Dear East Coast Wimps – Here’s a map of quakes in Calif and along the Nevada border today…a slow day…..672 earthquakes. http://www.data.scec.org/recenteqs.html
That map isn’t per day.
i have a hurricane heading right for me.

Vols coach Pat Summitt diagnosed with Alzheimers at 59. Incredibly sad!
Yankees Here’s John Flaherty chatting with fans at today’s Yankees Universe event …. http://atmlb.com/ribLNk
pat, any word on whether Summitt plans to continue coaching? agreed. sad and tragic. It can get anybody.
Rockies claimed Wandy

Remember the huge statue yankee players gave jeter? Hope it didn’t fall on him during the #earthquake
Very sad about Pat Summitt. Lets solve that mystery asap. Maybe someone will find a clue, like yestersday’s news about ALS.
courtesy of Jimmy Buffett:
“I was out in california where I hear they have it all
They got riots, fires, mud slides
They’ve got sushi in the mall
Water bars, brontasaurs, chinese modern lust
Shake and bake life with the quake
The secrets in the crust”
ESPN reporting that she will continue to coach
If the Rockies claiming Wandy Rodriquez holds true, it proves once again that Cashman did the right thing by not biting on Ubaldo Jimenez.
Why would the Rockies pay what they’ll need to pay Wandy for the duration of his contract if Jimenez has such a team friendly contract ? Must be health issues. Cleveland gave away some top talent to get Jimenez and he hasn’t exactly shown any Cy Young material since he arrived.

says she never considered retirement.
GB
She plans on continuing coaching. She is in early stages and is on meds now as well as using mental conditioning exercises. She will be monitored closely but the Vols are supporting her continuing.
Damned. talk about being right on top of things.
eboland11 Erik Boland
Just heard an expert on cable news channel say earthquakes are much more “frequent” on the West Coast. That’s not acceptable analysis
Also, this is something that is rare here. How would Cali and Vegas react to a hurricane?

Probably the same way Texas responded to a snow storm this past winter. Badly
Imagine how good this lineup will be next year if Montero really mashes the ball.
Jeter – SS
Grandy – CF
Tex – 1B
Arod – 3B
Cano – 2B
Montero – DH
Swish – RF
Martin – C
Gardner – LF
Montero will catch 1-2 days per week.
When Montero catches Arod goes to DH and Nunez plays 3B.
If Montero is the real deal which he certainly seems to be, this lineup is scary next year.
Too bad they didn’t give Montero a chance when Arod when down this year.
I hate Jimmy Buffett. Sorry Kate.
Thanks, pat. best wishes to ms summitt.

Yeah I agree. There’s a reason why his velocity is way down
Dallas shutdown their airport and closed businesses when a minor ice storm hit the area during superbowl week.
When unfamiliar things happen, it is only natural to freak out.

So true Tommy. If only the hoots on Capitol Hill would stop wasting money on so many useless pork projects, the money could be directed to wipe out many of these health problems.
108 stitches – excellent point about Colorado.

So what idiot, it was a joke.

—————————————————-
or that the Rockies needed to re-tool their farm system and Ubaldo was one of the easiest ways to do that. as Olney pointed out on Twitter, the Rockies are going to have a hard time convincing any major FA pitcher to sign with them. claiming Wandy makes perfect sense. now its just a matter of how bad Houston wants to be rid of his contract.
Yeah, it would make so much sense for cities like Dallas, La, SF to spend tens of millions of dollars in ice/snow removal equipment that might get used every 10-20 years.
Hardly freaking out.
So what idiot, it was a joke.

Oh yes, I’m the idiot because you can’t read a clearly labelled map. Bad joke too.

I guess he was just making sure that I couldn’t say that I wasn’t warned.
108,
Agree about the pork, like turtle tunnels and another Byrd courthouse or bridges to nowhere. Problem is to find one team of researchers, collaborating internationally, to fund. Financing basic medical research is a crap shoot. Ask any pharmaceutical house.
In defense of Dallas, ice does have a tendency to mess with a plane’s ability to fly.
ah all it took was a Jimmy Buffett reference to lure out the elusive JCPD
very sad news about Pat Summitt
LOL….sorry JCPD
Although I will say that the only (and I do mean only) song of his I like is “Come Monday”. Will that admission still get me pictures???
waka – I don’t know, there. You don’t give up a supposedly stud pitcher for unproven youngsters, unless there’s a real good reason. Restocking your rotation with a mediocrity like Wandy Rodriguez on a bad contract? To me, that speaks of desperation for starting pitching.
Concerns over what was going on with Colo./Jimenez was why I was willing to deal Nova, but not the haul that ODowd wanted – in the event that Jimenez was a bust, Nova could be replaced by Noesi, with Warren and Bs in the pipeline, and it wouldn’t be devastate the rotation.
Like the Buffett Kate. And Erin, that hurts.
Great, people calling each other idiots again.

Cano you imagine Bartolo Colon and Carlos Zambrano going into an all-you-can-eat place like Perkins or golden Corral and ordering? The owners would have a stroke. stock would drop 20 points that day.
I’m waiting for WCYF to over anaylize why I shouldn’t be a Buffett fan.
Looks like The Greatest Rotation In History just took a hit. Cole Hamels is on the DL.
“Cano you imagine Bartolo Colon and Carlos Zambrano going into an all-you-can-eat place like Perkins or golden Corral and ordering? The owners would have a stroke. stock would drop 20 points that day.”
Why would Cano imagine that……there’s no way he could hang with those guys in an eating contest.
Sorry, analyze. Brain cramp.
Cano you imagine Bartolo
oooops. That was a freudian slip…or, a boo boo.

The Astros have done a nice job of getting rid of everyone on their roster that anybody would want to come watch……Im not sure they got enough back. The Braves robbed them blind in the Bourn deal.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Thanks Joe. I suspect that Billy Eppler and his scouting staff deserve much credit for advising Cashman on when to pull out of deals. The Yankees still have Phil Hughes, Jesus Montero, and Ivan Nova among others for not biting on Johan Santana, Cliff Lee, and Ubaldo Jimenez.
The old adage. Some of the best deals you make are the ones you don’t make.
FakeJoeGirardi1 Earthquake Update: Swish was blasting his album in the clubhouse around 2 pm, and CC and Bart were getting a little jiggy. Coincidence?
– A spokesman for Washington National Cathedral says at least three of the four pinnacles on the central tower have fallen off and the central tower appears to be leaning.
I love that Houston thinks they can dump Wandy’s contract AND get good players in return….
What is up fellas.
Just had Chinese. Shrimp low mang(doing my spelling impersonation of my boy gb). Why is it that everytime I eat chinese im hungry again within an hour? Is it some type of brain control that they use to make you think your full after eating the fortune cookie?
Hi SoS! I haven’t seen you around for a while.
Who stays coaching longer Summit or Paterno?
Hows it going Erin. Lots of drama. Closed my business down after 5 months and trying to lick my wounds. Doing my impersonation of Mr. Mom for the time being(heard they are coming out with a remake. Maybe I should try out for the part). Hows it going in your windy city.
BTW, here in cally. We dont move while theres an earthquake before the 5 second rule. Its more like a disneyland ride until then.
SoS-very sorry to hear about you having to close your business. And yes, you should totally go in for the Mr. Mom audition.
All is well in the windy city-no earthquake to speak of.

Question:
What happens if this weekend is rained out in Baltimore?
Sorry WCYF..we can’t all be as brilliant and pithy and as you.
Ladies and gentlemen, we just witnessed the only time in history when Californians have looked tougher than New Yorkers, and the moment lasted all of 30 seconds.
SoS…did we drive everybody else away? LOL
Nevermind…spoke too soon.
GhettoBlaster…LOL
YESNetwork Alex Rodriguez scratched from tonight’s lineup (jammed thumb).
Hurricane Irene is a comin’ to the East Coast this weekend.
With no more trips to Balt and 5 games scheduled, presents a dilemma.
They are saying we could get hit bad.
Erin,
Lol i was thinking the same thing. Was hesitant to tell you that i watched planet of the apes this weekend and thought it was awesome. Going to the pound to try to find a baby chimp that talks.
GhettoBlaster,
Ever tried to sleep at night with a serious sun burn. Not fun. Try turning over. Us Californians have to do it a couple times a year. Im not sure if we would be considered thin skinned but high pain tolerance.

JackCurryYES ARod jammed his left thumb while making a backhand play on Mauer’s grounder on Sun. Getting ice. Will see team doctor later
Arod pulled from lineup with jammed thumb
That stinks. Just got Arod back and now he’s out again.
“Hurricane Irene is a comin’ to the East Coast this weekend.

With the Yankees luck, a washout this weekend will give them an opportunity to NOT make a decision on the rotation for another 1-2 rounds LOL
Oh my, the sky is falling.
giants in football are getting killed by injuries. jeez…..
“Hurricane Irene is a comin’ to the East Coast this weekend.

If they get at least 3 of the games in, they’ll probably just scrap the other 2 games unless they are needed at the end of the season.
They do have mutual off-days on Sept 8th and 15th though. But one of them is before a WC trip and the other is on a road off-day between Seattle and Toronto. I guess they could squeeze one game in there.

Question:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The only available days off in September are the Thursdays of the 8th, 15th, and 22nd and Monday the 19th and the 26th. The 8th is out because the team travels to L.A. The 15th is out because the team is traveling from Seattle to Toronto.
FWIW – there seem to be several possible storm tracks up thru the NE, so it’s still possible, I think, for NYC area to be spared from hard stuff.
108 Stitches,
Don’t the Yankees have makeups with TB on either the 19th or 22nd.
Matter of fact, I thought the Yankees have two makeup games with TB?
Hope everyone is ok……..that was nerve wracking for awhile; I’ve never felt anything like that. Fortunately my father is fine and on his way home. Ironic that the A’s would be in town……….
Alex misses so many weeks, comes back for one game and now is missing at least one more………….hmm.
SP will be the downfall of this team when they face good hitting teams in the playoffs…
Wow, how enlightening…..
Did you guys hear about the 9/11 memorial bottle of wine?
http://eater.com/archives/2011.....r-1911.php
There is a make-up game with TB on Sept. 22.

so AROD is sitting out
joeman,
I dont think you get to the post season without being a “regular season team.”
Wait -
ARod jammed his thumb on Sunday and is getting iced NOW?
OY.
Video of Yankee fundraiser on the Channel 4 news last night showed Kevin Long checking A-Rod’s hand in the background and my wife said something is wrong with A-Rod’s hand.
Arod getting xray on thumb… available to pinch hit
Jake? Who is this “Jake”? …. I don’t like change.
Garcia starting on Saturday – and Joe hinted that Colon may be skipped in his next start. I guess that’s fine, but I get the impression that they just don’t want to make a decision about Hughes/AJ and that the start by start audition continues
http://espn.go.com/blog/new-yo.....t-saturday
The only available days off in September are the Thursdays of the 8th, 15th, and 22nd and Monday the 19th and the 26th.
========================================
9/22 is makeup w/ TB……9/26 is TB
colon’s next start would be sun or mon v balt.
not a good time to skip him when they need , at least, 6 starters
Joe Girardi confirmed that the Yankees plan to have Freddy Garcia start the second game of Saturday’s doubleheader in Baltimore.
=================================
The 2nd game…interesting….could be a surprise starter game 1 (Noesi?) so that CC can be skipped on Mon for Boston on Tues.
