Surprise Yankee
Jason Giambi is on fire!
Well what do you expect, he admitted to using steriods, he was on the verge of being sent to the minors, and playing in New York. Who could get anything going with all that pressure.
Well as most of you know the Boss has been making 'statements' over the last week, he turned 75 yesterday, he's talked about turning the team over to his son-in-law (which is dumb, he should be turning the team over to The Fu2rman).
Nobody has been talking about Giambi, and low-and-behold, Giambi has started hitting. Today he went 3-4 with homerun and 2 RBI's to raise his average to .268, and left the game to a standing O in the 6th inning. Add yesterdays 2-3 and 3 RBI's, oh, and both hits were homeruns.
Over the last week he's hitting .400 with 3 homeruns, and 5 RBI's, not a bad week for Jason.
One last thing for the day about the Yankees, despite playing badly, and everyone talking about what a bust this team is, the Yanks are only 4 games out of first.
As of right now, the Yankees are up 12-2 in the 7th against 2nd place Baltimore, and the first place Red Sox have to play a pretty solid Texas Ranger team, in Texas, where they were defeated last night.
Yankee fans, you can start coming out of hiding.

hey Giambi had a great game! DAMN!
BTW, I forgot to mention, the Yanks had a breakthrough this week.
For the first time this year they won a game in which they scored less than 3 runs.
Albeit against Detroit, but Mariano Rivera is closing games like the old Mariano.
Which is more than you can say for Boston's tanking closer Keith Folke.
Keep an eye on the Bombers in the second half.
