To Girardi and Gasol

Tonights blog is dedicated to Joe Girardi and Pau Gasol. Last night the Yankees won 5-4 to take two out of three from the Texas Rangers. Good win for the Yanks. The part of the game I'm gonna grill is the 7th inning. The Yankees were up 4-3 and Joba came into pitch. Joba went on to give up a few its and the game was tied. Costing another decision for CC. After the game CC was asked if he was mad at his manger for being taken out and being the good guy he is of course he said no. But if I was Joe I would've avoided the controversy and either left CC in or brought in the more reliable Dave Robertson. Instead now CC is struggling with his confidence after pitching to the tune of an ERA under 2 and not yet getting a win in his first four starts. Let's put the Joba is the man crap behind us and make sure the ace is treated like an ace. Now onto my second topic and person Pau Gasol. Yesterday the Lakers lost 100-109 in game 1 to the Hornets. A good competitive game that I'm only gonna mention two plays from. With about 4 minutes to go the Hornets held a two point lead. Chris Paul dribbled up, went off the Aaron Gray screen into a defensive nigthtmare by being guarded by big man Pau Gasol. Paul broke him down and nailed a jumper of the big guy. On the next posession the same thing happened again. Four points occured with the wrong defenders on men. If I was Pau I would've went back and guarded my man and left Paul open at least then I wouldn't be the joke of the league. I mean Pau it's simple roll off the screen, hedge and then get back to your man. I mean right when it happened I thought immediatley to the Big East Tourney when Kemba put Gary McGee in a straight jacket to win the game. Pau you can't guard him so next time get back on Gray then I will be grilling Dereck Fisher instead. Thanks for reading send me questions. I'm Out!
