No lineup, no stache

Still no lineup posted, but there is this breaking news coming out of the Yankees clubhouse: Russell Martin has shaved the mustache.

May it rest in peace.

    Good news!

    repost:

    The ragging on Brett comment was born out of what continuously occurs here. Blaming Brett for the woes of this team when he struggles. No one says a word now because he’s on fire in all facets of his game. But if goes through another stretch where he struggles with the bat *or on the bases*, the stats and criticism will pop up. Even though he comes out of his slumps much more quickly than his teammates who earn up to 40X what he makes.

    Brett is one of the best at making the most out of the least. In that sense, he is underappreciated because he is actually giving us more than we thought he would. I don’t see how anyone can be disappointed in what he offers. *

    great news about the mustache.
    didn’t a Yankee try something similar last season? i can’t recall who that player was.

    Got to see Jesus hit the ball hard the opposite way last night in Columbus. My son got his auto before the game. That means he won’t be traded. Right?

    Yeah, that Martin ‘stache wasn’t looking too cool.

    It’s now 102 degrees in the Chicagoland area. And I’m about to go running within the hour.

    Fun stuff.

    i think they keep montero. i seriously doubt that an elite player will be available at the deadline. i think the rockies are just making headlines with this, his contract is basically free for a ml team.

    It’s about time. That thing was hideous. :)

    Now that Houston has decided to make him available I would absolutely go after Hunter Pence.

    Montero, Nunez and Phelps for Pence and Clint Barmes (to take over for Nunez as the utility IF for the remainder of the year)

    Well said, mel.

    GF, tell me about. I leave work in about a half hour and have no AC in my car. Definitely not recommended. LOL

    eboland11 Imagine Girardi is waiting for Granderson, who just strolled into clubhouse. Seems no worse for the wear after last night

  12. RiveraBlues July 21st, 2011 at 4:36 pm

    About time. That thing looked riduculous. And that is being kind.

    New Post w/lineup

    May it rest in peace burn in hell.

    FTFY.

  15. Giuseppe Franco July 21st, 2011 at 4:38 pm

    Erin,

    No AC in my Durango either. Didn’t want to pay the $80 to have it recharged when the summer is essentially half over.

    Sounded like a good idea at the time…..

    Thank you. Losing the stash was all I needed to hear.

    Nice souvenir for your son. I hope you get your wish.

    Will the ‘stache be available for parties?
