The Yankees latest bargain pick-up is San Francisco Giants OF Randy Winn.
Pending only a physical, 35-year-old Winn will be a Yankee for one-season, earning $2 million dollars.
Winn’s 2009 season was one of his worst, hitting only two home-runs, 51 RBI, with 93 strike-outs and a .263 batting average in his 538 at bats for the Giants.
Acquiring Winn does nothing for the Yankees in terms of adding talent, other that he can play in all three OF slots. Cashman and Girardi can use Winn to tease Swisher and Garner in fighting for their spots on the field.
My question is why not just keep Melky? Why not support Matsui?
Resigning Pettitte took the pressure off, leaving the conclusion to be pointing towards change. Otherwise, why all these useless moves if not to save a buck?
