Curtis Granderson press conference scheduled for tomorrow
ByVia Bryan Hoch, the Yankees will have a press conference tomorrow to formally introduce Curtis Granderson to Yankeeland. Assuming it’s on YES, we’ll liveblog it like we did with the CC Sabathia/A.J. Burnett and Mark Teixeira pressers last year.





Dang. I was hoping Cash would pull some ninja type shit and was waiting to introduce X and C-Grand together.
Either way, I look forward to seeing him in pinstripes.
Finally, we’ll get the chance to ask him the important questions:

I look forward to the always exciting generic Q&A’s:
What is it like to be a Yankee?
-It’s a dream come true to wear pinstripes. Blah Blah.
Are you happy to join a perennial contender?
-Yes. Blah Blah.
Both teams played hard, my man.
I wish the Yankees could sign Rasheed Wallace. He would be an awesome source of entertainment.

Ball don’t lie.
“Curtis, how does it feel to be playing alongside 2 of the worst OF to ever grace the game of baseball, 2 of the biggest bust pitchers, have a general manager with no clue, and be in a division where your main rival (gasp) tries to get better?”
IETC.
I look forward to being able to see the greatest franchise in baseball history blow my team out for 18 games compared 7 games on route to their divisional title and eventual WS sweep.
Curtis, would you describe your speed as “explosive” or “incendiary”?
We all know what your first question would be E. Why did you have to and ruin my Mike Cameron dream?
Calling me Eric I can tolerate.
“E.”?
Fuck you, Robert Grant.
All right! Ima tape that conference, than get trashed and watch it totally blazed off my ass.
sounds like a plan
very irrelevant, and off topic but does anyone know what happened to Luke Greinke?
very irrelevant, and off topic
Check.
was released a while ago.
weird that they’re having a presser for granderson but didn’t even introduce swisher. probably just an oversight there considering who they signed not too long after.
I think it’s because Arizona had one for Jackson and Kennedy
Did you see the pictures of that press conference?
IPK has himself some large ears.
This trade was considered a blockbuster and Swish’s was not. You could even argue that the Swish trade wasn’t a trade, it was simply a robbery.
Any clue what time? Im driving home from school tomorrow so maybe I can actually catch this thing on TV.
I certainly miss the YES network.
Yea I feel the same way. I can’t stand not getting anything here at UCONN. At home I get all 3 stations Yes, SNY, and NESN. I watch all three a lot too, but now I just get blacked out when there is a game on.
Oh, UConn. I do not miss your cable package one little bit.
At least at UConn, you don’t have to pay for incredibly crappy service. Once you move off campus you get to pay extra for Charter Cable and then you wish you had UConn cable again.
Haha, yeah. I had the joys of apt. living and not paying extra for a cable package. Hilltop Apartments, FTW!
Yeah, I was in Hilltop Apartments last year, but I moved off campus, because I was unlikely to get Hilltop Apartments again for grad school.
What building were you in? I was in Beard.
Grasso. Shortest walk to classes.
Nice. Because of most of my classes being in CLAS, there was no real short walk. Fuck the Red Line, man. Fuck the Red Line.
My school doesn’t get YES or MLB Network, and I’m in Brooklyn so mlb.tv is blacked out. Gameday or (shudder) Jawn and Suzyn are my only non-bar options
See I go to school in Delaware so I get all the Phils and O’s games. If it wasn’t for MLBTV I’d go nuts.
All I (and Anthony and Thomas) got up at Cow Country was NESN and because of where my billing address was (is) I got blacked out of Yankees games on MLB.tv. Woo, Gameday!
I tried watching possibly illegal Yankees broadcast across the internet. However, UConn bandwith policy meant that if you watched like 2-3 games in any 7 day stretch, you’d exceed bandwith and lose internet access for the next seven days. So that plan failed.
Yeah I did the illegal broadcast thing too. When I lived on campus they monitored bandwidth but now I’m off campus and it doesnt matter.
Also, I’m 21 so i can just go to the bars. (they play all the yanks games on a daily basis)
Yes. Amen for MLBTV.
I live/go to school in VT so all I get is flippin’ NESN.
Cable in Vermont: It’s craptastic!
Im gonna miss the presser cause im on vacation in Orlando. Damn vacations. Im sure that ESPN will show the “highlights” of the press conference on SC.
