McCutchen, Melky, Selig y el promedio

El espectáculo de los Yankees fuera del terreno es tan interesante, como dentro de Yankee Stadium. Ayer jueves amanecieron en primer lugar del este, y con el cuarto mejor record de los 30 equipos (77-59), sin embargo, el mánager Joe Girardi recibió consejos de dos que han dirigido en Grandes Ligas, Joe Torre y Terry Francona, acerca de cómo ganar. ¡Vaya usted a saber!...

"Por fin, ¿qué fue lo que Songo le dio a Borondongo?"... Anónimo.

** GRACIAS a tantos lectores, porque fueron 592 de cinco países, que enviaron emails extrañados porque la columna no se publicó anteayer miércoles. Casi todos mostraron preocupación por mi salud. Estoy bien. Quien enfermó fue mi laptop, con una virosis perniciosa. Pero ya trabaja, porque la trató mi amigo y maestro en la especialidad Luis (Lucho) Muga, quien hace milagros...

** ¡CONFIRMADO! El espectáculo de los Yankees fuera del terreno es tan interesante, como dentro de Yankee Stadium. Ayer jueves amanecieron en primer lugar del este, y con el cuarto mejor record de los 30 equipos (77-59), sin embargo, el mánager Joe Girardi recibió consejos de dos que han dirigido en Grandes Ligas, Joe Torre y Terry Francona, acerca de cómo ganar. ¡Vaya usted a saber!...

** ROGER Clemens, quien abrirá esta noche el juego de los Skeeters de Sugar Land, Texas, no toma en serio la liga independiente donde ahora lanza, según sus propias palabras. Dijo que no intenta aparecer otra vez en Grandes Ligas, y que solo está divirtiéndose...

** ANOTEN por ahí dos nombres que van a sonar mucho en Grandes Ligas a partir de los próximos entrenamientos...: Darin (Babe) Ruf, doble A de los Phillies, y Wil Myers, triple A de los Royals, los dos outfielders. Los scouts los ven así de grandes...

"Lo único malo del examen médico es que no puedo enviar a otro por mí"... Pacomio.

** CHRIS Carpentier (Cardenales), ya en sus 37 años de edad, reaparecerá la semana que viene en la Mayores, a tiempo para la lucha final. Regresa de la operación que le practicaron en julio para sanarlo de problemas nerviosos en el costado derecho...

** LA SERIE divisional de este año será dos juegos aquí y tres allá, si es que hacen falta. Hasta el año pasado fue 2-2-1... ** LOS DOS equipos que piensa eliminar en la Liga Mexicana de verano (reducción de 16 a 14) son los Broncos de Reynosa y los Petroleros de Minatitlán, según me informa Fernando Ballesteros. Sin embargo, esperarán hasta diciembre para la decisión final...

** EL MÁNAGER del año en la Liga del Pacífico (AAA) fue Lorenzo Bundy, de los Isótopes de Albuquerque (Dodgers). Lorenzo, de 53 años, es ya buen candidato para dirigir un equipo grande. Yo que les digo...

** ANDREW McCutchen (Piratas), llegó al juego de esta noche, cuando estarán allá los Cachorros de visita, bateando para 345. Creo que más que McCutchen, es el comisionado Bud Selig quien desea que esos números suban siquiera hasta 347 al terminar la temporada, porque así no tendría que decidir si se considera campeón o no al suspendido dominicano Melky Cabrera, quien dejó promedio de 346 cuando fue suspendido por 50 juegos...

"Los viejos necesitamos que nos oigan y nos dejen ver sonrisas"... Pacomio.

Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto, incluso un lector como tú... jbeisbol5@aol.com5

Even for a team with a record of futility unmatched in professional baseball and, heck, all of professional sports, this season has been one of the most dismal in Cubs history. About the only good thing that could be said about a team poised to lose 100 games for the first time in 46 years--one of which came after the shortstop trotted off the field thinking there were three outs instead of two--is that it is doing so in front of fewer fans than any year in the last decade.
