Shelley Duncan is Coming

The former -- and perhaps greatest -- IIH Yankee Employee of the Month has gotten the call.

Im looking forward to this. Lets hope he goes on another HR streak and sticks as a bench bat.

Get real, everyone.

The league has learned the following lesson:

If Shelly Duncan gets an at batr, do not, i repeat, do not throw any fastballs.

He cannot now, or ever wil, hit a major league breaking ball.

And if you think watching Nick Swisher play outfield is an adventure, this guy plays as though he is blind, on roller skates. and starts every play facing the right field wall.

Yeah, he might be a bust up here, strike out a lot, and make Swish look like Roberto Clemente, but I'm really glad that this happened. Shelley deserved this call up with the way he's been playing in AAA.

Alphonso said...

Scott Ghost,

He does deserve it.

He does not deserve what is about to happen to him.

He is likely back on the bus to Scranton already.

I hope not. I liked Cody, but he has had his shot and done little. Better he goes back to Pa. than Shelly.

BUt how comfortable can we be with Hairston ot 3rd?

I mean, is Cashman nuts?

Are we still training Pena to play outfield?
