Baseball Toaster was unplugged on February 4, 2009.
It seems that the Yankees management is back to ticking off players. The Players Association has now joined the fray in the Bubba Trammell custody suit. The Yankees placed Trammell on the restricted list after he went AWOL over a week ago. Trammell is upset because he does not get paid while on the restricted list but would if he were on the DL. So like a blue-collar workman's comp case, Trammell taking a trip to his local GP.
Meanwhile, the disaster that was Juan Acevedo is ripping into Steinbrenner and the Yankees:
"The first thing I did was to grow my stuff back," Acevedo said. "Maybe George should let guys grow facial hair. Is it because he can't grow it? Is that it?"
Steinbrenner responded with, "I'm rubber. You're glue..." Slapping ensued.
