Two weeks ago, you nearly made a trade that would have cemented your Yankee eternal legacy in a dingy underground Hell, visited regularly by the apparitions of Doug Drabek and Jay Buhner.
You almost sent Jesus Montero to Seattle for a three-month flyover by Cliff Lee.
Why? Because you lost faith in the Yankees.
This is why people across the globe struggle to keep Jesus not only in their hearts but behind their plate. Many become cynical, lose faith in the Yankees and trade Jesus to their personal Seattle, for three months of the intoxicant known as Cliff Lee.
The result: They become crack whores, suicide assassins and Century 21 realtors.
Yes... an eternity of Hell... for three months of Cliff Lee.
Listen: It will take two years for Jesus to start saving the Yankees. He must master the position of Receiver. By next July, he will be our fulltime DH and Jorge backup, learning from the Yankee saints themselves: Jorge, Jeet, Andy, Mariano and others who have seen the White Pinstripe of Yankee Pride, and whose souls have been cleansed of all previous teams for which they toiled
Catching is 99 percent desire. They once said Yogi could not call a game. They once said Jorge, a converted infielder, was starting too late. Now, they say Jesus is too large.
Show faith. Keep Jesus in your heart... and on your roster.
We can beat the Redsocks. We can beat the Rangers. We can fix our bullpen and boost our bench.
If you forsake Jesus, you will be haunted forever. That dugout will get crowded, listening to Buhner and Drabek. Save your soul, sir. And save our next decade.
