Back to .500 we go.
Yea, He seems to make the softest contact of any yankee hitter i have ever seen, even his homers that go far don't seem to explode off of the bat...
But another bad loss. I can't even blame this all on rivera, at some point, we have to rest him, can't keep using him everyday to just hold the score even and not save game, we should have put up 6 runs vs that bum starter and this game would have been in the books for us as a win..

He has an inability to drive the ball consistently. After he got off to a hot start, I thought he turned the corner. It looks like he hasn't... he's just a mediocre player.
We should have traded him when his stock was high... bring up Gardner, he can't do any worse than Melky.
You are right... I can't blame Mo. This is his 3rd straight game. He needs a rest.

I was reading the post the other day, and they hinted that this kid in our famr system, I think it is Gardner is MLB ready, and probably just as good as melky, and that we should move melky in a deal to get a quality arm in the pen.. I like Houston street.. he would be great setting up mo...
now we have oakland, it is always tough going out there, we need to start winning series, not necessarily sweeps(although that would be great) but winning series... time to make up some ground...
