David Cone, who according to some rumors, actually got caught doing in the bullpen what he freudianly slips during this clip from a Yankee game broadcasted live on YES.

Neil Best’s media blog on Newsday reports that Tom Verducci will no longer appear on YES network’s “Yankees Hot Stove.” because of comments in his recent SI.com column where he called Yankee ownership ‘disorganized’ and ‘cowardly’.

YES spokesman Eric Handler made this statment regarding Verducci

“recent remarks pertaining to the Yankees’ ownership were extremely personal and cutting, and we decided it would not be in our interests to have him on the show going forward.

“Also, Tom is collaborating with Joe Torre on a second book. It’s unfortunate, but we figured it was an action that had to be taken. We appreciate the work he’s done for us in the past.”

“The recent disclosure of Tom’s collaboration with Torre on yet another book highlights a conflict in his ability to write a balanced column about Torre’s departure from the Yankees,” Handler said.

SI.com’s Jon Heyman has replaced Verducci on the show, and appeared on Thursday night.

From Newsday…

SNY has been criticized for their on air fumbles and now we lose Willie Randolph in the shuffle. SNY teased a Willie Randolph post game interview, pretty standard, but never returned or offered an explanation why it was not aired.

YES gets no love from Torre either. Joe has declined their request to do a post game one on one with YES reporters and are forced to get in the back of the pack with the rest of the press.

Are you kidding me? You won 11 games as a Yankee. You won 94 as a Met, yet you have to end your career as a pinstripe and then go to YES to join the rest of those losers. I mean cmon Al, are you that big of a baby cause Omar wouldn't offer you 2 million to be awful? You know you'll come crawling back here when YES gets tired of your shit. Discraziado!
