Yankees fans better hope he wasn't acquired with the intention of spending any considerable time in center.

Re: Nick Swisher is a Yankee
Lol, there's no way you can't like this trade as a Yankee fan. Gave up nothing valuable and bought low on a switch hitting guy that can play multiple positions. And his .332 OBP and .410 slugging percentage in "down-year" is better than anything Melky or Gardner could probably do in a career year.MLB: New York Yankees

Re: Nick Swisher is a Yankee
My, how Swisher's trade value has fallen.
If I'm a White Sox fan, I'm not happy with this. However, as a fan of an AL Central team, I am happy that Kenny Williams has taken his team and is tearing it apart, little by little.Too Old To Game Club
Urban Meyer is lol.Comment

Re: Nick Swisher is a Yankee
Good deal. Betimet sucks, Marquez might have a future as a back of the rotation starter, but we have enough of those guys. Don't know about Nunez.
Hopefully last year was just a down year for Swisher, but even if it wasn't, it's still pretty good value.
Guess we aren't going after Texeira though.Originally posted by Jay BilasThe question isn't whether UConn belongs with the elites, but over the last 20 years, whether the rest of the college basketball elite belongs with UConnComment

Re: Nick Swisher is a Yankee
Lol, seriously. I don't think we're out of the running for Tex but the amount we were willing to pay just went down significantly and Boras knows it. He's probably ordering a hit on Kenny Williams right now.MLB: New York Yankees

Re: Nick Swisher is a Yankee
I was one of the rare guys who liked Betemit, I thought he was a great backup for us, best bench hitter we've had in a while, but this is a deal you have to make.
Great deal (again) Cashman.Comment

Re: Nick Swisher is a Yankee
I liked Betemit also, he could play all 4 infield positions and had power. Name 5 utility players in the MLB who are better than Betemit.Member of The OS Baseball Rocket Scientists AssociationComment

Re: Nick Swisher is a Yankee
But I'm really crying over nothing because I agree you HAVE to do this trade. Swisher is a year removed from a 800 OPS and still pretty young.Comment

Re: Nick Swisher is a Yankee
Sounds like Texeira is more unlikely now. Cashman says the Swisher is here to play 1B.

Re: Nick Swisher is a Yankee
Of course he is gonna say that. He's not gonna say anything else. He can't say, "yeah we're getting Tex". It's Cash playing it as close to the hip as possible as usual.Comment

Re: Nick Swisher is a Yankee
This trade does reduce the possibility of signing Texeira though. I wouldn't put it out of the question for Cash to still sign Tex, but he won't give out crazy money for him like Boras is looking for.Member of The OS Baseball Rocket Scientists AssociationComment
