PHILADELPHIA (Reuters) –The New York Yankees will lean heavily on CC Sabathia in their chase for a 27th World Series title as manager Joe Girardi said Saturday the big left-hander would start Sunday's Game Four against Philadelphia. Starting Sabathia on three days' rest instead of the accustomed four means the Yankees ace would also be available to start a deciding Game Seven should the series

As I posted on Squawker Lisa's Facebook page last night, I want to congratulate her and all of our Yankee fan readers on championship #27. The better team won, and, as I also wrote on Facebook, at least Shane Victorino made the final out. My side hasn't won very much lately, but I did beat Lisa in one area - predictions. Lisa had Yankees in seven, while I had Yankees in six. She was willing to give...

(from Squawker Jon) Is Joe Girardi making a mistake by going with a three-man rotation? I think he is. Game 5 is hindsight now, but going into Game 6, I think the Yankees would be better off having used Chad Gaudin in Game 5 and having A.J. Burnett available on full rest for Game 6. I wrote about it for The Faster Times. You can read the article here . I still expect the Yankees to win the World Series....

Philadelphia Phillies starter Cliff Lee won his second game of the World Series in an 8-6 game 5 win over the New York Yankees, narrowing the series gap to 3-2. More late inning Yankees heroics were not enough to overcome the Phillies' six-run lead. "All season, the Phillies have talked of their mental fortitude, of the way they shed defeat like a waterproof deck," writes David Murphy of...

Observations: 1. So now the Series goes back to New York, with the Yankees leading 8-6. Unless Joe Girardi summons Chad Gaudin to the mound, the Yankees' starters both will be working on short rest. Since the 2004 NLDS (when Roy Oswalt beat Jaret Wright), starters in the post-season working on short rest are 0 and 7. The record for starters working on short rest since 1999 is 9-28. The edge on this...

I would have posted about this topic early in the day if I wasn’t preoccupied with the Quinnipiac newspaper’s sports section. Still, I wanted to hear some answers from my followers, and you may be surprised at some of them, considering this poll was taken after A.J. Burnett was yanked in the third inning.

UPDATE, 8:57 p.m.: Despite that rocky first inning, Burnett looked good in the second and may pull off another one of these bad-start, good-finish starts. Lee is certainly more hittable than he was in Game 1. There’s a long way to go yet. UPDATE, 9:09 p.m.: Looks like Chad Gaudin is getting loose in the Yankees [...] Click on the headline for the rest of this blog post ...

PHILADELPHIA — The New York Yankees are chasing championship No. 27 by throwing their top pitchers on three days' rest. With a chance to clinch the crown, A.J. Burnett is scheduled to start on short rest against Philadelphia ace Cliff Lee in Game 5 of the World Series on Monday night. CC Sabathia went on three days' rest Sunday night in Game 4, and Andy Pettitte could do the same in Game 6 if...

Girardi just announced that CC Sabathia will start Game 4 tomorrow night. I think this is a good idea. You don’t want Chad Gaudin to start, as he has thrown to what…three hitters in the span of the last month? Sabathia has obviously proven that he can go on short rest, and he has been nothing [...] Added by: zellyanks91 Viewed: 0 time(s) Tags/Keywords: breaking news yankee players yankees...

I really do not have time today to go into this, but Mike Francesa has forced my hand by convincing every human being I know outside of the Yankee blogosphere that Chad Gaudin should be starting tonight. Here are the relevant data points: 1) Chad Gaudin has thrown 2.1 innings since Sept. 28. 2) Chad Gaudin [...]

Tonight, in the first elimination game of the 2009 World Series, the Yankees will send A.J. Burnett to the mound on just three day’s rest. The tactic makes sense. The alternative is Chad Gaudin, who hasn’t started a game since late September and who has a well-documented deficiency when facing left-handed hitters. With such a [...] Post from: River Ave. Blues A New York Yankees blog Burnett’s...

It really made no sense. The Yankees spend $208 million on players and start Chad Gaudin in the World Series? Really?

This is tough to tab the New York Yankees as a team of destiny. They challenge for World Series titles year after year, their spending habits are often blamed for making Major League Baseball a plutocracy that rewards the big-market teams with wins and glory. They are either the definition of a classy, winning franchise or the personification of arrogant, humorless baseball-as-business thinking, depending...
