The Yankees made a move to shore up their outfield, acquiring Eric Hinske from the Pittsburgh Pirates for a couple of minor league guys who will never matter.
Fans hoping Hinske can be to the Yanks what former Pirate Jason Bay has been to the Red Sox: you might as well put such crazy notions out of your mind. Hinske was hitting only .255 with 1 homer and 11 RBI with Pittsburgh.
Hinske is expected to play all three outfield spots for the Yanks, and also spell A-Rod at third on those days when A-Rod is too tired from partying with Kate Hudson.
