Our new franchise relief pitcher has gotten his wish.
He can wear the number "0" in pinstripes.
It is so clever because he is the first Yankee to wear that numeral, and because his name begins and ends with the letter "O."
So is zero and the letter "O" the same?
Have we crossed an intellectual barrier?
In any case, we have our guy:

A fair warning;
Don't expect players from the Rockies to perform as well at sea level as they did at altitude.
I think we have more frosting than cake.

Alphonso, your warning about Rockies players reminds me of something that somehow slipped past the editors of the Times sports page, c. 1981 or so.
It was written by Sidney Zion, of all people, and it made the charge that there were altogether too many former Cubbies on the Yankees.
This was rather unfair. At the time, there were only five Yankees who had played in the Cubs' organization, and that was only if you counted Bobby Murcer.
But he had a point. "Too many guys," as I remember him writing, "with the baby bears on their uniforms."
What we have now is too many guys who have worn the mellow, azure line of the Rockies at sunset on their uniforms. Break out the Coors Lite and the John Denver.
Careful wearing 0 in New York.
Zero can mean 0.00 ERA. But we've seen stuff.
Zero can also mean zero wins, zero strikeouts or zero saves, for example...
Not good in New York to be one big zero...but, hey, I'm not him.
I have a strong feeling that we wont see a 0 in Monument Park.
Pass the salad, please...
Judging by the birthday pic, he and Hal will enjoy sharing Hal's kinky boots.
