Gordon was a questionable pick, but you cannot just look at win-loss records when looking at how a pitcher is doing. ERA, strikeouts, K/BB ratio are more important. I'll agree that Giambi was definitely not deserving though, and with the Jeter and A-Rod picks...I mean come on, it wasn't as if they were way off (both have numbers comparable to the best at their positions this year). Every manager picks more of his guys - but remember, Torre didn't pick the starters, we (the fans) did. He picked the reserves, and I don't think he did a bad job at all of that.
As for Soriano - I would trade him again for A-Rod in a second. They didn't release him, they traded him for one of the top players of our generation. Soriano is a solid player, no doubt; but you can't question him for A-Rod.
As for the Posada for Johnson rumors - hopefully they're just rumors, I'm not completely sold that Navarro will be the answer anytime soon, and the Yankees have NO ONE else to catch. Just doesn't make sense.

Do the coaches not select the reserve slots? This policy went under review after last year's game...
