You mean like Theo Epstein?

Honestly, how many times has Robinson Cannot gotten a big hit this year? Good year from him BUT I don’t think he’ll be Mr Clutch, that would be either Jeter OR Teix.

Funny how Georgie the Defacto Captain and Nick “Baseless Runner “Swisher were mentioned. Yeah, they worry me BUT so does Arod in the playoffs,too.

Mike the Moose calling Hughes the Boy wonder underrated? Good call,Mike. He’s been much improved in the BP this year. I must admit he’s been a pleasant surprise in this role(for me at least).

A-Rod’ll never hit in the postseason. Swisher is the Yankee to be most worried about. Cano is the most underrated.

A little dissonance there, Moose.

Was Skowron charging by the word for this interview or something?
