With Crystal's signing, Yankees find themselves overloaded at 3B and release Alex Rodriguez.

Maybe that's the way he wanted to portray the character, must remember us Mets fan are a bunch of sad sack losers. <- now doesn't that look like Billy Crystal in City Slickers?

It is an embarrassment, it is a disgrace to the uniform that this annoying, unfunny jerk gets to play in actual game w/ the Yankees.

Are you being serious?

Are you being serious?

I am being very serious, the guy has been irrelevant for decades. he has a couple of good movies but has spent his time peeking at the Yankees in the shower the last decade. I have been sick of this guy for years and this latest stunt is a complete embarrassment to the organization.

Steroids have been an embarrassment to the game. Every team has had a bunch of steroid users despite what the siully Mitchell report tells us. This is something completely different. How did this guy earn the right to play in a an actual Yankee game? It's a disgrace.
