****** Breaking Yankee News: Nick Johnson Placed on Disabled List ******
In my post for April 15th I wrote that Nick Johnson had changed his uniform number to “May 5″ to honor the date he is placed on the disabled list:
Well baseball fans, I was off by three days. Today May 8th the Yankees placed Nick Johnson on the DL. And let it never be said that the Manhattan Infidel is nothing if not prescient.
Johnny Damon our Yankee Nation turns its lonely eyes to you.

If it’s any consolation Nick Johnson’s pornstache will remain a fixture in the Yankee clubhouse, rooting his team on and creeping out everybody else for the remainder of the season.

It’s not quite as porntastic as Giambi’s late lamented pornstache but it is still pretty creepy.

Meanwhile, Matsui will hit 25 hrs and knock in 100 … with the Angels. Ugh.
