Vote For The Worst.

You have one hour to dial in.

1-866-Worthless or 1-866-BallThief.


It's actually not a difficult choice.

I do enjoy, on a daily basis, the fact that Torre insists on batting Ball Thief eighth instead of ninth. It's delicious. It's the Bad Managing version of a philly cheesesteak and you can enjoy it every day without getting fat.

Can I prove that the Yankees would have won last night if Ball Thief had batted ninth instead of eighth? No, I can not prove it. But the Yankees would have won last night if Ball Thief had batted ninth instead of eighth.

My favorite moment was probably when he lined into a double play. Naturally, Posada was running on the pitch. It was a prime example of how the Yankees can do things offensively. Hitting into double plays is a thing.

I also remember a play a few games ago when the pitcher (Igawa?) threw the ball wildly to first base. Ball Thief came off the base and saved a run with his glove.

Doesn't necessarily make up for 11,000 runners left on base, but it was a thing. That he did. Because he can definitely do some things.
