The YANKEES are never as bad as the worst teams in baseball. Their payroll is way too expansive to permit that, but sometimes they seem to contain the chemistry that exists on all the bad clubs. They keep up appearances by having marquee players distract you from what is esssentially a group of strangers cobbled from different walks of life. This is the major leagues and I doubt you will ever find a team that has come through the minor leagues together, but these YANKEES are as disparate a group as I have ever seen.

ALEX RODRIGUEZ a/k/a ‘Prom Queen’ will never be the A-ROD from Seattle. JASON GIAMBI is so unimpressive off steroids. RANDY JOHNSON hasn’t killed a single bird in New York. The highlight of DEREK JETER’s career is that at one time he was schtooping MARIAH CAREY. The YANKEES will never fall into the abyss because their owner would gladly ruin the salary structure of the game in order to procure a winning ballclub, but it is refreshing to watch the wheels come off ever so slightly as the METS ascend to NYC prominence.

Say it ain’t so CURT? It seems that losing can take it’s toll on a player physically and mentally. CURT SCHILLING has hinted that he may retire after this season. And I so wanted to see a Boston/METS World Series next year. Cie la vie.
