Comments on: The search for a catcher http://yankees.lhblogs.com/2008/04/28/the-search-for-a-catcher/ A New York Yankees blog by Chad Jennings and the staff of The Journal News Fri, 10 Feb 2012 13:06:31 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Rocky Balboa http://yankees.lhblogs.com/2008/04/28/the-search-for-a-catcher/comment-page-7/#comment-334031 Rocky Balboa Thu, 01 May 2008 15:00:43 +0000 http://yankees.lhblogs.com/2008/04/28/the-search-for-a-catcher/#comment-334031 BRIAN BERKE....you hate the Yankees and their fans so much, get the F#ck off of the Yankees chat page and go back to your box under the bridge!! Nobody asked you to join this page you jealous jacka$$!! Now back to baseball. Molina is one of the better defensive catchers in baseball and will do just fine along with Chad M. The major problem is that Giambi is done...Cano will swing at anything you could possibly throw up there...Jeets range is down to 3 inches....ARod is on the DL...The Rooks need more time to learn....Hawkins and Farnsy are horrible....Moose is living on a prayer...and coach Joe is making some mighty strange calls sitting his only guys that are hitting...and catching Steward in his Yanks debut with a struggling 21 year old in Hughes. Anyone see that game? He got crossed up what, 7 times? Hughes needs Molina to catch him...save Stewart for a vet like Moose! Other than all of that, our beloved team looks great!! LOL!! Hopefully they turn it around like every year...but I'm feeling this year is different than last unfortunately. :( BRIAN BERKE….you hate the Yankees and their fans so much, get the F#ck off of the Yankees chat page and go back to your box under the bridge!!

They care carrying 3 Catchers right now and an unhappy Ryan Freel. Yanks could get another switch hitter Javier Valentin and Freel for the now unnecessary Wilson Betemit and some minor leaguer. Freel is one of those guys the Yankees need; he could be our Chone Figgins. I believe that the Yanks should talk to the Reds about making a deal.

Inge is clearly isn’t happy in Detriot anymore and the Tigers been wanting Fransworth back for 2 years already." That has to be the worst trade proposal I have ever heard. We already lost Bruney for the year and we need Farnsworth. Plus why would we trade a key player for someone who would eventually be a 3rd string C? Dont get me wrong Inge is a good player but he is much better in CF or 3B and him coming here wouldnt solve any of his problems. He is already unhappy with his current bench role in Detroit. Also why would Detroit want to do that? Sheff is injured pretty bad and is contemplating retirement. If that happens Inge will be a starter. “What are the odds the Red Sox claim Moeller just to screw the Yankees?” None. Its not like Moeller is THAT great he did well for us but come on...Is he really that much better then Miller or Fasano? "Mirabelli’s intriguing only cuz he always kills us." So what he was released and is no longer playing for anyone. Its not like we are trading for him to get him off a team we have to constantly face. HE SUCKS. Easily the worst option. “how about the trading with the Tigers for Brandon Inge for Fransworth and prospect or two?
