Well folks:
When it comes to the two area baseball teams, I guessed I picked the wrong week to take vacation.
So much has happened since I last blogged that I don't even know where to begin -- from the Mets' epic collapse to another disappointing Yankee postseason to the latest saga surrounding Joe Torre's future in pinstripes.
And while both team's seasons are over, the questions are just beginning.
For the Yanks:
-- Who will manager the Yanks in 2008? Torre? Giraradi? Mattingly? LaRussa?
-- Will A-Rod return or opt out of his contract?
-- What does futures hold for World Series stalwarts Jorge Posada and Mariano Rivera?
For the Mets:
-- How much say will Willie Randolph have in selecting a coaching staff?
-- Could the Mets trade Jose Reyes or Carlos Delgado?
-- Is Tom Glavine returning, or is he Atlanta bound?
The questions are many and the answers should be fascinating.
New York baseball never seems to have an offseason.
Until next time, take care and God bless.
