I still think this weekend is a big series in terms of building momentum towards respectability. It really hurts not having Garza throw on Monday. You have your two worst arms (Jackson, Hammel) throwing with the Yanks two best (Wang, Pettite) schedule to go. Tough break. Plus no Kid K. The Rays have to use their speed, taking every base possible. The Yanks catchers are suspect throwing out baserunners, so I'd green light half the team. Very important to get some cheap runs and provide every opportunity to get runners in scoring position. Let's hope the weather holds up. Good review and I agree with most of your assesments.
