Baseball - October 2006

Despite the fact that the Yankees have made the playoffs for eleven consecutive years under Joe Torre, their recent 3-10 playoff record (over their last 13 postseason games) has "compelled" Steinbrenner to supposedly fire and replace him with Lou Pinella.

Without question, this will be among one of the many offseason changes in New York.

If you were Steinbrenner or Cashman, what changes would you make this winter? (Be reasonable!)

I do I think that A-Rods attitude affected the whole team. How do you all feel about it. Should A-Rod stay or go?

The Yankees have picked up the biggest and best stars for years, yet they don't have the success that is expected. Do too many egos in one stadium cause a lack of team play? I'd like to hear intelligent responses here, no "they suck." answers please. :)

I think the Yankees (including this off season) should stop getting allstar players and finding new talent.To start off next year they should start Melky Cabrera as one of their outfielders.

Of course, he would have to waive his no trade clause, but who could the Yanks possibly get for A-Rod? All wacky ideas accepted, as long as they make some sort of sense. A-Rod for Julio Franco? Uh, I don't think so.

The Yanks have lost 3 consecutive playoff series for the first time in history. Sorry Joe. We had some good times, but c'mon.

We all know the Cubs are in need of change. Who do you think will manage them in 2007, what will happen with Kerry Wood and Mark Prior, and who will they acquire in the offseason? Who will leave? Also, do you think Wrigley Field should get demolished in favor of a new stadium? I do. How about the chances of A-Rod coming to a Chicago team?

i realized something this morning, the yank haters and lovers keep throwing blows to each other and the real fault for all this is not each other but the NEWS MEDIA, everyone likes to hear good things said about their team in the national media, we all do, however, if it reaches a point of over saturation then there is resentment by those who would die for that attention, the media and the sports analists can be your friend yank fans and your worst ememy, the reason for the yank haters is not truely jelousy but simply tired of hearing about them, what i saw this morning is all the same peole that earlier had many good things to say about you are the first to critisize you now, and your player showed me class in a looser's locker room, now the so called experts that always like to go with a sure thing are all saying they pick the tigers over oakland, how you think oakland feels about this? they are the aggitator, they build you up and make you think you can walk on water, then dump you

when the yankees fire joe torre (cuz they are stupid and think its his fault they lost when in reality they lost because brian cashman didnt do his job and get GOOD pitchers) who thinks the red sox should go after this guy and kick tito franCOMA to the curb.

just like the yankees took johnny damon from the sox last year, we will take joe torre from the yankees

who wants/thinks this will happen?

For crying out loud they had a .600 record in the regular season. The playoffs is just a crapshoot.

I feel your pain. To have the best record (tied) and to get knocked out in the first round. Been there done that Red wings Pistons 2nd round.
When you expect a World Series......................................
Should A-Rod be traded and Torres be fired???????

Nobody Does. The Yankees have at least a $200 million pay roll. He can spend twice as much more than at least 25 other major league baseball teams can. He has more resources available to him than anybody else.
