Did you know that A.J. Burnett has more wins than the entire Boston Red Sox team does? Talk about a fun fact!
I missed watching much of last night’s game, due to another project I’m working on. But I still have a few things to squawk about::
* I am kind of doubting we will see Pedro Feliciano pitch this year — the latest news isn’t good. Aside from the ridiculousness of Brian Cashman blathering about the Mets’ abusing Feliciano, I’m wondering about a few things. Like exactly what kind of physical exam did Feliciano get before becoming a Yankee? And why did it take a month between the two MRIs he had — one in spring training, one this week?
* I read some chatter online about how Jeter is out of his slump, because he had two hits last night. Whoopee. Is that how low the bar has gone for the captain? It was only two years ago that Jeter had 66 multi-hit games out of the 153 he played in. And in 21 of those games, he had three hits or more. Now, people are flipping out with excitement because he had his second two-hit game of the year?
* I thought it was interesting that the Yankees will give everybody who had tickets for last night’s game a pass for another game. That’s something the team used to do when attendance was much smaller, and I can’t remember the last time the team has done it. (I sat through worse conditions and delays at the new Stadium for an April 2009 Red Sox game, and we didn’t get anything for our troubles!)
