This from Peter Gsmmons at the winter meetings “In a move eerily reminiscent of the 11th hour Mar Teixiera deal, the Yankees signed Snow Man to a multi-year deal. The Red Sox were targeting Snow Man who they saw as both an offensive and defensive upgrade to Jason Varitek. They also liked the fact that he was really, really white and would fit right in the club house.”
I bet Curtis Granderson is faster than him! But, I understand Snowman has power from both sides of the plate while Granderson will take advantage of the short porch in right field

I think he’s on steroids. I mean, look at the size of his head compared to a normal-sized helmet!

Couldn’t decide between these three:
1. Good to see another switch hitter added to the lineup.
2. I’m Guessing he’s a DH.
3. Oh Great, another guy that will melt under the big lights of New York.
