We Will Take It

Looks like it’s gonna be this way, huh? Yanks are going to win some and lose some more and the bullpen will almost always be stingy.

Final Score: Yanks 4, M’s 3.

Alex Rodriguez hit a two-run homer early and then had a few forgettable at bats. After the game, Anthony McCarron of the Daily News asked Joe Girardi:

“Joe, when Alex hits the home run do you say, Slump Over or do you look at the other at bats in the game—he didn’t have much success after that—and say, like, It’s just a work in progress, a step forward, or—”

Joe Girardi: “You know what? I went and saw a shrink, um, and had him analyze what I should analyze and I went from there.”

Girardi’s jaw was as tight and you could see his teeth in the small smile he allowed himself. He shook his head and said, “That’s what I did.”

Easy now.

A win is a win.

Joe should have said "Stupid question, next".

Well, that is what he said. You just have to have the Girardi Translation Manual.

Yeah, I understand his frustration but reporters are just doing their jobs.

I think that reporters should ask fact questions. What does it say when and what was going through your mind when are lazy quires.

[4] "I went to a shrink/to analyze my dreams/she says it's lack of sex that's bringing me down"

A-Rod and Joey-Joe need to get laid something awful.

[7] That can't be too difficult for A-Rod, but Joe is a wet blanket in a snowstorm. If he weren't married, his favorite pick-up line would be a full recital of the Gettysburg Address.

[8] I LOVE it! "Four score and seven innings ago....zzzzzzzz"
