PrintYes Yankees fans want someone other than Marcus Thames our current bench riding strikeout machine. A slow rolling chant of Weber Weber followed by a stomping sound is resounding through out spring training.
Jon Weber is hitting the hell out of the ball. A 32 year old minor leaguer deserves a shot. He still is hitting over 500 and is playing above average defense. He is a scrappy player that just want go away. He has endured and is willing to do what ever is asked of him. Shown surprising power and good base running abilities. Dam if only he was right handed. Then no doubt he would make opening day roster and we would be waving bye-bye to Thames. Looks like if any outfielder goes down to injury Weber may be wearing pinstripes.
Joe Girade and or Brian Cashman can you make this happen?

In a perfect world, maybe...
…in this world- he’s probably sent down, and is the first OF called up in a pinch.
There was this one time Shelley Duncan hit a bunch of home runs too
32 year old career minor leaguers don’t turn into valuable assets.
This sticker is dangerous and inconvenient, but I do love Fig Newtons.
Why would we say Webber?
Strikeouts are boring- Besides that, they're fascist. Throw some ground balls - it's more democratic.
What the hell is this guys real last name?
He could very well go far in Japan.

and I’m starting to think YankeesJets is Darth Duggan’s other alias and he is secretly +ing himself.

If it is, he’s paranoid enough to use an IP scrambler. I can see they’re from different states.
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
You caught me
I’m also clever enough to pretend to be a Jets fan, because it goes without saying that no one with my level of understanding of life would be a Jets fan.

lol
From my point of view, I could never understand what life must be like for a Jets fan.

Weber was sent down yesterday. Look at today's NY Times for a good article about it in the BATS blog.
It says Weber was sent down only because he hits with the wrong hand. He signed with the Yanks to get a shot at the majors (he’s been the final cut a couple of times before), and he was heartbroken. It’s a nice story.
