Reclamation Projects

This has been the quietest hot stove season in Yankee land in recent memory, and I for one am sick of it. So here's a couple reclamation projects to consider. Available on the free agent market are former starters Scott Kazmir and Justin Duchscherer. In the past I advocated against signing Duchscherer because it would take too long to learn how to pronounce his name correctly. An investment of time I just wasn't willing to make. But with so little going on with the Yankees, and so much time on my hands, I think its time. Sign Duchscherer to a minor league deal, snatch up Kazmir while you're at it, and lets see if either of them can compete for a spot as the 5 guy, or at the very least as another releiver. Kazmir may be the left handed specialist we've been looking for. All I'm asking is that we do something, anything, to give me something to talk about at the water cooler at work. Right now, I'm left talking about life, and people's kids and crap like that. C'mon Yankees!

People still have kids? How can they afford them?

Here's a reclamation project. Instead of signing Prince Fielder, we should sign Cecil Fielder.

In my opinion, we're just one major injury from seeing Sidney Ponson again.

Kids are expensive, unless you put them to work, and then they're real money maker!

The Reds gave Brackman a major league deal. The Phillies gave Dontrelle Willis a major league deal. The Phillies! That's the team that's supposed to have the greatest pitching in human history and possibly superhuman history. Everyone is hurting for pitching.

Not the Yankees! I think Cashman's just seeing how much he can get away with under Hal and Hank.
