New York Newsday is reporting that the Giambino has excised the dead rat under his nose. Giambi who is mired in a 1-200 slump needed to do something, and rather than shooting the ball to left to beat the shift, he Gillette's the only thing worth cheering about--his moustache.

If I'm Girardi, I'm sitting the big man down for a couple of days, or at the very least dropping his butt in the order to #6 or #7.

Hmm, I wonder how Teixeira will look in a 'stache next season?.
