A bit more critical? :chuckles: He lambasts players when they screw up. That and he also love to fight with the umps. I am sure he would fight with Steinbrenner and the NY media as well. IDK how long he would last without giving himself a heart attack.

okay so i was being conservative in my comments, Pinella acts like an animal toward his players, staff, the umpires, and the media. :reechy:
if the sox dont clinch the central i'm gonna be pissed!!!!!!
i tried getting tickets to Angels 1st playoff home game on Monday but the only ticket they had left was an "obstructed view" seat

honestly i am not sure how the division is going to end up. I hope the yankees pull it off and can take out boston.
Chicago is going to take the central and Cleveland will most likely take the Wild card.
As far as Torre goes, I dont see him out, Steinbrenner doesnt want to pay him the 7mil per year for the final 2 years of the contract, and Torre certainly wont walk away from 14 million on the table.
The bullpen is a joke, The problem is that they did make alot of moves but most of the pitchers failed to perform, Rodriguez, Stanton, Embree, Leiter, Proctor, Quantrill.
I cant imagine where we would be tho if Cashman didnt make the move for Chacon and bring up Small

i think if we can get a year or 2 more from Randy Johnson and Mussina, give Chein Ming Wang some time to develop (and be even better than he already is) and keep Chacon and Small around, the Yanks staff will be extremely hard to beat.
Chacon came from Colorado, he was a starter and a closer at times there.
As far as next years rotation goes, I see Johnson Mussina, Wang, Pavano, and Chacon.
Honestly i see Small as a one year wonder, He is not a solution for the long haul, and Jaret Wright was a bad investment.

Chacon got a boost of confidence when wearing the NY logo ... Small is pitching his brains out.
Someone made a deal with the devil.

Considering the other 8 guys on the team, im not all taht surprised that Chacon is so much more effective with the Yanks than the Rockies.... look how much more he has to work with.
