The New York Yankees went for a bit of veteran depth, a warm
body at first base and for some nostalgia last week when they officially signed
Nick Swisher to a minor league deal. Swisher came over in a trade from the
Chicago White Sox in the winter before the 2009 season and spent four of the
best seasons of his career in the Bronx including a World Series championship
in 2009 before leaving for greener pastures, greener being more money, in
Cleveland before the 2013 season. Swisher has struggled since both in the stat
column and in the staying healthy department since leaving New York but he has
played his best baseball in the Bronx and if his first game back with the
organization is any indicator of things to come, he had a 2-4 night with
Scranton, then he may be in the midst of another “Back in the New York Groove”
kind of season.
Watch out A Rod, Nick Swisher might be coming:
