We have a bench coach boys and girls, and his name is Josh Bard. Aaron Boone wants his friend by his side... kind of like Torre and Zimmer...

New York Daily News writes:

"Josh Bard, a former catcher and teammate of Aaron Boone’s, will be the Yankees bench coach, The News has confirmed. Bard, 39, will presumably be charged with trying to improve Gary Sanchez's defense."

Above is Bard is action in 2011. Nice!

Now I like this, and I'll tell you why.  Sanchez and his defense is horrendous!  Ha!

Anyway, let's welcome Bard. I kind of like the move. Anything to make newcomer Aaron Boone comfortable.
