i know 1B is considered a less important defensive position (except when lefties are up) but having the ball in mark teixeira’s hand and the end of most plays is going to make a difference. guys could round bags like crazy on giambi, knowing that he was never going to throw the ball unless he absolutly had to.
i dont know how good tex’s arm is but it cant be anywhere near a lame as big g’s was.
CC gets a lot of crap for being “fat” but he really doesn’t seem like a chunky guy. He’s just a big dude and he tends to wear baggy uniforms which make him look fatter. This guy is NOT David Wells.
CC moves extremely well for a guy his size. Girardi should use him in clutch spots to pinch hit too, i mean the guy did hit 2 HRs in 51 ABs last year. Better idea actually he bats for himself when he pitches, no DH that day. j/k of course but no question about it that the guy is an all around athlete. -JERSEY HARDBALL
green grass and blue sky and baseball make for a great photo.
You sure that’s not Edwar? CC dropping pounds by the day.
CC looks trim indeed. But pinstipes are slimming.
some things about Girardi’s camp have not changed Swisher just twittered that he has never run so much in his life.
Don’t pull a Pavano and fall on your arse and end up out for 4 years…
