Dear Yankees Offense,
Please start hitting the ball.
Sincerely,
Yankee fans everywhere
Seriously, outside of Cano, A-Rod, and Russell Martin, nobody is really hitting. Take a look:
Swisher = .219
Jeter = .206
Teixeira = .182
Granderson = .172
Gardner = .167
Posada = .138
Two-thirds of the Yankees lineup is hitting under .219. You're not going to win a lot of games when you hit like that. Just ask the Rays and Red Sox. Burn.
I've seen a lot of talk about Derek Jeter and his offensive struggles. I think a lot of that criticism is a little underserved. I could understand it if he was the only one scuffling but if you look at their numbers; he's doing better than 1/2 the lineup. But DJ has kind of brought this on himself. He didn't exactly light the world on fire last season. The concerns are very valid. But it's early. They'll all snap out of it.
Wake up bats.
Peace, love and Pinstripes,
J-Boogie

Red Sox- nowhere to go but up!
Wait for it. It's going to be awesome. You know, like 2-1 series wins.
Or....they can stay where they are and be this year's cellar dwellar. 2-1 series wins would be awesome......if you won enough series. One isn't going to cut it, even if it's against the Yankees. And when you're 2-9 can you really talk trash??
