What they obtained, and who is now, the best infielder on this <br />squad. Hands down.<br />Yes, I know he can't hit well. But, he is an upper echelon infield replacement. Maybe the second best, in<br />all off baseball. He can play short, 3rd, and 2nd. He is not paid to hit.<br />Remember all those guys they brought in ? Some for only a few days ? Awful memories.<br />On top of his talent, he is a decent guy. Enjoy his words I tacked on below.<br /><br />“I relate to the fans a lot. I still pinch myself,” said Ryan, who turns 32 on March 26. “Here I am: I’m insurance to THE Derek Jeter. That’s pretty special. It’s something I’ll tell my kids about. Whether there’s a tremendous amount of glory or not, I think the experience will be super, super special. Something I’ll never forget.”<br />* Lifted from the New York Post..3/17.

A wonderful, humorous talent.<br />Better than anything Yankee Fans Unite had combined, and he was trashed.
