not signing Milton Bradley. You should be happy that the Yankee brass is smarter than you are.

That’s harsh, dennis, especially after I was a good person and didn’t bet the Pro Bowl this year after I said I wouldn’t.

pat was right. I was in a good place in Pittsburg and I thought I could go home from there but I had to take a side trip to Petaluma.

But the edge came from taking something too seriously, which is always a mistake.

Nick.

You were not yourself today! Very funny as always but you had an edge.

It was like you lost the over in the pro bowl.
