GUESS WHO JUST SIGNED CLAY RAPADA?

A quick note and an important one coming out of Yankeeland and lefty specialists.  It's breaking now, or alittle while ago...


Clay Rapada is back. It's being reported by Andy McCullough of the Star Ledger, HERE, that Clay Rapada has returned to the Yanks, signing a minor league deal. Now comes speculation that they are either sick and tired of Boone Logan being ineffective against lefties or, maybe they just want 2 lefties in the pen eventually. Hey, if I had to choose, I'd go with Clay Rapada and Vidal Nuno, but that's me.

The report says: "During the first week of the season, lefty reliever Boone Logan twice lost battles with Tigers slugger Prince Fielder. Manager Joe Girardi tends to like having an extra left-hander in his bullpen. "

I remember when we here at Bleeding Yankee Blue wanted an extra lefty in the pen.  Read THE EXTRA LEFTY THE YANKEES NEVER HAD from way back in 2011.

I'm thrilled. I like Rapada. Welcome back Clay, oh and do me a favor... Change that Twitter avatar with you and Hello Kitty...


I thought I could overlook it but it's hard.  You're still the man though!
