  • If you live in Chicago, you have to try @DarkMatter2521 coffee. It's as good as intelligensia. (May 26)

  • @blak3ly Then drop Kuroda. I like Dunn a lot, though. Wainwright's the better option over Beachy IMO (May 26)

  • Lateral move IMO, but I am a shameless believer in Bedard. Like JMD too @Matt_Warden Bedard for James McDonald? (May 26)

Is it just me or is Granderson to Yankee Stadium a match made in Heaven? All he does is hit long fly balls. Thoughts?

Yeah, I think Granderson should do well in Yankee Stadium.  His flies don’t appear to go ridiculously far (very few past even 400 ft: http://hittrackeronline.com/detail.php?id=2009_30&type=hitter), but his power should definitely receive a boost as RF in Yankee Stadium is much more suited to his power than Comerica, and batting leadoff for a team like that should allow him to score plenty of runs.
