Don't forget that they signed John Olerud after he was released by the Mariners back in '04. :DQuote:

Really the important thing to the Yankees is how effective he's been this season against lefties -- something that's been a glaring weakness in their offense.Quote:

For his career, he's only marginally better against lefties - .879 OPS vs. lefties and a .842 OPS against righties. Recent history shows that he's not a lefty-killer as his 2008 would seem to indicate.
Although, all that matters is that he's an upgrade on their current options (Wilson Betemit), and that would seem to be true.
yikes
Tino Martinez anyone?Quote:
