I guess it's our fault for putting him on waivers.

Stewart better look over his shoulder...

Good luck to him. He was asked to do more than he was capable of doing in '11. Overall, he was a GREAT Giant.

Good luck to you, Gramps.

What did they not have another solid reliever to give up.


I guess we could say the trade was Chris Stewart and Eli Whiteside for George Kontos

WE WIN

I guess this helps open the way for Williams to be the solid #3. I expected this to happen, but it is kinda sad to see him go, all the same.

Not forgiving him for wearing #22, though. That was still an insult to the uni.

It's ALWAYS Whiteside's fault.

Not a bad career for him though, 2 rings, a 1 year of a full-time job, a grand slam as your first homerun all while having white hair before the age of 20. None of us can say that

He has more rings than almost all current Yankee players. If I'm not mistaken, only Jeter and Rivera have him beat.

So the Spanks are getting him so he can bring some championship experience to their clubhouse?

The Yankees say this:

Whiteside, who caught Jonathan Sanchez’s 2009 no-hitter for the Giants, has a 3.32 catcher’s ERA since 2009, according to the Yankees’ release announcing the claim. That would be the lowest among big-league catchers over that span.

He is also among the league leaders in gray hairs, with Andy Pettitte a distant second.

And....he's still got some hops left.

Veteran experience.... I see the Spanks still use some of Sabean's methods of building championship teams...

That's an impressive ERA, too bad the Giant's pitcher don't come with it.

I think it's a pre-emptive strike for info on Giants pitchers for the upcoming 2013 WS matchup between the Giants and the Yankees (oh plz oh plz oh plz)

I hate when a key "board language" guy leaves the team. We should create board language for this right?

Crapstalgia? Fondness for an average ball player due to circumstances and clever board banter.

Or maybe "AUfreude?" Happiness that a useless fringy ballplayer moves on to another team to enhance his suck.
