CHRIS MARTIN IS A NEW YORK YANKEE


No... not that Chris Martin. That being said, if the lead singer of Coldplay signed with the Yankees... that would be news, huh?


Actually, it's righty pitcher Chris Martin and they traded for him with the Rockies who just recently DFA'd him.  According to Jack Curry:
Nice. Curry is a stand up guy recognizing he made a mistake. I would have blamed auto-correct. Anyway... Here's the deal with Chris Martin. According to Hardball Talk:

"Martin is 28. He has only pitched 16 games in the bigs, all of which came last year. His ERA was sky high but his peripherals were much better than that ERA suggests. He achieved much better results in the minors with similar strikeout, walk and groundball rates, so there is reason to think he can be better than what he showed in that small sample size in Denver. He’s also 6’8″ and can crank it up in the mid-90s, and that’s pretty intriguing."


Oh yeah, and Curry had another tidbit you need to know about:
In Curry we trust. Welcome Chris Martin.
