Too Early for Panic

The Yankees are 12-6 without Tex, Johnson or Javi performing like they do every year. Last year the Yankees started out 11-10 in April.

The Yanks 12-6 have lost only one series. Playing the Sox, Rays, Angels 2, Tex and Oak.

The Rays 14-5 have played, Baltimore 2, the Sox, Chi sox, and Toronto. Not the same level of teams the Yanks have.
So lets not go crazy!

The Yankees still need to play Baltimore, Chi Sox, Toronto, not to mention the Royals.

10-3 Back in First

At 10-3 the Yankees sit alone in first place.

The Yankees are 8-2 with in the last 10 games. So I ask you how the hell are the Yankees only .5 up on the Rays.

The Red Sux are 6 game back in the lose column.

No hits by Jeter so only batting .345 as Posada leads the team with .357.

The Yankees are hot this year, they are on track to win 100 games this year.

A-Gone for 8th place all time

Say what you want but the Yankees best and most important player is A-Rod. As he goes so does the Team, last year in May Alex came back from surgery and the Yankees started winning.



A-Rod moved into sole possession of 8th place all time on the home run list. He hit his 584th home run and number one for the year. He needs 2 home runs to tie Frank Robinson.

Sabathia Solid as Yanks win again.

Robby and El Capitan became the first pair of Yankee teammates to hit safely in first 10 games. During that time period Jeter is Batting .348 and Robinson .390.


Sabathia struck out 9 as he earned his second victory of the young season.

Yankees are now 7-3 and alone in first place.


These fans came out to watch the Game despite the weather, but it was all worth it as the YANKEES WIN!

The Last Number 42



By Frank Solares

Every Player in the Major Leagues will wear number 42 as a tribute to Jackie Robinson.

The Yankees should wear Elston Howards number as a tribute to Jackie Robinson, for making it possible for him to be on the team. He wore number 32 for all you new Yankee fans.

Mariano Rivera is the last major league to ever wear the number 42 on a daily basis. Rivera is the greatest reliever of all time and the Yankees will never replace him. His number will be retired next to Jackie Robinson and without Jackie braking the color barrier no other minority baseball player had the opportunity to join the league.


Born: January 31, 1919 in Cairo Georgia, Jack Roosevelt "Jackie" Robinson made his MLB debut April 15, 1947 for the Brooklyn Dodgers. Making him the first man of any color to join Major League Baseball, as well as making it possible for a player like Mariano to play in the Majors.

According to Wiki Jackie was the first African-American television analyst in Major League Baseball, and the first African-American vice-president of a major American corporation. In the 1960s, he helped establish the Freedom National Bank, an African-American-owned/controlled financial institution based in Harlem, New York. In recognition of his achievements on and off the field, Robinson was posthumously awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom and the Congressional Gold Medal.

My two Champs Bling



I love the Yankees forever but the Pens Ring is better.



My Two Champs in one year.
Crosby beats Jeter on this one, but Jeter has more rings.















Jeter Starts Year on fire.




The captain has 12 hits in the 37 AB, I know not TY Cobb numbers but good for .324 avg.




This is good for 47th all time, next on the list Ken Griffey 2767 (Derek Jeter 2759). He is one great wknd away.
