Well, the Rocket finally started for the Yankees today. He pitched rather well. As I guess Roger Clemens is known to do. I still think the Yankees overpaid, by about 20 million, but hey...it's their money. Well, it's Roger's money now.
So far I am enjoying watching the Pinstripes struggle. I have never been much of a Yankee fan, and so to watch the most stacked offensive team in baseball lose a lot, because they have no one who can pitch is satisfying.
But baseball season is long. And I suspect with the bats they have in the lineup that they will be around in September, fighting for a wild card spot.
But then, maybe not.
In related news, Soriano hit 3 HR's in one game, so I guess the Cubs finally got vindication for all the money they threw at him. Right?
This little factoid from Soriano's big game:
Soriano fact: He is the fifth player in MLB history to have three homers in a game against the same team while playing for different teams.
Who comes up with this stuff? Seriously.
