Injuries Are No Excuse......

Bill Parcells was always fond of saying "The best ability is availability." He absolutely abhorred guys missing time on the training table. Ironically, he also over-worked guys in the offseason and they complained that it shortened their careers … but Parcells always got the most out of them during the season.

If only he knew how to shop for the groceries.

Baseball doesn't have an NFL-like or NBA-like salary cap. If baseball had a salary cap the Yankee's roster would look very different.

MLB and NBA have the exact same type of salary cap. It's a soft cap where you can go over it if you want to but you have to pay a luxury tax.

First of all injuries will happen. Secondly hardly any team has the quality in backups to replace starters. Finally having said that when it comes to backups the scouting department and coaching has to be at their best. Backup talent has to be chosen based on the system (perfect fit) and back ups have to be coached up.

This is a new chapter and let's hope that Flores brings that knowledge with him from a team who has mastered the plug and play in football.

Or understood that no man had the time to be good at being a football coach and being a good scout!
