Hall of Mirrors

The Twitter says the Yankees have signed Bill Hall to a minor league deal (Erik Boland of Newsday got their first).

Last week, Steven Goldman explained why Hall won’t cut it.

If Hall can revert to his 2010 form, he can help the Yankees. I suppose he'll give Nunez some competition, which is a good thing. But if Hall can't play anymore and they trade Nunez, then what?

No sir, I don't like it.

Did Chavez want too much? Is he hurt?
Why has he not been resigned?

Hall is fine. As long as they stay away from Ibanez, he's more than cooked.
Minor transactions..I'm bored. When is Opening Day??

[3] Good questions. He seems to have disappeared.

If I had to guess, I would say he's hurt -- because that's usually the case. I thought he did a good job in the field last year, but his power is gone and he seems unable to stay healthy. I would pass if I were the Yanks because he's going to end up on the DL anyway.
