July 11, 200421 yr El Duque is pitching as good as he was in 2002...definitely a great edition to the yankees 2004 rotation, allowing the yanks not to trade prospects like Cano away for a starter. For once, a good cheap solution is at hand.
July 11, 200421 yr 5 innings 88 pitches ... 3 ER but still, first game in atleast a year and he did decent
July 11, 200421 yr 5 innings 88 pitches ... 3 ER but still, first game in atleast a year and he did decent 453160[/snapback] 2 ER...and this is coming off shoulder surgery and the guy is 38....another start or two and he'll have his A game(as if this was a bad start). Looking at this thread, I think the people who posted here are the only ones on this board who don't think the Yankees are the root of all evil

It seems Marsonek got his job done, too. A four game sweep is the perfect way to end the first half. :thumbup
July 12, 200421 yr It was a great day and Orlando looked like he was on cloud nine...here's some pics:
July 12, 200421 yr Author contrary to your paranoid fantasies, players and managers, not joe torre, name players onto the team.
July 12, 200421 yr yes, the greatest pitcher of all times is back. and he's 40, or 41, not 38. sorianofan, didn't we have a debate once about el duque, and you were hating on him big time?

July 12, 200421 yr yes, the greatest pitcher of all times is back. and he's 40, or 41, not 38. 454213[/snapback] Sorry, he's believed to be 38. Officially his birthday is listed in 1969(Player Bio) but on YES they said 38.
July 12, 200421 yr according to my memmory, he's 40 or 41. i've seen el duque pitch since the mid 80's. since i can remember he's been pitching. lazaro valle, the other star of my home team, is about 44 or 45 now, he wasn't much older than el duque.
July 12, 200421 yr From New York Post(http://nypost.com/sports/yankees/17957.htm)... Hernandez, who will turn either 35 or 39 in October, depending on who you believe, made his major-league debut against the Devil Rays stepping in for the injured David Cone in "that magical '98 season," GM Brian Cashman recalled yesterday ? noting the similarity to this fill-in performance for Mussina, who has a sore elbow.
