Just saw an interview with CC with Jill Martin during halftime of Monday night's Knicks-Timberwolves game and apparently he won't be attending Nick Swisher's wedding to Joanna Garcia this weekend in Palm Beach. CC told MSG reporter that he and his wife won't make it. "Sabathia  said, "We can't get a babysitter. I have four kids at home. My mother doesn't want to come out and babysit." then added, "We're going to have to just send a gift." See the interview here: http://video.msg.com/Home/CC-Sabathia-Boost-Mobile-Celebrity-Row-12-8
I would think he would be able to find a babysitter but hey you never know..

Anyone else hear about this? ? What do you guys think? ?

Was watching Boomer and Carton talk about his on their show yesterday and Carton was really Riled up about it.. http://video.msg.com/Home/Yankees-News-WFAN-s-Boomer-and-Carton-on-MSG-9-16

I think the Yankees definitely have a chance at winning it still .. But wheres the confidence here? They are going to need that confidence to go all the way if you ask me..

It appears that there are a lot of really good free agents available this year. I found a good list of them here: http://www.msg.com/our-teams/knicks ... I think they listed almost all of them on there.. who do you guys think will be going where?

I'm not sure what Lebron will be doing but I have the feeling that Bosh is going to be a big influence on his decision..

Found an interesting article on the guy here: here: http://www.msg.com/blogs/tina-cervasio/nate-grows-up-and-into-the-nba-finals-1.43809

Never rally knew to much bout the guy before but he looks good to me...

Heres my favorite part in the article: "“I won at the college level and high school, and winning is fun, but at the highest level of basketball, it’s awesome. Even when I don’t play, I see how these guys really, really take it to heart. Because, you know, that they know they can (win), and they know how (to win), it’s kinda indescribable, but it’s a great thing to be around, a great feeling.”

So next week is the last episode of The Lineup and they will be talking about the managers, they have a pretty good list to choose from on the site: http://www.msg.com/lineup and there is some info about them here: http://www.msg.com/photos/the-lineup-new-york-s-best-managers I picked my list based on team wins during the managers time. So heres my list:
Joe Torre
Joe McCarthy
John McGraw
Casey Stengel
Miller Huggins

What do you guys think?

They will be talking about Pitchers on the Lineup next week so lets talk about it here. This time instead of picking the top 5 for the position the split the position by starting and relief pitchers so they are only going to pick the top 3 for each.  http://www.msg.com/lineup  I found a gallery of some greats here: http://www.msg.com/photos/the-lineup-new-york-s-best-pitchers but I thought this was an easy pick,

Relief:
Mariano Rivera
Goose Gossage
Tug Mcgraw

Starters:
Tom Seaver
Christy Mathewson
Carl Hubbell

What you guys think?

Well Inning 8 has started, so its time to discuss Center field. There are so many great players to choose from, Here's a list of some: http://www.msg.com/2.1490

Well Inning 7 has started and next up is right field. Here's a gallery of the guys to choose from: http://www.msg.com/photos/the-lineup-new-york-s-best-rf I'm thinking this is a no brainier that Babe Ruth will take this one but 

Heres my picks for the game:
Babe Ruth
Mel Ott
Roger Maris
Reggie Jackson
Willie Keeler

What do you think? What are your top 5s?and don't forget to make your picks in the lineup game. http://msg.com/lineup

Inning 6 for the Lineup has started. They will be talking about the best Left fielders in New York history now.. so lets discuss it, I found a gallery of the guys to choose from here http://msg.com/photos/the-lineup-new-yorks-best-left-fielders/

Rickey Henderson
Monte Irvin
Bob Meusel
Zack Wheat
Lou Piniella

Inning 5 for the Lineup has started time to talk about the best shortstop in New York history.. I got some pics of the list to choose from here: http://www.msg.com/photos/the-lineup-new-yorks-best-shortstops/

I think it couls be argued that the best shortstop is the one that currently mans the position now .  So, i'm thinking Jeter will take this one but heres my lineup:
Derek Jeter
Jose Reyes
Pee Wee Reese
Monte Ward
Phil Rizzuto

Well what do you guys think?? And don't forget to make your picks for the lineup game if your following it: http://msg.com/lineup/

Inning 4 for the Lineup has started time to talk about the best third basemen in New York history.. I got some pics of the list to choose from here: http://msg.com/photos/the-lineup-new-yorks-best-3b/slide/1/

I had some trouble with these picks because its definitely a tought choice.  It could be argued that the two best 3rd basemen in NY history are the two who currently man the position in New York now.  But heres my list:

• Alex Rodriguez
• Graig Nettles
  
• David Wright
  
• Howard Johnson
  
• Wade Boggs

I might move stuff around in the Lineup game after we discuss it, and don't forget to make your picks! http://msg.com/lineup/

Inning 3 for the Lineup has started, time to make you picks for best second basemen in NY history http://msg.com/lineup/ . I think this pick is definitely going to be a bit tougher then first and catcher so lets talk about it here..

I also found a list and some pics of the New York second basemen greats here: http://msg.com/photos/the-lineup-new-yorks-best-2b/slide/1/

I'm going with:
Tony Lazzeri
Jackie Robinson
Joe Gordon
Frankie Frisch
Willie Randolph

Yogi was declared the best Catcher in the History of New York Baseball on last nights episode of the lineup.   Now lets talk about the best First Basemen in the history of New York Baseball..

Heres my top 5:

Lou Gehrig
Tino Martinez
Gil Hodges
Don Mattingly
Keith Hernandez

What do you guys think?

Also, be sure to TUNE-IN to tonight's episode (Tuesday, March 30th) starting at 10PM on MSG Network and see if your picks matched the panel!

Anyone else hear about the new baseball show called The Lineup on the MSG network, where a panel with people like Hall of Fame Mets catcher Gary Carter and former Yankee bullpen ace Sparky Lyle will determine the best baseball players in the history of NY? Sounds pretty cool and it looks like they will be talking about different positions every week and this week they are debating the best NY catchers. Heres a preview for the show: http://video.msg.com/Videos/MSG-Networks/The-Lineup-Preview-With-Fran-Healy-3-20

I just found this game where you can try to match your picks with the panel’s: www.msg.com/lineup/ If you play, you can win some autographed stuff. And When you watch the first show (Tues. 23rd at 10:30pm) you’ll know if your picks match the panel's.

These were my picks for best catcher…

Yogi Berra
Jorge Posada
Elston Howard
Thurman Munson
Bill Dickey

What do you guys think?? Who did you guys pick?

Thats us!!!! And now we can prove it.. I just found out that that Madison Square Garden wants to feature fans of the big east teams on their website: http://msg.com/collegehoops/ to see who has more school pride. I sent in some pics already and I think you guys should do the same. Just email them to collegehoops@thegarden.com and they will post them..
