They guy has piched 12 innings in seven games over the last 32 games and in five of them the game was one sided when he came in. I'd rather keep both Pena and Ransom or add Duncan or some RH bat than a 12th pitcher who really isn't needed. SJ —

Not everyone is above average, or there'd be no average, ya know? I suspect there's no "outrage" about the stadium, because Steinbrenner never made a secret out of his desire to have a new one at some point. There is some consolation that the new stadium is still in the Bronx and not lost in the Meadowlands (unreachable) somewhere and that it does pay homage to the old stadium. The structure itself sure doesn't look like it needed to be replaced, but I'll tell ya - the new stadium, with whatever its flaws may be, is comfortable and modern. Did anyone participate in the Save Gate 2 activities yesterday? There is nothing wrong with Swisher being an average player who can contribute a lot to the team.
