He was talking to his imaginary friend, "Robert".

That game was great plus the O's lost to the Red Soxs (hey Matsui finally went yard something Yanks fan can be happy about)

Re: Official New York Yankees Bleacher Creatures Team Thread

Point being, a Sox fan shouldn't talk about another team and how those are easy games, when the Sox themselves had an even lower record vs those same teams.

Doesn't matter what team someone alligns themself with, doesn't change the fact that the Yankees were beating up on poor competition. A Cardinals fan can come in here and say the same thing, as can an A's fan, a Royals fan, a Pirates fan, a Cubs fan, etc.

Bad loss to the Royals tonight.

Re: Official New York Yankees Bleacher Creatures Team Thread

Mike and Chris are having an intersting idea on the FAN right now, moving A-Rod to CF next year. I think that would be a very interesting move. He's got a great arm, got the speed, the height/length. Just see how the learning curve would be to judging flyballs off the bat and seeing how good of a jump he could get.

I don't have any doubt that A-Rod could play CF. He's a great athlete and probably could play any position well.

Who would play 3B then? Russ Johnson? Damian Rolls?

Or if Womack was back next year and Cano would be willing to move to 3B, move Womack back to 2B and let Cano play 3rd?

eek. Talk about a weak hitting infield. I think they'd want more offense out of 3B than that.

How about signing Knoblauch to play 3B, with his stellar throwing ability?

Atleast the odds of him hitting a grandma would be lessened

I don't think he could even get it to 1B let alone the stands.

Eric Duncan is probably still a couple of years away but maybe that could be the plan for the future. But chances are, he'll be traded soon for some old, washed up, big contract player anyway.

Is this actually being considered, or was this just an idea they came up with?

Re: Official New York Yankees Bleacher Creatures Team Thread

I wonder if/when they'll bring up Mitch Jones from Columbus? He tore the cover off the ball in Trenton in 02 and 03 and is on pace to do the same this year, not to mention he's average is finally getting closer to .300

Personally, I'd rather see him go to the outfield than move Arod out to center.
