There Is Panic In The Yankee Suite

My Mac is corrupted at the moment, so I can only post words on this I - pad.

The Yankees are already talking about throwing in the towel on Refsnyder ( who fields like Nunez......don't all of our young infielders?), and trading the farm for a Braves AAA second baseman.

Maybe he'll be as helpful in a few years as McCann.  The talk is we dump Refsnyder, Pirela and
 Sanchez.  The only thing is: the Braves want Sevarino, too.  What a bargain.

And, with luck, we'll get another bozo of Didi's quality.

So Joe is now saying, " let's keep in mind, Didi's is starting at 25......"  Yeah.  So what?  I can point out a pouch full of mlb players who are starting much younger than that and playing like professionals.

In the end.  This is all Cashman's fault.  His terrible scouts, incompetent talent evaluators, the coaches who cannot develop skills in players.  It is all on him.

    Pretty good for an iPad post.

    Is Dooley Womack available?

    Doesn't Didi remind anyone of Phil Linz? A supposedly good shortstop who just stunk up the place when Kubek went down?

    Other eerie echos of the 1965/66 team:

    McCann -- Elston Howard
    Teixeira -- Mantle
    Sabathia -- Ford
    Tanaka -- Bouton
    Drew -- Horace Clarke
    Gardner -- Tom Tresh
    Ellsbury -- Maris

    Oooooh, this is great. More '65-'66 comparisons:

    Headley -- Clete Boyer
    Young -- Hector Lopez
    Betances -- Pedro Ramos
    Murphy -- Jake Gibbs/Doc Edwards

    Looking for a Pepitone; where or where is Joe Pepitone?
