Baseball Toaster was unplugged on February 4, 2009.
According to the Newark Star Ledger, the Yankees are showcasing Dave Dellucci, and may be interested in trading him in a package deal for an every day right fielder, like Reggie Sanders. (Thanks to Lee Sinins for the tip.)
That's too bad, because I like the looks of Dellucci in a Yankee uniform. He's got a little Henry Rollins in him, and a little Treat Williams too. (I haven't seen him enough to get a good call on him yet.) Jay Jaffe described him well:
"Dellucci looks like a classic role-player, good looking guy who your girlfriend notices and asks you why he doesn't get to play more, as you roll your eyes and explain that while he's got some speed and he hustles, he's never gonna hit enough. Chad Curtis with a better personality and haircut."
Zing.
