Mark my words: the turnaround has begun. After an impressive sweep of the struggling White Sox, the Yankee bats are starting to come alive and Wang and Mussina put on a clinic in Chicago. So did the offense in the late innings of Thursday's 10-3 rout, with A-Rod casually hitting yet another grand slam in the 8th to seal the deal. Despite a near no-no from my least favorite pitcher in baseball, Curt Schilling, the Red Sox have lost 4 out of 5 and will graciously allow the Yanks to start getting in position by the All-Star break. Did I mention that the Rocket will be back on Saturday against the Pirates?By the way, congratulations to Torre on his 2,000th victory. Also, my final message to sports writers and commentators: the should George fire Torre? speculation must officially stop.
