Following the Yankees' offseason retooling, Suzuki might be better off if he's traded. But he doesn't want to think about that possibility too much just yet.
"When you're looking in the outfield, it just looks like there's nowhere you can hit it," he said. "Anything that's hanging in the air I feel like we're going to track down."
We can't say exactly why Derek Jeter made it seem so easy. We only know that he did. Perhaps it's because he played every game with the grace of a legend but the grit of a Little Leaguer.
Jeter is ready to move on with his life -- after one more season, of course. The captain said 20 years in the major leagues will be enough. He just wouldn't really say why.
A lawyer for MLB, Matthew Menchel, confirmed Wednesday the league dropped its case against Biogenesis of America, its owner Anthony Bosch and several other individuals.
"I'm not going to get into a media war with Lloyd McClendon," Yankees hitting coach Kevin Long said. "He'll probably win that, anyway."
When you get ready to call a show to foolishly rip a future Hall of Fame shortstop, make sure you say right at the top if you root for or hate the Yankees. This way, we'll know if you're an idiot or a jealous idiot.
The team said the store manager decides on which jerseys he thinks will be the best sellers, and they said Alex Rodriguez's model had not been available there for several years.
"Last time I checked, I didn't know that Kevin Long was the spokesman for the New York Yankees," McClendon said. "That was a little surprising. I was a little p----- off, and I'm sure Joe (Girardi) feels the same way."
The Yankees signed Japanese starting pitcher Masahiro Tanaka to a seven-year, $155 million contract on Jan. 22. As far as Yu Darvish is concerned, the Bronx Bombers paid too much money for his countryman.
The Yankees are still waiting to see if they made the right decision on a trade they pulled off back in 2011. Needless to say, it's been that long of a road back from injury for Michael Pineda.
"I know he hasn't played a full season in the last few years and he's obviously a guy that has some age on him, too, but my plan is to run him out there almost every day," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said.
These Bombers are -- for the most part -- nothing more than mercenaries, hired guns. And they will fire and kill their opponents with their quick bats, speed and power. But will it be all that special when they do?
The outfielder hit .296 last season with 24 home runs and 84 RBIs, reaching the World Series for the first time. Now he's on a team that expects to be in the World Series every year.
Cano is no longer a Yankee, yet we're still talking about his giddy-up -- or lack thereof -- to first base. "If somebody told me I was a dog, I'd have to fix that," Yankees hitting coach Kevin Long told the Daily News.
