Another dis for Kei: Scranton team photo taken without him


Don't know why he's not in there. Neither does Chad Jennings.
But when they took the Scranton-Wilkes Barre team photo recently, the man who is on the cusp of Scranton-Wilkes Barre immortality -- with Joe Biden and Harry Chapin (for that song about the tons of bananas) -- is not there.
Bad enough his pitching coach undermines him in a story. Or the Yanks don't even mention him when discussing options. Kei Igawa is one win away from becoming the winningest pitcher in franchise history, and he misses the team photo.
Like I say, don't know why.
Would the Yanks take the shot without CC or Andy?

    Isn't that him, over there in the grey Taipei hoodie, waving?

    You sure that is not him in the front row - 5 from the left?

    I think he has aged...still waiting for the callup.

    "But I watched him throw seven scoreless the other night and he wasn't very good. He didn't spot any of his pitches. He was elevated with every thing. He got away with murder. That's how I see it".

    Like Dracula, Kei doesn't photograph.
