  6. m March 24th, 2010 at 12:04 pm

    OMG. I wouldn’t even know where to begin.

    I can take a guess at #2. But I won’t in order to preserve the integrity of the contest. Good luck, guys.

    pat,

    I wonder if MLB will step in and tell the Yankees they have to choose Aceves for the job? His starts will be over in 2 hours. :P

  7. Peter R March 24th, 2010 at 12:04 pm

    wow nice questions. I knew the first one and had a hint about the second but no idea on #3.

  8. Patrick March 24th, 2010 at 12:05 pm

    Hope I was fast enough..

  9. Betsy -Romine wasn't built in a day March 24th, 2010 at 12:05 pm

    #2 is not Boone Logan, but I won’t give the answer away. I’m ticked off at myself, lol.

  11. Betsy -Romine wasn't built in a day March 24th, 2010 at 12:06 pm

    Oops, I wasn’t even right on #2 – I didn’t read the question properly. I got #1 at least, lol. I demand a do-over, lol

  12. Mike R. - Retire 21 March 24th, 2010 at 12:07 pm

    Is there a prize for not reading directions and messing up the contest. What an idiot! Sorry Chad. :-(

  13. Joe from Long Island March 24th, 2010 at 12:07 pm

  24. Betsy -Romine wasn't built in a day March 24th, 2010 at 12:11 pm

    I read the question wrong, JT – basically, I messed the whole thing up.

  25. GreenBeret7 March 24th, 2010 at 12:12 pm

    I don’t type fast enough to win these contests.

    The only way I’ll win is if it’s a vote for the friendliest poster on here. I’ll win hands down, I’m sure.

  26. Betsy -Romine wasn't built in a day March 24th, 2010 at 12:12 pm

    Oh well, I’ll go buy it in the stores….

  27. Chad Jennings March 24th, 2010 at 12:12 pm

  28. Patrick March 24th, 2010 at 12:13 pm

    GB7,

    Are you saying you’d win Miss Congeniality of the Lohud Yankees Blog?

    You said it, not me :)

    Ace is Bud’s choice for 5th starter. :wink:

    If you didn’t read the tweet last week, where would you even begin to look up an MLB cow milking loser?
