minor leagues

Interesting question posed to me by a caller on my radio program today ( Game On With Bruce Jacobs). The question was in relation to dealing Robinson Cano for big time prospects. Again my answer is no and there are several reasons why...

Sometimes professional athletes just can’t walk away from the game they love, even if they that means seeking out a smaller stage to prove they still have some skills. Here are 10 athletes who’ve done just that — tried to come back by playing in a lesser league.

Looks like we will soon have another Mattingly in pin stripes.  Donny Baseballs son Preston has signed a minor league deal with the New York Yankees.

What ever happened to Kei Igawa?  Remember him?  The former Yankee pitcher that was supposed to be the best free agent signing to ever come out of Japan. Igawa had huge fanfare coming into the league and never lived up to it!  Well, the biggest MLB bust ever is still playing baseball in the Yanks' system.

Joba Chamberlain was once labeled the successor to Mariano Rivera as the Yanks closer.  That was 4 years ago - and my, have times changed. So where does #62 fit in with the Yankees plans this season?
