07/17: Yankees Sign Sexson
Posted by: Seamus
Richie Sexson has reached a deal with the Yankees, according to ESPN. Sexson hit .218 with 11 home runs and 30 RBI in 74 games this season for the Mariners.
Sexson has hit for some pretty crazy numbers against lefties (.344/.423/.623) this season, but has been dreadful against right-handed pitching (.178/.281/.304), so it's likely he'll be seeing some limited playing time as he finishes out this season in pinstripes.
Not sure this move really does anything for me...he's basically just Shelley Duncan with a bigger name and smaller forehead.
