Just for a day or so. He’ll need to hang around Jeter. The Yankees advanced age means their collective immune system is by far too emaciated to be able to forsake Pazuzu. Then, old Al will return to the fold at full strength, while Jeter will expedite his journey into the great abyss.

Apparently, Pazuzu leapt from Sarah Palin into Prince Albert during that ridiculous rally last year, and bided his time planting Glen Rice stories while waiting for the best possible moment to go to work on poor old Al.

One way to handle this, I guess, would be to keep Vernon Wells in close proximity to the quarter billion dollar baby and hope that Pazuzu will feel like jumping off again.

This is a net positive.

An outfield of Trout, Bourjos, and Trumbo is a good one. Certainly beats Wells/Trout/Hunter.

Vernon Wells the second makes a very good living as a painter.
