I am a Yank fan for many yrs, but is it my imagination or is the average age of the Yankee line between 35-40 yr old??

Maybe one of the hitting coaches in the Yankee system can get the bugs worked out of his swing.

Something tells me he may struggle in NY as well, although I will be pulling for him. Plays hard, gives max effort every day but as previously mentioned, can be incredibly frustrating to the more than casual fan.

The squeeze will come when they decide how many of their NRIs they will keep: Ben Francisco, Juan Rivera, Dan Johnson, and Matt Diaz.

That short porch in right-center will lure baseballs from Boesch’s bat to the tune of 15 HR’s at home if he gets enough PT.

Iffy range and wild but decently strong arm….meh. He’s gonna frustrate the crap outta Yankee fans….he does play hatd and is quick to 1b for a big guy

Dan Johnson ?

Boesch and Francisco are just what the Yankees need. Can’t wait to see them in pinstripes.

Now, if the Mets will take Don Kelly…

Thank you, Craig, for our daily dose of Tigers awesomeness. <3

(I hope you're paying attention, Aaron.)
