Yanks fall to Detroit, with a major power outage from the All-Star lineup in the three losses. The Boss is said to be unhappy, and rightly so -- but Torre isn't the reason the Yanks lost, it was the pitching. Apparently Lou is being considered, but they'd better move fast if they really want him, he's already had talks to four teams with openings. Pitching is the issue. Unit isn't the dominator he once was, and Moose is pretty long in the tooth as well. Jared Wright and Carl Pavano are absolutley not the answer either. Some are also calling for A-Rod to be moved, I think that is stupid as well, although he can't hit his weight in the playoffs. I'm not sure who is available, but they need to get younger and better on the staff. Barry Zito, anyone? When the Yanks were winning they had both pitching and hitting, and recently they've gone back to the late 80's all-bat, no pitch lineup that got them nowhere.
Elsewhere, the Tiggers go to the Bay on Tuesday, and the Cards go to the Stupid Mets on Wednesday. Go Cards.
