Aaron Small DFA'd
Anybody want to add him to the pile?
Yankees designate Small for assignment 6/17/2006, 2:15 p.m. ET The Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) — Aaron Small, struggling this season after going 10-0 last year, was designated for assignment Saturday by the New York Yankees, who recalled pitcher T.J. Beam from Triple-A Columbus. Small is 0-3 with an 8.46 ERA in 11 appearances, including eight in relief. He gave up two earned runs in 1 1-3 innings in Thursday's loss to Cleveland. "I didn't get the job done, and they felt like I'm a fish out of water in the bullpen," Small said. "I'm more of a starter, but I'm not going to make excuses. I apologize for not getting the job done. It's pitching, and I didn't get people out consistently." |

Re: Aaron Small DFA'd
I'm sure Wayne K has thought about it. He got by purely on guile last year, but he certainly got by.

Re: Aaron Small DFA'd
I'll pass. We don't need more pitchers who's best asset has been luck.

Re: Aaron Small DFA'd
Aaron Small wasn't the other guy the Reds could have had when they acquired Claussen for Boone?

Re: Aaron Small DFA'd
For some reason, Aaron Small reminds me of Danny Graves.

Re: Aaron Small DFA'd
No thanks.
It's funny...there are always posts whenever there is a rumor of Griffey/Dunn to NY or Chicago or wherever saying "Who do the Yankee fans/media/FO think they are, always saying that they should be able to get whoever they want?" And whenever there is a pitcher released by another team, no matter who they are, someone posts here and asks if we could use him. Just shows the huge disparity in baseball markets. |
