Roster Redux
OK, let's take another swing at a Yankee post-season roster prediction. (The 2007 version.)
Position Players
Jorge Posada
Jose Molina
Doug Mientkiewicz
Jason Giambi
Robinson Cano
Derek Jeter
Alex Rodriguez
Wilson Betemit
Hideki Matsui
Johnny Damon
Melky Cabrera
Bobby Abreu
Shelly Duncan
Bronson Sardinha
Note:
Sardinha, a rookie, a late-season call-up rookie, on the post-season roster of the winningest team in sports? Yes. Because the Yankees hardly ever pinch-hit (why would they with this lineup?), but they do need a fast pinch runner.
Pitchers
Ching Ming-Wang
Andy Pettitte
Roger Clemens
Mike Mussina
Phil Hughes
Mariano Rivera
Joba Chamberlain
Kyle Farnsworth
Edwar Ramirez
Ron Villone
Luis Vizcaino
Note:
Notice how there are more younger pitchers than usual? That's a good thing.
