Hideki Matsui is out until at least September with a broken left wrist that was supposedly swollen up to twice the size of his right wrist. And just like that, the once formidable Yankees outfield of Godzilla, Damon and Sheffield is Melky Cabrera, Damon and…Jeff Conine? Craig Wilson? Sammy Sosa? Man, wouldn’t that be funny.
Heaven help Brian Cashman. The pressure is now on him to make the impossible deal, with no leverage and few prospects to deal and a pitching staff that’s about to start collecting Social Security. I hope he takes Mike Mussina out to dinner at least once a week right now. Moose is keeping that team afloat all on his own.
So what move(s) should the Yankees make now? Do they go after Conine or Wilson? Maybe trade for Aubrey Huff? Tell us your thoughts.
