Meet the 2008 New York Yankees
by John BManager: Don Mattingly
Bench coach: Wayne Tollenson (Mattingly’s best friend)

Pitching coach: Dave Eiland
Lineup:
LF Johnny Damon
SS Derek Jeter
RF Bobby Abreu
2B Robinson Cano
DH Jason Giambi/Hideki Matsui
CF Aaron Rowand (Signed to a stupidly long deal)
C Jorge Posada (Re-signed)
3B Wilson Betemit (Yup, A-Rod opted out. He went across town. David Wright agreed to move to 1st base.)
1B Doug M. (Re-signed)
Rotation:

Bullpen:
Closer: Joba Chamberlain (Yup, Mariano Rivera was signed by the World Champion Boston Red Sox to a 4 year deal. Hank only wanted to go as far as 3 years. Weird, it’s like a reverse Johnny Damon deal.)
Does it matter who else is in the pen? (Farnesworthless, et al)
