Nick Swisher Pitches For The Yankees Against The Tampa Bay Rays
The Yankees Should Have Spent $161 Million On Nick Swisher


As I'm sure you probably already know, during the Rays' asskicking of the Yankees last night Nick Swisher was brought in to pitch for the Yankees during the 8th inning. Impressively, Swisher made it out of the 8th without giving up a run and even struck out Gabe Kapler. Something tells me Kapler got a lot of crap after the game for that.

So the Yankees spent $161 million on CC Sabathia during the offseason and Swisher is their best pitcher. There's something oddly poetic about that.

 maybe Nick could come pitch in the Rangers bullpen. We like to overpay guys who aren't really pitchers.

 Nothing like a little drinking in the am to get the day started.

Yeah, he may have a good year, but I think his stats may be this instead:

4 wins
2 losses
44 innings pitched
3 saves
11 K's
10 BB's

 I may have to agree he does have a good changeup
