Mike “Pizza” Piazza
Last year I threw around the idea of having Mike Piazza play for the Yankees as a part time catcher/DH. I wonder if anyone feels we should go after him this offseason? Use him as a Catcher (40 games), DH (40 games) and then as a right handed bat off the bench late in games.
Get him maybe 400 AB’s. I read he still wants to catch which may be a problem. He also does not fit the defensive backup/no hit that the Yankees have used in the past. He basically cannot throw out anyone stealing a base. If we could sign him for 3-4 million a year, should we? Or should we avoid him?
