Seriously When the Hell Do Tickets Go On Sale


Today is March 11th, we are less than 4 weeks away from the start of the baseball season and just a little over a month away from the opening of Yankee Stadium on April 16th, yet STILL single game tickets can not be found. The Yankee Website still does not even mention the phrase "Single Game Tickets" anywhere on their website. Nowhere, you can't find it. One month away and I still can't get a ticket without signing up for 18 more.

Why? Because the Yankees are struggling to sell their season tickets. The good folks at Fauk Youk (terrific name) caught a screen shot of the Yanks attempting to peddle Season tickets last night. Listen to the radio and you'll hear the same spot. They desperately want to sell the season tickets and that's why they continue to wait to sell the single games. I'm just getting a little impatient.

Numbers On Steroids: Mickey Mantle

Numbers on Steroids is a look at baseball players during the 90s to see if anything screams out at you. This week it's throwing a curve ball and looking at All Time Great Yankees. Players that we know did not take steroids to see if this gives a defense to any of the players 'convicted' by Numbers on Steroids. Time to look at my dad's favorite athlete of all time, Mickey Mantle. Averages Say: What's with the mysterious dip at 27 and then the uptick? At Bats Per Home Run Says: That's a mighty jump from 22 to 24 Explaining As If It Was the 90s If you take a look at the numbers there are two time frames which in the 1990s would be questioned. First would be the incredible leap he took from his first year in the big leagues to his first MVP season in 1956. His batting average jumped 50 points. His slugging percentage jumped 90 points and he hit 15 more homers than his previous high. This wouldn't merrit a conviction nowadays though because the young age he...

This Is Why the New York Mets Can't Win Anymore

It's pretty simple why the Mets can't win games anymore and are morphing into the second worst team in the National League, they can't score runs. The below chart shows exactly whats happenned to their offensive output since each of the major devastating injuries. The blue line shows runs scored for each game through out the season. The pink line shows the average runs the Mets scored when they had everyone, the yellow when they were missing Delgado, the light blue when they were missing Delgado and Reyes, and finally the purple when they were missing Delgado, Reyes and Beltran. In the abscence of Reyes, Delgado and Beltran the Mets are averaging barely over 3 runs per game. In stark contrast, with everyone on the roster the Mets were scoring just over 5 runs per game. That's a wholesale difference and why their roster now equals a lot of losses and a day by day progression further out of a playoff spot.
