Such a shame he left and the next year, the Yankees go to the World Series.
We talked about that too.
If he stayed though, then Tino would not have been a Yankee and would they have gone to the playoffs without Tino?

I was in the ballpark opening day 97 to watch him raise the Championship flag. Shame, yes, but not sure given his back that we could have won it with him still on the team.

Just bad timing/luck for a great ballplayer not to have won at least one championship.

He admittedly said his body was just not in it as his mind was.

Well, when one finds themselves amongst such articulate and prolific speakers, sometimes one is relegated to "I 2nd that" :-)

His body was worn down for a while. I wondered if his work ethic hurt him in the long run with all the extra hitting sessions he would do during the season and then during the off-season in his house.

Though I could never see him doing it, it would have been interesting to see him concentrate on keeping physically fit and active in a hitting sense and DH'ing.

My two year old grandson can steal on Posada.

All those throws to first and in the end, it was not even close at second.

I think most of Donnie's problem was his bad back - though, considering the problems he had later on with his wife, it may have partly been the pain in his butt also.

I like Jorge but man, the guy is a flashing neon sign "steal from me, everyone does".

....and sure, grandson may need one with his arm.

You are so much ahead of me on the game.
My ATT Uverse is way behind any of my friends when we are watching the same game.
Amazing how that works.
I just saw the HR after you had posted.:-)

The Radio is not on a time delay like the tv.
