It's been nearly a month since Buck Martinez criticized the New York Yankees.However, his comments haven't been forgotten.When the Blue Jays beat the Houston Astros on Sept. 9, the story wasn't about the final result (a 4-3 Toronto win). What most remember from that game were Martinez's comments in the seventh inning when he found out that the Detroit Tigers were pounding the Yankees."You know, the Yankees, they're not a good team.

If they don't hit home runs, they don't have a chance to win."Well, turns out that neither the fans nor Yankees manager Aaron Boone have forgotten his comments.“Contrary to some thoughts up here, we’re a really good team," Boone told reporters on Friday.Just in case it wasn't clear who Boone was talking about, he later clarified."I know...
