Ode 2 Jeff Weaver...

4 those that missed it on CH5 last night:

==================
Ode to Jeff Weaver
==================

There once was a starter named Weaver,
his coach said: Make me a believer,
He stepped on the mound,
got hit out the ground;
Thus Weaver became The Reliever.
It was deep in the eigth,
when despite Torre's faith,
he gave up three hits in-a-row,
At the end of the day its about E.R.A.,
and Weaver's is five-point-eight-O.

Poor Jeff Weaver. I really think for him and for NYY he needs to get the
heck out of New York. Someone needs to get hold of him and tattoo the
following 5 words on his forehead.

Sinker, down in the zone.

Once he does that on a consistent basis I think he can start getting people
out again. Right now though, he can't find a way to relieve all the pressure
that's been built up on him. If I was a GM in a small market I'd be thinking
very hard about offering NYY something for him come the end of the season,
because I have a feeling someone could get a bargain.
