Get Brian Cashman, I said!

Frank from Staten Island saves the Yankees:

"Michael,

I have a question with regard to the future centerfielder for the Yankees. They have a young kid Brett Gardner whom I have seen play when going to the S.I. Yankees games. The guy has tremendous speed, is terrific bunter from what I have seen and can play center well. I'd say he's maybe 2-3 years away. If the Yankees find themselves a good corner outfielder during the offseason to play left and put Matsui in center, do you think the Yanks will have enough patience and wait for a kid whom can be a Mickey Rivers type player. What's your take?

Frank — Staten Island, N.Y.


KAY: Frank,

I have not heard of Gardner but to project a kid with the Staten Island Yankees as the future center fielder of the New York Yankees is a bit hopeful. Perhaps almost delusional."
