I believe that he just took a job with The Marlins.

To clarify, that was not intended to be snark. I did not mean that since Stacey was born in the mid-70s, s/he is now an adult….that would have been funny.

What I meant was that it was a mature (i.e. adult) attitude to have towards former players that are real people and go on to have jobs with other teams…possibly even a hated rival.

I’d rather not see Tino in that filthy Red Sox gear, but I’m actually more upset that Kevin Long is still the Yankees hitting coach.

Tino was absolutely terrible on “Baseball Tonight” When he talked it looked like he was being held hostage and forced to read a terrorist’s agenda.

Wouldn’t mind him as a coach, if the yankees want him bad enough they won’t let the Red Sox have him

I think it makes you an adult.

I’m one of the biggest Yankee fans around, have been since birth (mid 70s) and I don’t care if Tino works for the Red Sox.

Does this make me a bad fan?

You know who says that it’s okay for Tino to take this job? That group of Mr. Benjamin’s waiting for him to put on his Red Sox duds.

And he will gladly do it.

Who cares really? It’s silly. The Red Sox/Yankees THING is so overdone and it’s not even real.
