I watched the Yankees get their butts kicked by the Phillies the other day. I know that they don't go all out in these exhibition games, but still.... At least I got to see Johnny Damon in pinstripes. A little weird, but not terrible. He sounds and looks like he's really trying to be a team player, something that NEVER would have happened with Manny Ramirez.

And, btw, with all the NY talk about spring training, I am so sick of hearing about Pedro's toe. His big toe is sore, and he can't pitch. Some sneaker company (I think it was Nike) was going to actually make him a custom shoe to ease his toe pain. It's actually gotten to the point where it's a bit amusing to keep reading these huge headlines about Pedro's toe.
