According to the Internet, interstellar wanderer Jeter "Oumuamua" Downs has cleared waivers and will settle down with the Yankees, home to his namesake. (And I don't mean Hugh Downs.) He will be invited to spring training as a middle infield lug nut and probably board a bus to Scranton. But you never know...
In the meantime, the frugal Yankees are said to be backing away from free agent closer Hector Neris, due to his price tag. Instead, they are pondering Keynan Middleton and Wandy Peralta, figuring either or both will come as a bargain.
These days, with Hal, it's always the same: Somebody's gotta go back and get a shitload a dimes.
Hey, E. Jean Carroll, wanna buy a team?
Oh well, New York City might just be rediscovering the Knicks. If they can win a few playoff rounds, the Yankee dominance on tabloid back pages is toast.

With all due respect, kind sir ED - I’d rather that Leo G. Carroll buy the team.
Even if he is dead - he’d likely do a superior job than the other dead bodies currently running the show.
I thought Oumuamua was a key lyric in "Surfin' Bird."
AA -
When I first moved to LA I lived in an apartment in the lower Hollywood Hills. My PM walk went right past Leo G. Caroll's house.
Never saw him. I did see a young couple and their St. Bernard drinking martinis though. Strange.
Well, you know, Doug. It's just those Hollywood nights. In those Hollywood hills...
Yeah, speaking of your back pages, can anyone remember the last time the Yankees were SEVENTH? In a town that still doesn't have a real winner to speak of?
But HAL figures he can still make money this way. Hey, I'm sure he's right.
My cousin had a St. Bernard that drank martinis, but only when company was over. His private load was Jack Daniels, something I never could understand.
Neris to cubs 1 @ 9M
I was going to post a comment about Leo G.Carroll but I could not come up with one that would be a Topper.
Neris spelled backwards is Siren.
Woophee damn doo. Thanks for the info.
I heard Hal went up $42.50hr for Neris, still didn’t get him though
A Neris too faris.
