The Yankee game ended early yesterday and some writers put some writing out for this morning or I just might of missed it because Sunday is the only real day I get to sleep late. There’s also a Derek Jeter interview that I’m posting from Steve Serby from the NY Post. There’s also an article about the “Goose” telling Joba, JUST Joba, to act like a Yankee by Bergen Record’s BOB KLAPISCH.

Igawa gets Detroit

May 9th, 2008 admin Posted in 2008 Reg-Season Games | No Comments »

Igawa didn’t fare great in the minors and he gave up a lot of hits but also struck out a lot of batters. I’m not sure it’s going to work out for him.
