Yankee linkapalooza
Here are some links from the Yankosphere to tide you over until the Yankees’ 10pm start time tonight.
- Though has (rightfully) received heaps of praise for his remarkable turnaround season, the Pinstriped Bible’s Jay Jaffe took a look at the fine season Freddy Garcia — the Yankees’ other much-maligned offseason acquisition — is having.
- Jay’s Bible Study compatriot Cliff Corcoran has a great look at how the Yankee offense has thrived against some of the top pitchers in the American League.
- Our own William J., who has also been moonlighting at the grandaddy of all Yankee blogs, Alex Belth’s Bronx Banter, has a spectacular piece finally dispelling the myth of A-Rod’s supposed unclutchness once and for all. Next time some idiot Yankee fan friend of yours tries to argue that is a choker, make sure you have this masterful analysis bookmarked in your iPhone or BlackBerry so you can instantly serve them.
- SG at RLYW shows us that the Yankees have played even better than their won-loss record would indicate.
- In a piece at Fangraphs, RAB’s Joe Pawlikowski reveals the horrifying truth that the Yankees have gotten the least production out of the Designated Hitter slot of any team in the American League.
- And in case you missed it earlier today, I broke the Yankees’ run-scoring down by inning and compared it to both the rest of the AL and Yankee teams from the previous five seasons.

“the Yankees have gotten the least production out of the Designated Hitter slot of any team in the American League.”
And yet Po is the DH again tonight.

It’s a tough situation. It may be necessary to release Posada if he doesn’t come around very quickly. If it comes to that, I hope they can do it some way that keeps Posada in the Yankee fold. (And by “they” I mean both the Yankees and Posada. They both have to want to make nice.)

I’d like to see the Yankees work out a deal with the White Sox for Carlos Quentin, and Edwin Jackson. It would probably be a 4-2 or possibly 5-2 trade but it wouldn’t cost Banuelos or Montero, they may ask, but it wouldn’t happen. The Yankees would have to part with Betances, Romine is probably a must add, and I would imagine a couple pitchers like Noesi, Nova, or Warren would be thrown in. The deal would bring back a nice middle of the rotation arm, and Quientin could be the primary DH this season, spelling Swisher on occasion in the field. Then if the Yankees decide they won’t want to pick up Nick’s option, Carlos would be an in house replacement for Swisher next year.
