    Kevin Maas?

  2. Betsy June 26th, 2011 at 11:47 am

    Aww, I loved Mike Stanley

  3. GreenBeret7 June 26th, 2011 at 11:50 am

    Whatever they do, they can’t let George Fraiser pitch. He’ll give up the winning run.

  4. Rich in NJ June 26th, 2011 at 11:51 am

    It would be great to see Nova pitch consistently at a high level. I’m not expecting what he did last time out, but GB and K would be nice.

  5. Dj June 26th, 2011 at 11:51 am

    Graeme Lloyd still looks super thin.

  6. West Coast Yankee Fan June 26th, 2011 at 11:51 am

    What have we here, the injured, “limping” A-Rod playing third base?

  7. 98NYY June 26th, 2011 at 11:51 am

    A-team playing on a Sunday…nice change

  8. GreenBeret7 June 26th, 2011 at 11:53 am

    Hoping the are bringing back Jim “Kitty” Kaat.

  9. Mike_Boston June 26th, 2011 at 11:53 am

    For those out of market folks are there any options to watch the festivities before 2pm?

  10. beedogs June 26th, 2011 at 11:53 am

    Wish the lineup could stay this way for the rest of the year. Unfortunately, at some point GIDPeter will show up to reclaim the leadoff spot. :(

  11. Rich in NJ June 26th, 2011 at 11:53 am

    .333 .427 .613 1.040

    A-Rod in June. Who gives a sh!t if he limps?

    He’s still the most important position player on the team.

  12. Dj June 26th, 2011 at 11:53 am

    David Wells still looks like he could go out and pitch, but I guess he wasn’t in such good shape while he was playing anyway.

    I was at David Cone’s perfect game, seeing that footage still gives me chills.

  13. GreenBeret7 June 26th, 2011 at 11:54 am

    Joey, “You Coulda Made Us Proud”.

  14. West Coast Yankee Fan June 26th, 2011 at 11:55 am

    Sarcasm Rich.

  15. Against All Odds June 26th, 2011 at 11:57 am

    Watching Old Timer’s Day

    Will Wells punch Torre?

  16. GreenBeret7 June 26th, 2011 at 11:57 am

    Somebody needs to remind Kay that the Yanks didn’t sweep the ’61 Cinncy team in the Series. 4 games to 1, but Hector could certainly hit.

  17. Tank June 26th, 2011 at 11:58 am

    Do they really need to bring back these marginal players to draw out this ceremony?

  18. West Coast Yankee Fan June 26th, 2011 at 11:59 am

    Old Timer’s Day is great, I love seeing all these guys again. Bernie will bring the house down.

  19. Betsy June 26th, 2011 at 11:59 am

    Graham Lloyd – what an amazing pickup he turned into – another guy I just loved.

  20. GreenBeret7 June 26th, 2011 at 11:59 am

    Mel Stottlemyre is one of the most under rated pitcher of the 60s and in Yankee history.

  21. West Coast Yankee Fan June 26th, 2011 at 12:01 pm

    Guidry. 25-3 – 1.74 it’s still hard to believe.

  22. Betsy June 26th, 2011 at 12:01 pm

    Lou!

  23. GreenBeret7 June 26th, 2011 at 12:02 pm

    The one player they need to convince to return is Tony Kubek….before it’s too late.

  24. Betsy June 26th, 2011 at 12:03 pm

    I wish he were still in pinstripes…..

  25. West Coast Yankee Fan June 26th, 2011 at 12:04 pm

  26. West Coast Yankee Fan June 26th, 2011 at 12:05 pm

  27. Betsy June 26th, 2011 at 12:05 pm

    Bernie!

  28. Betsy June 26th, 2011 at 12:07 pm

    Fans showing the love to Bernie :)

  29. GreenBeret7 June 26th, 2011 at 12:07 pm

    Will miss not seeing Bill Skowron. Funniest story concerning “The Moose” was how he got his nickname. The day he was born, his grandfather gave him the name…not because of his size…but, because grandpa thought he looked like Mussolini.

  30. GreenBeret7 June 26th, 2011 at 12:08 pm

    Little Luis arroyo

  31. GreenBeret7 June 26th, 2011 at 12:09 pm

    Arroyo….Ford called him the “Lifesaver”

  32. AZ88 June 26th, 2011 at 12:10 pm

    Any sign of Angel Berroa at Old Timers Day at Yankee Stadium?

  33. GreenBeret7 June 26th, 2011 at 12:10 pm

    There is The Real Moose. Great that he made it

  34. West Coast Yankee Fan June 26th, 2011 at 12:10 pm

    Touching moment.

  35. Against All Odds June 26th, 2011 at 12:11 pm

    here comes Torre

  36. Betsy June 26th, 2011 at 12:11 pm

    Torre now

  37. West Coast Yankee Fan June 26th, 2011 at 12:12 pm

    J O E T O R R E !!!!

    Listen to the ovation!!!! The greatest!!!

  38. Against All Odds June 26th, 2011 at 12:13 pm

    Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  39. Melk Man June 26th, 2011 at 12:13 pm

    Did that one guy in the crowd who looks like Russell Martin with sunglasses make signs for every old timer? lol

  40. Betsy June 26th, 2011 at 12:14 pm

    That was really cool………….the fans had never had a chance to say goodbye, so now they got a chance to say hello again

  41. GreenBeret7 June 26th, 2011 at 12:15 pm

    I guess that it will be a tough day for Torre when he has to fine and suspend Cashman for tampering (Gordon) after the day is over.

  43. bwyanks214 June 26th, 2011 at 12:17 pm

    did anyone notice Joe Torre’s right arm?….is he okay?

  44. GreenBeret7 June 26th, 2011 at 12:17 pm

    Bartolo Colon should have used this day to do his first rehab start.

  45. Betsy June 26th, 2011 at 12:18 pm

    Odds, yes it was…….and he was clearly touched. Bernie got a huge ovation as well – not a surprise.

    No Roland sheldon, Phil Linz, Jim Bouton, Bobby Richardson, Ralph Terry?

    BJK,

    However Arod is again in the starting lineup today despite your ramblings about risking him to injury.

    —————————–

    My ramblings? Wow, OK.

    You’re obviously not a big picture type guy Crawdaddy, so no sense discussing this any further. Enjoy the games.

  53. 108 stitches June 26th, 2011 at 12:26 pm

    Greatly missed is the Voice himself, Bob Sheppard.
    All the old timers were announced by him during their careers.

  54. West Coast Yankee Fan June 26th, 2011 at 12:26 pm

    No one does a ceremony like the Yankees do. Not even close.

  55. Melk Man June 26th, 2011 at 12:28 pm

    Nice seeing the old contemporaries mingling – Giambi and Torre, A-Rod and sweet Lou, etc.

  56. Betsy June 26th, 2011 at 12:28 pm

    I love hearing the lyrics to the Yankees’ theme song………..but then, I just love the song period.

  57. Dj June 26th, 2011 at 12:30 pm

    Aw, first pitch by Gene Monahan…totally classy.

  58. Bronx Jeers June 26th, 2011 at 12:31 pm

  60. GreenBeret7 June 26th, 2011 at 12:34 pm

    Giambi with Torre can only mean one thing. He has some clubhouse dirt for Torre’s next book.

    Only the Yankees would do this for their trainer. What class. Just awesome.

  63. LGY June 26th, 2011 at 12:35 pm

    Disappointed I didn’t make it out to the park today to boo Torre.

  64. GreenBeret7 June 26th, 2011 at 12:37 pm

    Yankees will present Monahan with his own 4 well drive ambulance for the farm

    as if working for the Yankees isn’t great enough, they give the best retirement package ever

  71. Against All Odds June 26th, 2011 at 12:47 pm

    Very classy by the Yankee organization. They may not always do things perfectly but you have to love what they are doing right now.

  72. Melk Man June 26th, 2011 at 12:48 pm

    Wow. I stepped out for 15 minutes and they are still giving him gifts? amazing

  76. West Coast Yankee Fan June 26th, 2011 at 12:48 pm

    You can see on their faces the affection and love the Yankee players have for Gene. What a wonderful moment.

  77. BoJo June 26th, 2011 at 12:52 pm

    Those aren’t farewell gifts—it’s hush money!

    :-)

    I wish Gene good health and a long life..and will miss him greatly.

  78. Captain Clutch June 26th, 2011 at 12:53 pm

    This shouldn’t surprise anyone….

    “I can’t stand the Yankees, okay,” Showalter said. “That stays between us right here. I don’t really care if they know, I think they can figure it out.”

    “Fearful of them? Afraid to play them? I look at it as an opportunity. Once we get better, it’s going to snowball and they are going to hate coming into this ballpark, believe me.”

  79. Betsy June 26th, 2011 at 12:57 pm

    Whatever, Buck…….. and believe me, the Yankees aren’t crying in their milk because you don’t like them.

    LOL He’s probably saying this just to make Baltimore fans happy- he sounds like a fool.

    He’s just trying to get the fanbase rallied there. Maybe they will draw 20,000 fans next weekend. The O’s might be improving but they are going to have a difficult time every getting out of the cellar of the AL East. Until then, I’m sure Buck will instruct his players to hit more Yankees and then watch the next batter hit a bomb. Great times.

  81. West Coast Yankee Fan June 26th, 2011 at 1:00 pm

    Great to hear the Straw man just now be so effusive in his praise, singling out Joe Torre as the most important reason for the Yankees championship run.

  82. AldotheApache June 26th, 2011 at 1:00 pm

    I now think Buck Showalter did the Yankees a huge favor by leaving when he did.

    Wait until they get better? Judging by the current last place record, it’s going to be a while.

  83. Tyler June 26th, 2011 at 1:00 pm

    I tried looking at the AL East standing but my scroll down button on my computer wasn’t working… Anybody know where the Red Sox are? I could only see the Yanks on my computer screen…

    Moose Skowron (No. 14) must be very sick not to attend. Let’s hope he’s not the next black armband to be worn by the team. He was one of the pallbearers at The Mick’s funeral in ’95.

    Don’t care. He’s still useless and from California.

    LOL! It’s amusing to see the three legged one trying to demean California the most spectacularly beautiful and dynamic state in the nation. The jealousy is palpable; but understandable given he resides in the hot and humid red-neck hell that Florida.
