Our Yankees Players and Plays of the Week

[Dry1313]

This is a excellent idea I've taken from the Brewers forum.

Each Saturday night, we will all post our players and plays of the Week. The deal is here though, we are restricting this too ONLY Yankees.

Each night, I will post those who had outstanding games, and the outstanding plays the had, and on each Saturday, as a Yankee community, we will vote on our player and play of the Week from the Top 5.

I encourage all members of the site to take part, as any input on our Yankees is always greatly appreciated.

Joba *****slapped his inning. Gotta love the enthusiasm from him. It's so fun to watch.

game 3 - phil hughes
game 4 - loss
game 5 - loss
game 6 - chien ming wang

[Dry1313]

game 1 - melky
game 2 - nobody gets a potg in losses, as far as im concerned

As bad as losses are, we still had a nice game from ARod...I mean it's team to lose and individual to do well...

That being said, I agree: Melky, ARod, Hughes
