Hats Off to Joba...

Posted by: Miss October

Just felt like posting this photo because I loved it....

I heard Joba say in a post-game interview that he tipped his cap and touched his heart while walking off the mound yesterday because he wanted to thank the fans who have been with him every step of the way since being called up to the majors last August.

How can you not love this guy? I hope it works out that he faces the Mets next weekend during the Subway Series, Round 2.....

Hero for a Day

Ok, this one time, I will give props to Jason Giambi... His stellar Yankee moments are so few and far between, we might as well celebrate his triumphs, as it makes Yankee fans feel like he may have truly earned just a small portion of his ridiculously large contract...

He surprised me yesterday in hitting the walk-off HR which won the game. (Kyle Farnsworthless owes him big time...).. especially when the swing before looked like the "Giambi-esque"overswing and miss, while bending your knee and almost falling over... what a klutz.

Speaking of being a klutz... we should note that Giambi's play at first base has improved "20 times over" last year... at least according to John Sterling. But is that really saying much? What is sadder is that Shelley Duncan is worse.

But, he definitely hasn't won me over... I saw a headline the other day which made me cringe : Giambi a Yankee in 2009? Uggh. Honestly, I've had enough. And get rid of that ridiculous moustache, please.
