"We're back to being the
Yankees again," said Mark Teixeira.
He may be right, but I wonder just
what Yankees team this edition is ‘back to being.’
I can’t recall a Yankee team
with a first baseman who essentially missed all of last season and had steady
declines in production the two previous - and a 40-year-old shortstop making an
announced farewell tour.
The Yankee infield is a lot like the revered Abbot & Costello’s ‘Who’s On First’ lineup - but the Yanks have ‘Who’ on 2nd. ‘I Don’t Know’ is still playing
third, but they weren't Yankees.
Oh, wait. Tex must mean that this off-season the Yankees spent nearly $500,000,000 to sign a singles hitting center fielder, a .250 catcher and a 40 year old outfielder. Now it makes sense
