The New York Yankees may have found something in Tyler
Austin but it was possibly at the worst time for the young first baseman.
Austin has been played all over the diamond since being drafted by the Yankees
and was called up and given the first base duties basically out of necessity
and thankfully for the Yankees Austin caught fire and the team may have found
some lightening in a bottle. The bad news for Austin is that Mark Teixeira is
attempting, and successfully attempting thus far, a rehab program with his
knee, Chris Parmelee is almost back from his hamstring injury and the road to
the Major Leagues is just as blocked as ever for Austin.
It’s a shame that in New York the injuries have to pile up
and the player has to voice his opinion loudly enough o warrant a two week
suspension before the moves that so obviously need to be made get done. We’re
still rooting for you Tyler, keep proving them wrong! You beat cancer, you can
beat a couple ignorant front office people in the Yankees organization.
