Friday the 13th
It has at times been a pretty ugly offseason for the Yankees with Torre’s book and the recent A-rod steroid scandal but there is a happy ending. Spring training officially starts tomorrow.
It has been a very good offseason. Tex is a huge upgrade at the plate and in the field over Giambi. Cano should improve. A-rod and Jeter are in their prime. Nady, Swisher and Damon on the corners looks good. Hopefully CF will develop. The Yankees have depth at starting pitching for the first time in a while. CC, AJ, the Wanger, Joba and Pettitte are a good starting 5. Hughes, Kennedy and Aceves as well as some other young arms adds depth. The bullpen also has a lot of competition and should be pretty deep. The Yankees have been stockpiling young arms and starting this year we should start to see some results. Robertson, Melancon, Coke, Sanchez could all make an impact this year out of the pen.
