Don't know what I'm talking about? How about this. It's being reported that Jesus Montero is officially demoted, sent down to AAA by the Seattle Mariners. According to the Tacoma News Tribune (HERE), " Montero will be sent to Triple-A Tacoma, while catcher Jesus Sucre will be selected from the Rainiers...What position will Montero play in Tacoma? Well, he figures to see plenty of time at designated hitter and some time at first base. Zunino is the catcher of the future, so his playing time should not be affected.
Montero’s demotion to Triple-A seemed to be more likely with each passing day and each failed at-bat."
'I’m happy so far that he’s healthy,' Cashman said. 'But he’s obviously got a ways to go. We’ll see. But so far so good.'”
That comes from the Star-Ledger, HERE. Look, it's my feeling that Brian Cashman may be the smartest man in the room right now. He signed Lyle Overbay, Travis Hafner and Vernon Wells and no one thought he had a brain in his head. Could you imagine if they keep carrying this team and then Michael Pineda comes back 100% and ready to kick ass?
We'll have to see. I feel bad for Montero but maybe all the hype was yet another Yankees strategy... we'll have to see how it all plays out, but right now the Yankees appear to be in the driver's seat.
