I don’t like the 2 year commitment for another 37-yr old player.<br><br>I think the in-house options should be given first crack at it. Mustelier seems to be a pretty damn good hitter and if you throw in a LH hitting platoon partner like Zoilo (who crushes RHP), I think you are fine until Curtis comes back.<br><br>This is where carrying a DH that can’t play a position really hurts. Had they brought back Ibanez instead of signing Hafner, they could play Ibanez in LF and use Nunez or anyone else as the everyday DH.fishjam25http://fishjam25.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2676591017018865408.post-79070581038278030602013-02-24T11:57:50.000-05:002013-02-24T11:57:50.000-05:00Keep it in house.Keep it in house.Matthew S.http://yankeesfansunite.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2676591017018865408.post-58508908413366169932013-02-24T14:52:40.000-05:002013-02-24T14:52:40.000-05:00fishjam, I agree with you, Musty and Zolio look li...fishjam, I agree with you, Musty and Zolio look like hitters, I like platooning them until Grandy gets back.

Damon and Abreu were absolutely terrible last yr and Sizemore just can't get healthy. I think the answer comes from within and if a guy like Dickerson gets cut late you think about it.fishjam25http://fishjam25.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
