Per MLB’s announcement today, the winner of the AL Final Vote was Nick Swisher. Not that that is any big surprise or anything. He did get serious competition from Youk but still… Why don’t they just put the entire Yankees team out there and then just play whoever else has time?
Anyway, about REAL baseball, Morneau is out after taking a knee to the head last night – yes, he does have a concussion, again. They are calling him day-to-day. You really have to feel bad for the guy. And kind of makes you feel a little bad for Cuddy too – yet more musical fielding positions for him.
