I too am a little surpised to see Ramirez go down, it does appear that ” management ” has the opinion that although Veras has not been red hot or even luke warm he has shown brief glimpses of what he did in 08 and they are punting he will return to that more consistantly and along with Bruney they are the two best options along with Aceves Coke and Abaladejo together with Tomko. I still think they will toss Hughes into that mx and not send him down if Wanger performs.

Matt I was lucky enough to see Jeter in 95 and My comparison is not of now but what Jeter produced first up in 95. I am not saying he will rise to his level now but he shows enough that he could in 2-3 years. I hope that is clear, just a humble opinion. The plays he has pulled off have been exceptional and exciting. If he can learn to hit well who knows what is the future.

7 in a row, Great pitching tonight by Si Si, Bruney and Tomko..Probably the best so far this season… Bats are coming alive at last!! “GO YANKEES!”
