Yankee Purge of Zachs and Greens Continues!

First it was letting Zack Britton and Chad Green get to free agency. Now it's the loss of Zach Green in the Rule 5 Draft. 

When will it end? When. Will. It. End.

 Mets: RHP Zach Greene (Yankees)

We also lost 

Cardinals:RHP Wilking Rodriguez (Yankees)

W-Rod we hardly knew ye. 

Actually I've never heard of him. Wilking being one of the lesser known Rodriguezes.

Wonder how you decide on a first name such as "Wilking." Sounds like a compromise. A bad one.

Not good.

I think the Yankees have, or recently had, a player in the minors with a first name of Wilkins.

Actually there were 2. Most recently, in 2020, Wilkin Castillo played for Wilkes Barre and a decade or so prior there was Wilkins Arias. The former was a catcher, the latter a pitcher. Both never had a sniff of MLB.

the former was a hoodoo, while the latter was a cake;

In the history of Baseball, no team has ever won a World Series with a player named Wilking on the roster...you can look it up..
