ever since steinbrenner tossed gene michael all steinny wants is reggie jackson. so the whole fuckin team is a bunch of reggie jacksons. No pitching, no speed to get more steals, no bunting, no generating 3 hits in a row anymore. As long as steinbrenner has any say in the organization, they're fucked.
simply because he played on the yankees during their 98 & 99 championship teams, he's part of the so called dynasty. He was the leading catcher during their championship run. He was also a great mentor for jorge posada.
What could Joe do with a team with a 14 million payroll? he got them to a near .500 record & had a better record than 10 other teams, all with higher payrolls. Joe knows how to win.
I don't give much credit for george steinbrenner to do the right thing. He's like bush - he doesn't know reality when it stares him in the face. The yanks won world series with pitching, not a team full of reggie jacksons. But all george cares about are balls flying over the fence. So yanks have ARod & Jaret Wright. Lovely.
