Irony and Stuff

You know those corny Yankee feature magazines the vendors sell? Reporting from Sunday's game at the Stadium, Edwantsacracker told me that this week's cover story was "Melky Cabrera: Centerfielder of the Future".

And he didn't think to buy it for me.

A very special prize (most likely my eternal gratitude) to anyone who can scan and email me the cover of this prescient and opportune feature.  Bonus points (and perhaps a copy of Frank Strauss' Dawn of a Dynasty, about the '47 Yankees) to anyone who can send me the photo and a decent write-up of the offending article.

But he IS

the centerfielder of the future…for Scranton-WilkesBarre.

I've seen it

It’s the cover story for the August magazine/scorecard. I have two copies, actually. I got one at one of the games against the Angels, then another one last Friday – the day he got sent down. (My dad and I shared a laugh about that; I’m pretty sure we made the same joke as above (CF of the future for Scranton))

True story: there’s a note inside (I think it’s the letter from the editor) that says that they got so many great shots during the photoshoot, they made two different covers – one for the newsstand (and Stadium) and one for subscribers. I don’t remember much about the article – a typical magazine piece about how hard he works and how much he loves playing for the Yankees, etc. I’d scan it in for you but (a) it’s at home; and (b) I don’t have scanner.
