Yankees Get Jerry Hairston Jr. - Oh Boy!
While the Red Sox, White Sox, Tigers, and Cardinals all improved this week, the Yankees added a bit player. While I wasn't expecting a huge name, I was certainly hoping the Yankees would add a pitcher to their rotation or bullpen.
Instead we got Jerry Hairston Jr.- an average utility man, who was actually not personally liked by the Yankees at one time. The Yankees got him from the Cincy Reds for minor league catcher Chase Weems. With the glut of catching in the Yankees minors, it was probably a good move for Weems.
Does this mean Cody Ransom gets released or Shelley Duncan gets DFA'ed after one game? That remains to be seen.
