Nobody wants a player of Cano's ability to get himself thrown out of a game, but could he at least show us he has a pulse?

Nobody wants a player of Cano's ability to get himself thrown out of a game, but could he at least show us he has a pulse?
"This is a very easy place to play now," said Tigers outfielder Quintin Berry, according to a report. "Coming from Oakland, the fans there were so rowdy. It was easier to come here."
Uh-oh. There's trouble in paradise. Hurt by jabs, jeers and insults from the home crowd, off-and-on fan favorite Swisher acknowledged Sunday he wasn't much in the mood for roll call at Yankee Stadium.
"The technology is available," said Girardi. "That's what our country has done. We have evolved technology to make things better. Yeah, let's have instant replay. And not just, not just home run, fair, foul. Let's have instant replay."
If Derek Jeter's on-field mortality indeed represents the death of Yankee dominance, then you can still say it was one helluva run. No matter when the end, all empires fall, even Evil ones.
The manager doesn't believe in panicking. The locker room doesn't believe in panicking. But if ever there was a time for it, with Derek Jeter done and the Yankees' hitters as lost as lost can be, this is it.
This team is begging for leaders, and Alex Rodriguez and Robinson Cano are the next in line. If they have it in them, they will be in line to receive the spoils of Yankee greatness. It not, this season will be over in just a couple days.
Detroit Tigers capitalized on a missed call by an umpire to beat New York 3-0 Sunday for a 2-0 lead in the AL championship series.
Yankees manager Joe Girardi has been ejected from Game 2 of the AL championship series after arguing what appeared to be a missed call by second base umpire Jeff Nelson.
The day of reckoning was always going to come for the Yankees, ever since the Steinbrenner brothers caved in and re-signed A-Rod.
The New York Yankees as underdogs? That's just what Joe Girardi's team has been transformed into as they prepare for the remainder of the postseason without Derek Jeter.
Some Yankees fans called Jeter the heart and soul of the team and questioned how the playoff run will go now that he's out.
Detroit Tigers outlasted the Yankees 6-4 Saturday night in an AL championship series opener in which Derek Jeter was helped off the field with what appeared to be a serious leg injury.
Derek Jeter was unable to put weight on his left leg and was helped off the field in the 12th inning of the American League championship series opener.
Sam Holbrook, the umpire who made the controversial infield fly call that enraged the Atlanta Braves and their fans in the NL wild card game, was picked as part of the crew for the AL championship series.
