It’s Only April, but …

It’s only April, and losing three games in embarrassing fashion to the Red Sox is no reason for the Dumbrenners to fire Cashman and Girardi and start to trade away all our top prospects for over the hill veterans in order to try to salvage the inaugural season at the new Yankee Stadium.
