Yea, I personally feel it’s impossible not to pick the Yankees at this point. Just like you couldn’t pick anyone but the Braves for a decade in the NL East. They just seem to get it done.

As for Clemens, I already have something written up about him, I just need to type it up. He’s an asshole.

I said food stuff for Pelfrey, meant good obviously.

Well I have MLB.tv and have been watching alot of spring training games for like any team I want. Starting April 2 I can watch 6 games at once will be pretty sweet. Pelfrey has some food stuff. Perez has to have control down in order to not give up 70 runs. Maine I don’t really like, but some how just by throwing an 87 mph fastball every pitch, he gets people out? You think they would catch on. I still love El Duque’s 90mph fastball and then the 60mph curve though. And Glavine will pitch forever since he doesn’t throw that fast, just puts it where he wants it.

But I also have faith in the Yankees to beat out the Sox. I don’t think what happened freshman hear will or should ever happen again. A-Rod seems to be playing well too which is good. Wang is on DL now too though but I don’t think for long. Also I heard Clemens might go to Sox also but who knows. I really hate what he is doing and don’t think he should get paid his amount of money like that by not being with the team until July or whatever it is.

Yea, I was going to make a joke about Glavine being a one-man rotation. It really is Glavine and then… everyone else. Pedro is gone for God knows how long, El Duque is 50 years old, and the other three (Maine, Perez, and Pelfrey) are all question marks. But honestly, I have faith in at least two of those three pulling out decent winning seasons. I like Maine a lot, Perez showed some guts in the NLCS, and Pelfrey has had an awesome spring. I can’t say much about him personally because I haven’t been watching.

And it’s not like the Yankees rotation is that much better. Carl “Pussy” Pavano starting your first game can’t be a good thing. At least Pettitte is back. The catch is, the Yankees are in the same division as the Red Sox, whose starting staff is a bit better, especially if Beckett gets his shit together. But we all know the Yankees will do everything in their power in July to add another good arm to their rotation if they’re a few games back.

Met’s pitching in shambles but hopefully they turn out fun to watch again this season. I guess I better study for my Statistics exam prior to 8pm Sunday night then.
