Kurtis no longer blows, leads Yanks to 7th in a row

After serving as a punching bag for fans for much of the year, Curtis Granderson is on his way to putting up a respectable season. After going 2-3 with 2 doubles and 2 walks to lead the Bombers to their 7th win in a row, C-Grand now sits at .252/.324/.459. It's certainly below expectations, but it's decent. Heading into the game, Curtis had an OPS+ of 109.

    Grandy > Damon > Gardner

    A little youth and speed, a good representative for the sport and team, I like him. Even though he sucked most of the season. I hope the NYY don’t waste a boatload on free agent outfielders this offseason, we are fine as is, maybe pick up a good fourth outfielder or give a AAA guy a shot. Spend the dough on Cliff Lee and any other quality starters available.

    Ben Dover… First off, we’ve gone over that Gardner is better than Damon (and has been better than Grandy), but we don’t need to rehash those arguments. More importantly, I’m pretty sure we have 3 OFs under contract for next year…. the 3 OFs we currently have playing for us. People only talk about Carl Crawford as a luxury. There are no “AAA guys” to give a shot to instead of “spending a boatload” on free agents. We have an OF. Maybe Cash wants Crawford. But I no not of these AAA guys who deserve a shot.

    in 2011, I would like to see Crawford over Gardner. I know BG has that home grown appeal & produces but Crawford talks like he is hellbent on getting better & is just 2 years older than BG.

    I would like to see Cliff Lee replace Javier Vasquez.

  7. On Friday, Girardi said, Jeter had a routine day off.

    Gardner and Grandy hit 1-2: “The pair of speedy left-handed-hitting outfielders combined to reach base seven times, score four times and drive in four runs, tormenting Toronto pitchers all afternoon.”

    And we had a day off from Derek Jeter.

    Gardner is much better than Damon and Grandy. Its not even arguable that he is better.

  25. History Professor says:

    The KC BBQ Sauce and CC? And because Curtis Granderson phonetically shares a name with two other black people NoMaas is racist? At least we have black players! And they get positive recognition! From this website! It’s not like NoMaas is calling Cano lazy or saying Vasquez sucks because he is selling mangoes or something. Next thing you know the Sensitive RAB Guy will complain that calling CC the “big guy” perpetuates the cultural notion of the “angry black man.” Don’t be so sensitive! I like the original one (or non-original one) better.

    I just Wikipedia’d and Google’d “Curtis” just to make sure NoMaas isn’t racist (since they are the all powerful knowledge sources), and I would much rather see 50-Cent and Kurtis Blow references than a Jamie Lee Curtis or Edward Curtis one.
