When we started Bleeding Yankee Blue we were just happy to get readers. The ones that we have now, you, are so loyal we couldn't be happier and we love interacting with you all on Twitter and Facebook... it's alot of fun, so thank you for your support.



In doing my daily reading through the sports pages, looking for a nugget, I can across Mark Simon from ESPN and his piece titled simply YANKEES AT TWINS and he goes through the players that no doubt will be looked at closely today... AJ Burnett, Francisco Liriano, today's pitchers as well as red hot Curtis Granderson, Nick Swisher and David Robertson where he wrote this:



"David Robertson who got a day off yesterday, has been amazing in his last nine outings, allowing two hits and no walks in 9 2/3 innings pitched. One intrepid blogger has even started a Cy Young campaign for him."(Photo: Getty)

I was curious, who could the intrepid blogger be? No idea, but I had to click. Luckily... it was BYB and Mikey's piece titled WHY DAVID ROBERTSON IS CY YOUNG WORTHY. Needless to say, we are excited and as the head of Bleeding Yankee Blue I wanted to personally thank Mark Simon for the mention, and, for even noticing. It seems sometimes when us bloggers even try and communicate with these writers, we don't even get a response, like we're not worthy of it. I just want to say we appreciate you acknowledging that we have a voice too, even if we are intrepid... or bold, or courageous, whatever you want to call us. The best part of what we do here at Bleeding Yankee Blue is write from our hearts; we're all Yankee fans, I think that's what makes us unique, don't you think?
