07/20: They're Bringing Up Shelley!
Posted by: James
Pete A. reports that the Yanks have called up Shelley Duncan and all I can think is that IT'S ABOUT TIME!
Duncan's numbers in the minors this year and his apparent progression at the plate are hard to ignore and at this point, you might as well give him a shot. I don't care if he goes 0-for-whatever - with what Damon provided (or didn't provide), they should have given this a shot a while ago. Still, I do hope he starts hitting immediately though...or he won't make it into Joe's circle of trust.
