Not Even Boras

It's an indication of just how often the Ever-Injured Ellsbury is, well, injured, that not even Scott Boras popped up to defend him yesterday.

Usually you could count on Boras, the man I want shepherding me through life, to say something along the lines of, "We're very hopeful this flu bug will heal that pesky oblique!" or some such nonsense.

Nope, not this time.

How does one get the flu, in Florida, while resting up from an injury? Only Carl Pavano would know the answer.

But meanwhile, my Cousin Dan, fresh from his morning round of throwing marshmallows to the gators, has come up with a blues song on his banjo:

"Poor ol' Ellsbury
He got that flu
The o-bleak went an' grab him, too
I got the Jacoby blues
Them mean old, lean old, can't stay on the field old blues..."

Well, needs work.

The Yankees actually got a teeny, tiny little article from Billywitz today in the Times, thanks to the titanically stupid plan to go play in London. (I smell road trip!). But that only offset a big piece on how the Chelsea club is owned by a Russian. And has been since 2003. (Duque, you are already a prophet.)

Soccer 45, Yankees 24 for the year, Soccer 18, Yankees 9 for March.

I thought the lyrics were pretty good, as is.

And here we are, the set up is almost perfect.

Ells is DLed, Hicks is full time. Hicks reverts to the Hicks that has always been, minus that freak period before he got hurt last year.

Cave is gone. Red's head might still be ringing.

Gardy moves to center. Clank Stanton in left, McKinney comes up, maybe shows he's a better left fielder with some pop, Clank goes to DH.

It could work. Now we have to do something about Ian Dury, the blockhead on third.
