Looks like Chad Green is expendable. Or maybe he will get more pitching time in AAA. There is a lot of growth and maturing left for the Baby Bombers - it's fun to watch them develop together and succeed. Veterans are needed for the experience & to be role models for the younger players coming up. There are many stories over the 60+ years I have been a Yankee - key factor in all is this is a TEAM sport individual stats are fine but if you keep team first your stats will come. Mickey, Thurman , Derek embraced that concept. Today's Baby Bombers are echoing the sentiment. How many players at the end of their career with productivity is diminished would turn down a huge contract because the brass thought it worth just having his presence on the bench was worth it???
