FRANKIE MONTAS & CARL PAVANO MUST BE FRIENDS


Frankie Montas drives me nuts and he hasn't even been with the Yankees that long. It was kind of the same way I felt about Carl Pavano when he came to New York. 


Often injured and looked like he never was going to return to the Yankees rotation.  Jacoby Ellsbury was another one. I pulled my hair out. The guy would be healthy, but oh wait, he just pulled a hamstring.

Frankie Montas was a pitcher that the Yankee fan base wanted only because the media fueled our need for him. We never really needed Frankie Montas. And now that we have him, he's literally a 6th starter, the odd man out... the guy that we no longer need because, let's face it, he's not that good. 

Now comes word he's hurt. How convenient.


"Frankie Montas’ first full season with the Yankees will start much in the same way his ended last year, with the right-hander dealing with shoulder inflammation.

Montas is expected to miss the first month of the 2023 regular season and is, according to sources, between eight and 10 weeks behind in his offseason training."

Whatever.  Maybe and up and comer with our team can slip into that 5th starter slot and we can be done with Frankie.  He does nothing for me.
