Can Yusei Kikuchi?

The Yankees' management can't.  About the best they can do is "Shipoopi."

Another day, another free agent who might have helped us, signed with another team.

I'm surprised we haven't gone after Buddy Hackett.  He probably runs better than Troy.

  1. I could have sworn it was Stubby Kaye so I looked it up and it was indeed performed by Buddy Hackett. Never too old to learn something. In my defense, they have the same relative shape.

    As an aside, Buddy is one of the few old school comics on my bucket list that I did not get to see live. Basically, him and Moms Mabley. Pretty much caught the rest.

  2. Stubby Kay had a horse right here whose name was Paul Revere and later hosted the Saturday morning show "Shenanigans."

    Our management sucks.

  3. Yup, Stubby had that morning kiddie show where he was dressed up in a checkered suit, bow tie and straw hat. The show sucked by the way.

    And, Horace, the Yankees would sign Buddy Hackett to play short its just that Hal is too cheap to hire a reanimator to do his thing on Buddy's corpse. They cost more than a Japanese translator.

  4. "I'm talkin' Machado
    You know the kid can throw
    Though he don't always hustle just so you know.

    Can't do.
    Can't do.
    You know that Hal says the Yanks can't do.

    My pick is Bryce Harper
    He ain't no carper
    And he hits from the left like a superstar

    Can't do.
    Can't do.
    You know that Hal says the Yanks can't do."

  5. Just to finish it for you...

    If he says the Yanks can't do. Can't do. Can't do.

    Says Tulowitzki's fine
    ages just like fine wine
    we'll still make the wild card and we'll do fine...

    That is our epitath
    finish out 4 and a half
    make the fans want to go all Sylvia Plath.

    Bottom line.
    We'll do fine.
    Drink more wine.
    I've got our course. Right. Here.

    Chug turpentine...
    I've got our course. Right. Here.

    Turpentine goes more with the Plath concept.
