The problem is Yankees have so many superstars don't like or can't do it. We really need to keep getting younger and get some players can play baseball fundamentally.Jessica Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01763469077445655085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8486845381946251843.post-75537906418901869862008-08-19T04:40:00.000+10:002008-08-19T04:40:00.000+10:00Its good to see Gardner finally come through.

I know the strategy was to send him down so he can play every day -instead of sitting on the Yankee bench- but I'm glad he's back!<BR/><BR/>I also think its a good idea to not always "try too hard". When the Yankees struggle, it seems to be when players are trying to "do too much" and have a big inning. I think they could manage a few more wins if they just played for 1 run at times. Like if with a lead-off hit, maybe bunt the guy over to 2nd or 3rd, steal a base (something Gardner can help with), and get runners in scoring position. Then just swing for a base hit or sacrifice. It seems like the Yankees consistently have RISP with no outs, but then fail to get even 1 run. I want to see some "small ball"!MJBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12284049072292523587noreply@blogger.com
