Mark Teixeira was 4 for 4 today which is a far cry from the mark that was batting 190 a few days ago. I hope this a sign of him coming around for the rest of the season.
The Yankees are still an enigma however. When offense is good the bullpen is terrible and vise versa. Imagine is everything was operating smoothly? I know we are missing Brian Bruney and its a major blow but he's not our savior for every game....just like arod has not been except for today. We need to get that bullpen together and mess with the lineup when needed. Girardi is a big fan of putting out the same lineup everyday.
Teixeira and Rodriguex should be what Mauer and Morneau are for the Twins, let's hope they get there.
As I mentioned in the previous post, I have been on twitter a lot, live tweeting the games. I follow a lot of other Yankee fans and see there opinions. During today's game, Micheal Kay asked if asking Rodriguez to bunt was ridiculous considering he's been slumping. Everyone seemed to thin it was. I disagree. Everyone in the lineup should no how to bunt and to not be offended if asked to do so. I don't care how big of a superstaer they are, if your slumping, your slumping and should do whatever possible for your team.
Thoughts?
