Happy Birthday, George

In 1983, Dave Righetti no-hit the Red Sox on the Fourth of July, a fitting birthday present for George Steinbrenner. Fast forward 23 years later, where Shawn Chacon gives George the equivalent of a box full of snakes for his birthday, masterminding a 19-1 loss to the Indians. If this doesn't get Steinbrenner's wheels turning, nothing will. I would expect Smoltz here by the end of the week back in the day, but we will have to wait and see what gives with Cashman "in control".

"strained left oblique" on JD.

The Yanks really straightened things out tonight, thankfully. The six stolen bases helped. Poor Victor Martinez....it was embarrassing.

Re: Happy Birthday, George

I'm not sure, but the YES network broadcasters were being incredibly negative....so he might be out for a while. I hope not... How many more injuries can the Yankees take without completely collapsing?

Re: Happy Birthday, George

Im trying to think of a regular who hasn't missed some time. Damon, Cano, Matsui, Sheffield, Jeter, Giambi, A-Rod, Posada have all been out of games for various ailments.
