Yea your right. Google tells me our third base coach in 08 was Bobby Meacham.

Did we trade him for Berkman :sh
If so I'd call it an even deal ;)

Righty? :D

Looks like the Yanks are getting very close to signing Andruw Jones.

I saw that. Of the options out there he is definately the best one. They need a right handed power hitter off the bench that can actually play defense.

He's certainly an upgrade over Thames. At least Jones can still play the field. Thames did a nice job last year, but it was painful watching him play D when they needed him to.

Yes it was. Jones can play all three outfield positions. He also had a nice season last year.

Yankees signed Andruw Jones to be the 4th outfielder.

The news about the Soriano signing not being Cashmans decision sure is stirring up a lot of talk. Is that really of a big deal, the Boss used to do that from time to time.

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 
It's the NY media trying to make a story out of BS. I like the signing since it helps close down the game even earlier and hopefully he likes NY he can stay after Rivera retires ir he ever does retire.
