Torre wants more |
Joe mentioned yesterday that he is interested in continuing to manage in the Bronx after his current contract is up at the end of this season. This can only be good news because (a) it means he is happy, and I'm sure it's much easier for a manager to be successful if he is likes his job; (b) if he is happy, that will have a positive effect on team chemistry, which, in the Bronx is always an issue; and (c) he's a damn good manager, despite some things he does that I don't agree with, and his record as the Yankee skipper speaks for itself.
Speaking of some of the things that Torre has done that I don't agree with, apparently he heard about my discontent and decided to make some changes. Unlike previous years, Mo is going to only be a 3-out closer, as he should be. His overuse of Rivera has been frustrating over the years. Instead of using him in the traditional 3-out closer role, there has been many times he has brought in Rivera to get way too many outs. I don't mind the occasional 4-out save. And I understand that once in every great while, if it's a critical game and a close game and middle relief can't get it done, Rivera may have to come in for 5 or 6 outs. However, Torre's frequent use of Rivera in the 8th in previous seasons is not good. I'm sure it wares Mo out as the season goes on, and God knows we need him more as the season goes on and certainly into the playoffs. It sends a bad message to the rest of the bullpen, and when a manager doesn't have confidence in you, it's increasingly difficult to have confidence in yourself. And finally, I have to wonder if years of doing this has any effect on the duration of his career. When people refer to Mo as "possibly one of the greatest closers to ever play the game", I always scratch my head when I hear the word "possibly". What more can the guy do? of course, we may know the answer to that question as he may be adding to his arsenal in the near future.Labels: Bullpen, Rivera, Torre |

Carl Pavano the ace? |
| Chin-Ming Wang will likely start the season on the disabled list due to a pulled hamstring. He will probably miss at least a month. While it's not good news, it shouldn't be a long-term problem. Andy Pettitte has been experiencing back problems, so he won't pitch on opening day. Mike Mussina is on a schedule that he doesn't want to break, so he will not pitch opening day. Kei Igawa and Jeff Karstens face a similar schedule issue. I think you know where this is heading. Carl Pavano, the same guy who hasn't pitched since 2005, looks as if he will pitch on opening day against the Devil Rays. Who would have guessed? Labels: Pavano, Pitching |
