Character Is Everything, Marcus Stroman

So, we signed this Marcus Stroman guy I guess the bolster the Yankees rotation. I was never for it. This is a guy that would trash the Yankees and Cashman and I guess the Yankees turned the other cheek in their deperate search for cheap pitching this offseason. But now we signed the guy and Marcus Stroman could not be more thrilled about it.  Stroman, I guess ultimately wanted to be a Yankee.  Fine.   

But now the Yankees are in a bad spot. Gerrit Cole is hurt, and he is (was) our ace. And so now what? When you look at the Yankee rotation there is no one really worthy of being handed the ball on such an important day. And so, this same loser organization went to the guy that bad mouthed the team but now he dons their same pinstripes. The Yankees asked Stroman if he’d take the ball on Opening day to represent everything right about the New York Yankees.  You won’t believe what this turd did.  Talk about being a selfish player…. why did we sign this guy?

” After one injury and one rejection, the Yankees have an unfilled position for Opening Day starter….

While Boone said the decision still could change, Stroman valued remaining on his schedule over the frills of Game 1….“I think they thought I was going to be like, ‘Hey, let me get it,’ ” Stroman said of the conversation…“But like I said, that’s not my nature, man. Doesn’t matter to me.”
