interesting to have 2 NY vs. Chicago matchups this weekend
Yanks vs. White Sox, one of the best teams in the AL
Mets vs. Cubs, one of the worst teams in the NL

Yanks pick up Sidney Ponson for their rotation, after he was let go by the Cardinals (who then got Jeff Weaver)

makes sense

I love seeing the red sox bullpen getting overused then blowing the game the last 2 games

Mo gets his 400th save in completing a Yankee sweep of the White Sox
He did in impressive fashion, as it was for 2 full innings, and he drew 2 double plays

Most importantly, the Yankees are 1/2 games back of Boston and 3 games back of the wild card White Sux. Yanks pitching is starting to do pretty well especially when most of the AL is pretty awful. It's always a decided advantage when you have a great closer like Mo. He's the best!

Mariners in town, I was hoping for another sweep but then I remembered Sidney Ponson is pitching Tuesday. That's an automatic blood bath! My prediction is that the Yanks will get someone else to replace him after his 2-3 atrocious starts. I hope I'm wrong.

Bobby Abreu is all the talk in the papers. Not really a big fan of that. Not a great defensive player, he's lost his power, and is considered a clubhouse malcontent potentially ruining the great chemsity the Yanks got this year.

When the yankees get matsui and cano back, they will be the 2nd best team in AL. Boston has one starter(schilling) a rookie closer.

White sox starters showed there true colors this weekend most have era's over 5.00. They cant hit way out vs the better al tems.

Mets hit 2 salamis for a franchise record 11 runs in one inning, against the Cubs
A great display on national TV
Good to see them beat a rookie pitcher for once
Sure bailed out El Duque, who didn't last through the 2nd inning, and gave up a home run to the Cubs pitcher
