       Now Cactus,  If Koye had played more games then Geo would have
       played less and Geo wouldn't have had as many errors.  I just
       wanted to point that out before another poster had to go thru a
       mega post berating and correcting you.

       I was going to say that it was like keeping Jes around because
       of his agreeable disposition.

       Yeah...I was gonna go there, but I had already done one, so I
       left it for someone else...

       If the Yankees lose today, and go into the offseason with the
       knowledge that they pitched AJ Burnett in an elimination game
       and lost...is there any chance that Girardi's job is in
       jeopardy?

       Never know.  Tito's already gone.  Only the Cubs have low
       expectations as long as the manager has cutesy nicknames for his
       boys.

       It is the Yankees.  They have done such things in the past.

       Do the Yankees really have anyone better to start, though?  I
       haven't followed that series closely...but I'm assuming Nova has
       already pitched.  Sabathia pitched yesterday after the rainout
       in game 1.  Do they have anyone else who is likely to do better
       than Burnett?
       Burnett starting seems to be more on Cashman than Girardi.

       Is Garcia injured?  ERA+ of 122 for the season, compared to
       Burnett at 86.
