“I love to hit. I want to hit .300, .400, .500. I just love to hit.”
Girardi wants 28. We'll see who acquiesces.

I want Girardi to take 28 like he said. Maybe Granderson can take his #27.

He was introduced to the team but couldn't properly shake hands with Sabathia, Pettitte, and Marte.

I know this thread will be the new terrible read.

I feel Girardi should keep 27.
If they ask who was our star, give them twenty five names, and if you forget our names, just tell them we were Yankees.

I'd rather Girardi just keep 27, changing his number after each championship is kind of over the top. 27 is his first (of hopefully many) championships as a manager that should hold enough meaning for him to keep it.Originally Posted by DEADSOX
Give Granderson 28 and let him be the guy that comes in and helps us get to #28.
Give Granderson #28. It's super lame for Girardi to keep changing his number
WORLD CHAMPIONS !!!
#27
No. Girardi for 28.
If Girardi has to change his number to 29 I'm sure we'll be ok with it.Originally Posted by frostdude1

i'm looking forward to seeing granderson. i wonder whether he'd bat 2nd if we don't bring damon back.

You crazy? Girardi's number sums up the Yankee imperative.Originally Posted by frostdude1
Does anyone know if there is going to be a press conference?
Curty, Grandy or C-Grand?

He's sad to be leaving....He's clearly not happy enough to be a Yankee. He better not take as long as A-Rod to become a true Yankee.

BS. No one is sad to be leaving Detroit unless it's for Iraq or Newark... maybe.
He can't exactly say "hahaha! See you suckers later! Bet you wish you didn't get smashed before that game, don't you Cabrera! Enjoy your pot-hole filled commute through the ghetto! I'm going to play for the World Series champions along side A-rod, Derek Jeter, CC Sabathia, AJ Burnett, Mariano Rivera, and Mark Teixera. Enjoy the fire sale for the rest of the season! Hey, Verlander- be sure to give me a call before you file for free agency so I can give Cashman a heads up!"

Would be nice to have official in thread title.
When asked if the Red Sox would've beaten Tampa Bay in the ALCS had Manny not gotten his wish and been traded, Ortiz replied: "Probably. I'm not gonna lie to you."

True, you can get out of Newark, run for a day or two and probably end up somewhere half decent.Originally Posted by pleasepassthesoup
You run out of Detroit and it doesn't get any better till about... umm... Pittsburgh? It's like prision, but instead of bars they have pot holes to keep you in and hundreds of miles of equally-undesirable land surrounding it if case you make it past city borders.

DFA!
More seriously, is there any chance he can be a half-assed hitter against LHP after working with Kevin Long? I just don't want other teams to be able to turn him him into be an auto-out/GIDP by bringing in a LH reliever anytime he's up in a close and late game.

Was there a press conference with Curtis himself? or was it simply just Cashman speaking on the trade?
Just the GMs, there are quotes from him on Lohud.
Calmer than you are.
When are they going to introduce him?
probably along with roy halladay and ben sheets

http://www.nydailynews.com/blogs/yankees/Curtis Granderson has worn No. 28 since 2005, the same number he wore in college. Joe Girardi plans on wearing that number in 2010, and the numbers Granderson wore as a youngster - 2 and 8 - aren’t exactly available.
Not that Granderson minds. He wore 26 during his first big-league callup, and with Jose Molina headed elsewhere, I’d bet that’s what he wears with the Yankees.
Dumb & Dumber
granderson might get 18 should damon not return. although i expect he will.

Welcome to the team mr Granderson
over his career, his highest slugging percentage occurs in April/May.
