The Joe Girardi appreciation thread

edmundfitzgerald

Thank you Mr. Steinbrenner for getting rid of Joe Torre and bringing in the other Joe.

We took notice of his blunder in Tampa, but his decision to pitch to Manny with an open base is worth his weight in gold.

Thank you, thank you, thank you Mr. Steinbrenner. May your investment bring you back more and more happy returns like you just saw.

Honestly, that was the first mistake I've seen him make. A big one though

Girardi...."How ya feeling Moose?"

Mussina....."Great skip!"

Girardi....."Ya feel like pitching to Manny ?"

Mussina......"Sure skip !"

Girardi...."Just be careful of that 85mph meatball you've been serving all day, along with that 67mph little league pitch"

Mussina...."Sure skip !"

Girardi..."Again Mike, be careful, that last ball he hit off you is still going."

Mussina...."OK skip !!!"

1st pitch.....BAM !


Meanwhile, in some remote place in LA, an old man with sun glasses is half asleep in a dugout thinking he could have done better

So Arod pulls a hammy today. Jeter pulled a hammy earlier this season. Thanks for that tough spring training regiment you gave the boys Joe. Heck, if they can't win the wild card, then maybe they can try out for China 2008

Joe, here are your three starters for Chicago this week.....

Wang
Mussina
Hughes

Question.............

Will Mussina or Hughes make it past the 4th inning ?
How are you going to use your bullpen ?
Does Mr. Steinbrenner pay the guys in the pen for overtime ?
I think they deserve time and a half for how much work they do.

Happy birthday Joe!
