I’m Pinch Hitting at LoHud today
Check out my article on David Robertson that appears over at the LoHud Yankees blog today. I want to thank Chad Jennings for keeping this cool tradition alive. This is the second time I have Pinch Hit.
I choose to write about D-Rob because I felt like he was one of the best Yankees in 2011, but he really didn’t get too much attention in articles. I also tried to change things...

No wonder everyone wants to be a New York Yankee, as who wouldn’t want a boss that hands out half-million dollar raises based on poor performance due to laziness?
You can be sure Phil Hughes isn’t complaining.
Last season, Hughes showed up to Spring Training out of shape, and sat on the DL with shoulder and back...

Yankees 2011 Season in Review: David Robertson
David Robertson was drafted by the Yankees in the 17th round of the 2006 draft. Armed with a sneaky fastball and a hammer curve, D-Rob reached the majors by 2008 and was there to stay by 2009.
EXPECTATIONS: Robertson had shown flashes of potential in his first three season, but going into the 2011 season the Yankees had at least three relievers who were expected to play bigger roles...

Yanks worried about Dave Robertson?
Via Joel Sherman of the NY Post:
David Robertson has not thrown the ball well from late in spring training right through this early season. Now keep in mind that it is both early and that the Yankees like Robertson a lot. They not only love his stuff, but think that he is tough-minded and can handle big situations even in the AL East and The Bronx.
But he is young and he does have...

2010 Player Previews: David Robertson
2009: David Robertson was called up on April 16th, 2009 before the Yankees 1st series in the New Yankee Stadium and saw some action in a 10-2 loss (2IP 2 Hits 3 Ks), but all Robertson was really expected to be was a clean up guy who would come in during blowout wins or losses to eat up innings. During his first 2 months with the Yankees Robinson was mainly only used in losses, and...
