| The Future of the Outfield May Be in BUBBA CROSBY’S Hands |
| Friday, November 04, 2005 |
 He looks awesome in that AAA Columbus uniform, doesn't he?
As if to play on our worst nightmares, the Newark Star-Ledger reported this morning: - - -"According to a person present at this week's organizational meetings, some at the sessions were in favor of trying Crosby rather than overpaying for a center fielder. " - - -
Now, I highly doubt that I am the only Yankees fan who is going to read this and kick my computer with a steel-toed boot, and truth be told, I bet I would be hard-pressed to find any fan who would support an asinine move like this. This seems like a very poor time to be scrimping and saving, especially in the outfield. While I will concede that pitching is more likely to be the number one concern for management when it comes to contracts and overpaying athletes, our outfield absolutely needs to a top priority. It is not as if there are no options. We have boys in the minors that are tearing up the field, and very available experienced players like Milton Bradley and Torii (!) Hunter are available as well. I do agree that players are being overpaid, but using Bubba Crosby as a starting outfielder as an alternative is simply not the answer. I get frightened enough when Bubba comes in to pinch hit; I really don’t think my nervous system could handle it if Bubba was in the daily lineup. |
