Damn! Things have been so damn hectic around here the past few weeks I've missed most of the playoffs so far. Maybe I can get caught up.

I'm really amazed the Yankees are out of it with the lineup they have. They're not as strong as they were a couple of years back but they are still potent and deep at every position with Berra and Howard, Skowron and Pepitone, Tresh and Kubek. And Clete at third doesn't need backup! Plus that outfield is still strong with The Mick and Maris.....Then Whitey and Bouton of course....Man, I just can't believe they are out of it!

But I'm with Mick on this one although I thought I'd never say that after they stole Colavito from the Indians. So how is Rocky doing in the playoffs? Homer yet? Are they playing Wertz much? Vic ain't what he used to be but he still brings something to the team when he plays. Has Kaline gotten a couple of homers or triples? Did Bunning start the first game? And what about Hank Aguirre? He's really lived up to his all-star status this year.

Dave, I'm sorry but the A's just ain't all that much! Jerry Lumpe and Dick Howser are about the best they got and the pitching is nowhere. Orlando Pena is not too strong on the mound and John Wyatt can't close a door let alone a game, even with a big lead. They haven't shown much since they left Phildelphi.   Phildelphi? What happened to the A's? They moved to Kansas City! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA What a joke....as are the A's.

Keep me updated.
