Shef comes though again in the post season.
Hoping that this early post doesn't jinx the Tigers but
Shef is 1-11 vs Detroit this year. dick -- OK guys, can I now say that the Yankees aren't in the post season?

I'm amazed they didn't give an error to A-Rod when Sheff dropped the DP ball from Jeter. That was one hell of a game by Bonderman... Jon

I think one error a night is enough for poor ol' A-Rod. I almost feel bad for the guy.

Being moved to 8th in the lineup couldn't have been very enjoyable. I think he's probably done as a Yankee, even though they'll have to carry a big chunk of his contract. I wouldn't be surprised if Torre's done too. This has to be Steinbrenner's most frustrating defeat, so I fully expect some heads to roll.

There aren't many former Braves I pull against, but fr no other rerason than his 3-30 performance for us in two postseasons, I root for Sheff to suck every postseason. Colin

I wouldn't be surprised to see them unload A-Rod. I think he's said before he won't waive his no-trade clause with NY, and who knows, maybe he'll come back wanting to prove something. But his situation there seems just about untenable. I guess he and Boars just never really anticipated the pressure and (often unfair) response to failure that would come with signing a contract that huge. Hmmmm. What could the Braves offer? Too bad Hudson struggled so badly this year, it'd have been worthwhile to offer them Hudson and Salty (since Posada's getting up in years as catchers go) Colin

I'm of that opinion as well with regards to A-Rod. I couldn't see him asking for a trade, but I can see the Yankees looking to move him. He's just become one of the worst 'pressure' players in the game, and that obviously won't do in pinstripes. With Torre, I don't know. More than once I'vee thought his tenure with the Yankees was up, but somehow he keeps coming back. Maybe this is the year that Steinbrenner finally goes Bronx Zoo and makes things interesting again. It certainly doesn't break my heart to see the Yankees go down like this. Their '00s are looking a hell of a lot like the Braves' late '90s...

Mighty kind of him to oblige you. Don't you with the Braves could have faced the recent Yankee squads back in 96/99? Aside from Jeter, these guys just have no mojo...

Does Jeter really have mojo? It'll be fascinating to see how none of the stink from this series lands on him when he only went 3-11 in the last three games. He had a spectacular Game 1, but was pretty crappy the rest of the way. I suppose he'll benefit from the fact that everyone sucked more than he did. What's really fascinating about Jeter is that his post-season numbers are virtually identical to his regular season numbers. 317/388/463 in the regular season to 307/379/463 in the playoffs. I mean, it's nice that he doesn't get worse in the playoffs (like so many Braves have over the years) but it's not like the guy suddenly shoots up 100 points of OPS in the playoffs or anything... Jon

I was thinking the very same thing. I'll bet they're feeling some of the same pressure of past failures too, albeit to a lesser degree.
