I was checking some new pictures of former Yankees. They look pretty weird so I thought I’d pass them along. Apparently the Yankees were keeping a lot of players from growing facial hair, especially Jason Giambi.
We’ve got Johnny Damon in a Detroit Tigers uniform:

Austin Jackson in a Detroit Tigers uniform (I like Granderson, but it is a real shame we didn’t see AJax more in the Pinstripes):

Melky looks shell-shocked.

It doesn’t look that weird seeing Johnny Damon in another uniform because I’ve seen him play on the Red Sox against us. It’s kind of weird seeing AJax though.
I also wanted to say not to take it as a slight if you don’t see me here a lot. I get tired very easily and have various illnesses that’s tough to deal with. For me, it’s hard doing a website and going to another one as well.

I have seen the Bambino in his Boston Braves uniform. Even Joe Gordon in his Cleveland Indians uniform.
For me, the “holy grail” of other uniforms is this: Yogi Berra in the Mets uniform, and no, I am not talking Yogi the coach or manager. It has to be Yogi the PLAYER, for he only played in four games or so as a Met. No Mets pix of him as coach or manager. It MUST be as player.

Not to ignore: Ellie Howard as a Red Sox or Moose Skowron as a Dodger. Since I have every WS video since 1948, I have this. Ellie wearing #38 catching for Boston in the 1967 WS vs. St. Louis, and Skowron as a Dodger in 1963′s WS.

I think we’ve got a pic of Maris as a Cardinal in our Facebook group.

I’ve got a baseball card of Maris on the Cards if that’s any consolation…

The Mets have to be crazy not to celebrate that. I guess they were scrappin’, but gee whiz!
Alphonso is swinging mightily, but the best he’ll see from that is a dink over third. Not to be denied, now that’s a quality. Alphonso? I think the Cubs got snookered. Prove me wrong, Alphonso, but Jim Hendry should be fired, no?

I dunno, Cubbers, it’s past midnight, but maybe Dave Dombrowski is ready to switch.

Holy crap; Phil Coke looks like a skinnier Rod Beck.

He’s definitely on his way.
