We need to pick things up and fast.

Tim you may be kidding yourself but you aren't kidding us one bit. Frustrated? We are overjoyed!!! It has to be you who can't believe that with no Cano, Sheff, or Matsui and a streak of 16 of 17 wins that its August 2nd and we are tied. If you had told me that after Sheff went down after Matsui I would never have believed it was possible, never. Jeter is hitting .353 and unlike cro magnon man, he actually also turns gems in the field while the other guy is hanging on the bench with the waterboy.
Hes an awesome hitting specimen, and incredible in the clutch, but no way would I trade Jeters average and clutch hitting and fielding and base stealing for Ortiz, no way.
