Ken Phelps Not Recovering

The 2010 acquisition of Ken Phelps for the cost of Austin Jackson, Phil Coke and about 20 others, is not recovering.

He did swing a whiffle ball bat at a nerf baseball mounted on a tee yesterday, but he struck out twice and fouled to first. I should note that he was batting lefty, so this is kind of understandable.

His major progress since pulling up lame has been walking to Chucky Cheese for a training meal.

Distracted by his .224 batting average, many Yankee fans still feel that Cashman made a great mid-Winter trade for this new center fielder. Personally, I think we got screwed.

Hopefully, Ken will be able to return to a minor league assignment by the all star break.

The Johnny Damon replacement, meanwhile, is driving a garbage truck in Florida.

Thank goodness for the Twins at home.

  1. Having cured A-Rod with the negative juju, you're going after Granderson, eh?
