CARL PAVANO has burned The Yankees THREE TIMES…
First, as an opponent of The Yankees in the 2003 World Series…
Pavano burned them again, when he spent almost his entire four seasons with The Yankees on the disabled list, collecting $40 Million in the process…
And now, Pavano is burning them again as an opponent. Ouch.

The name of the song from the movie Anchor’s Aweigh ( ? ), starring Sinatra and Kelly

” New York, New York, it’s a hell of a town, the Bronx is up, and the battery’s down ”

Thanks

Duncan had 57 at bats in 2008. In 2007 he hit 7 homers in 75 at bats. Is anyone “cast in stone” and proven beyond a shadow of a doubt in that small of a sample? I know what I feel about Gardner beyond a shadow of a doubt.—He’ll never amount to anything because he’s not good enough.

canandian–I disagree. Duncan was not given much of a chance at all. He didn’t do well last year, but he was not given many at bats at all. He had a great spring this year. Also, he never has had difficulty “catching up” to any fast ball. Breaking balls are another story. Is he excelling at the AAA Level against only those pitchers who can’t pitch in the bigs? Can he be any worse than Swisher? Or a rapidly deteriorating Matsui? Gardner is like the law of diminishing returns. Gardner has done much more wrong lately than not stealing when he has been given the sign. I’ve never seen a speedy outfielder like him get such a poor break on a ball. The more you play him, the worse he will be. Duncan deserves another shot. He is dominating at the level where he is, so you do the logical thing.

Nooger … Shelley Duncan has been to the BIG dance before and proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that he is a power hitting AAA player who hits AAA pitching very well. The vision of him corkscrewing himself into the ground trying to catch up to a major league fastball and miss is vivid in my memory. I don’t want to see it again. Having said that I don’t want to see Gardiner stand pat when given the steal sign in a critical situation. IMHO I don’t think they would have thrown to second if he had attempted to steal…but he didn’t …can’t win them all and on to tomorrow…GO YANKS!!

I don’t think Duncan is on the 40 man roster so they can’t bring him up without dropping someone.Gardner blew 2 plays today,1 in the field then not stealing.Posada is a terrible pinch hitter,does not do well off the bench.

Shelley Duncan–in 40 Games at Scranton-Wilkes-Barre–18 homers, 49 rbi’s and a .304 batting average. He leads the league in homers and rbi’s. It would be nice to have another right=handed bat right now. Duncan or Matsui? Duncan or Gardner? Duncan or Berrora? I know who I would want.
