Mike Piazza

New York Daily News - Baseball - MLB Roundup: Yanks pass on Piazza; Bonds out of Classic

The Yanks passed on Piazza because Bernie Williams could be a better DH? Or maybe Kelly Stinnett is a better back-up catcher?

My guess is the Yanks passed because Piazza wants too much money. It is the only reason to pass on him.

Oh, wait. I forgot about Joe Torre's man crush on Bernie Williams.

That's quite a bit of money for a one year Piazza rental. I'm kinda suprised the Yankees did pass since there usually paying top dollar. Then again, if Bernie is going to be DH then Piazza's role would be decreased to pitch hitting while making $7-8M.
