You didn’t think we saw the last of Don Zimmer now did you? Popeye has been hired as an advisor by the Devil Rays. According the AP:
Zimmer, who turns 73 on Jan. 17, will be in uniform as a coach during spring training and for pregame practices at all regular-season home games.
It’ll be good to have Zim hanging around Lou. Hopefully, it won’t be too long before he and George engage in some backpage-tabliod fun. I wonder if there will be any fights in the East this year. I can’t remember the last time the Yankees got into a bench-clearing rumpus, but I don’t believe they’ve had one since Giambi’s been on the team. Can I get a little help on this one?
