Baseball’s Savior

Cy Young runner up Mariano Rivera said that the Yankees should make getting Tom Gordon back a priority. Gordon took a slight step back last year, but he was still a quality reliever. It was his first season since 1998 that he had more innings then he did strikeouts. Rumor has it he wants to close again and if the Mets can’t get Billy Wagner, they might try to snag Gordon and make him their closer.

I’d personally like to see bad boy Kyle Farnsworth sign on as the set up man. I know he also wants to close, but it’s not like we’re the Braves. We’re the Yankees, so he’ll come. The only concern is that he has a melt down like Jeff Weaver (another former Tiger) had when we got him a few years back.
