09/27: Moose Leaning Toward Yankees Cap if He Makes Hall
Posted by: Patrick
From Kat O'Brien:
Of course, as we've come to understand, he doesn't have a choice. But, certainly a compelling case can be made for the Yankees. He pitched the first 10 seasons of his career with Baltimore and the last 8 with the Yankees. With the Orioles, he pitched in 288 games, going 147-81. Meanwhile, in New York, he's pitched in 248 games and is 122-72. The case probably becomes more compelling if his one and only 20 game season came in the Bronx, though.
If Mussina does retire and makes it to the Hall of Fame, he said he'd be leaning towards going in with a Yankees cap and not an Orioles cap.
