I plan on going to all the games against Oakland and LAA while they are out here...Probably 4 series at the stadium when I am in the city.

Would love to give Phil one last try at the #5 spot, but with 7 starters it looks like he is back to the bullpen.. Sigh Robertson getting F'd again.. And we got Freddy Garcia still.. What the hell... Looking like #1 CC #2 Pineda #3 Nova #4 Kuroda #5 AJ Spot Starter: Garcia Regular Relievers: Joba Boone 7th inning guy- Robertson/Hughes? 8th inning guy- Soriano 9th inning guy - Mo (I'm going to cry his last appearance this year.) (Are we trying Feliciano out again?) Looks like Andruw will be our full time DH? If it is his spot and we don't get another DH. With 400 at-bats, I see him getting 25-28 HR's 70-75 RBI's. But hitting just horrendously for contact like he has his entire career. Batting order in my opinion (Although I wish Jeter was further down in the lineup I know it won't happen) 1: Jeter 2: Granderson 3: Cano 4: Teix 5: ARod 6: Swish 7: Martin 8: Andruw 9: Gardener And for the love of god can we please get a utility player and get rid of Nunez. He should never be allowed to touch a glove again in his life. LIBERALS UNITE! Last Edited By: Essential1 01/27/12 1:01 PM. Edited 4 times.

Our bullpen is gotta be the best in league... Our lineup is great (hopefully they carry over into the playoffs this time).. We don't have really any depth on our bench though. In order of teams I'm worried about: 1. Tigers, 2. Rangers, 3. Red Sox In all honest I wish we had a #2 who would be an ace on 85% of the MLB teams.. Don't get me wrong I have no problems with Pineda. But wish he was #3 in our rotation. And Nova #4. Kuroda #5. And we slowly push AJ out Since there are no sure-fire aces left, and no more pitching depth (I don't think Jackson or Oswalt can be #2 guys anymore), nothing else we can do in our rotation. But I'm content with our rotation. But there is still 1 move I feel we absolutely have to make. Sign Johnny Damon to a 1 year contract. He would get significant playing time as DH/LF/RF. He may be old, but his swing is perfect at the stadium. Is a fan favorite, and he is a great clubhouse guy who eases a lot of the tension. I again would like to petition for us to sign Eric Chavez just for backup at 3rd, and give up on Nunez and get a guy who can actually field and not put games in jeopardy defensively to backup Jeter, and play 10 games for Robbie this year when he needs rest even though he misses 3 games a year at most.

I agree. I said it last year. and beginning of the off season Jeter needs to be down in the order... But I really don't know how anyone could ask him to do that. So in my order I didn't even bother changing it LIBERALS UNITE!

Been saying it going on three years now, Jeter's ego is too big where he doesn't realize that you don't give the better on base/SB option the fewest AB's any given game or the overall regular season.

It'll garner comparisons to Torre dropping AROD to 8th in the playoffs the second it happens. Unless they have a meeting and Girardi tries to clear it with Jeter first, I think stubbornness, credo, and the identity to the fans of who Jeter is will cement him at the top of the order.

Glad to see some of you fellas have been posting this month. IDK why and how I've slacked, but it needs to change. I plan to make huge updates this week, starting tomorrow afternoon. With pitchers and catchers reporting soon, we need to get things going. The likes of onewearz and myself need the Yankees to come back ASAP since the Jets know how to let us down, as usual. Do you guys suggest we make a season thread, or rock with this one and I'll just edit the thread title? TeamYankees & NEW YORK JETS Last Edited By: bkmac 02/08/12 10:11 PM. Edited 1 time.
