Amazing isn't it?? If it was up to some of these posters, the Yanks would have no one on the roster because no one meets their expectations. Turning into a board of Jonahs and AJ's

and AJJP and SweetLou78 aka ReggieBars44. Speaking of SweetLou, I haven't seen him much (thank God), maybe he ran out of Cashman bashing ideas.

Newinn,

This board would have loved Hector Lopez!

Clipper

 

I luved Hector Clip. I recall as a boy, my dad telling me that the mark of a good player is a guy like Hector, who can come into a game, cold off the bench, in a clutch situation, and deliver. Number 11 did that quite a bit. Glad to see that he's still alive. Many of those guys are moving on to the Field of Dreams.

No kidding clip! Talk about a guy that had hands of stone and the Yanks were never able to hide him at any position. He guy could hit though. As a matter of fact doesn't the way Nunez swings remind you a little of Lopez? Not the stance but the way he loops and whips the bat. I remember Casey or Houk would use Lopez to pinch hit late in the game and then put him on 3rd. My cousin would scream like a mad man

Actually Casey used him at 3B in 1959, because Andy  Carey was hurt with a bad back. In 1960, while Casey was sideline in the hospital with an illness, Houk took over the Yankees, using a infield of 1B Moose skowron, 2B Bobby Richardson, Shortstop Tony Kubek , replacing Lopez with Clete Boyer at 3B, using Hector Lopez in the outfield, usually left field. Casey adopted hs idea with  Clete Boyer at 3B.

Clipper

I say we DFA him
