Morrissey Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Austin Jackson as well as Kevin Russo where removed from the AAA Scranton game today, I wonder if that means there being called up. Obviously that or an injury. Hmmmm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morrissey Posted April 15, 2009 Author Share Posted April 15, 2009 Really??? Isn't he not ready? I'm not sure, I would of liked to see him play the whole year in AAA, and maybe get a September call up, but he's raking in AAA now. Remember this is just speculation.

MagicBizkit87 Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 This might be because Nady is out for the year. Austin Jackson would need to start if he's brought up though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember this is just speculation. Yea I know that's why I'm a little curious as to why. From everything I've heard the kid is gonna be good but he's not there yet. I'd rather keep in in AAA and let him take his hacks down there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyHector Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Terrible idea if they call him up. They have enough between Damon, Swisher, Gardner, and Melky to get by without rushing Jackson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, he's not going to be called up to sit the bench, but Matsui is not in the lineup today again. LF- Jackson CF- Gardner RF- Swisher DH- Damon That's a hell of a defense.

I also felt they rushed Cano 3 years ago, but again.. we'll see, this is all speculation, Jackson could of been injured in that game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's hope not. But I do agree it's not wise to rush him. We have enough and he'll have a spot to earn next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morrissey Posted April 15, 2009 Author Share Posted April 15, 2009 Another interesting tidbit to fuel the fire, he's been playing LF the last few games in Scranton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicBizkit87 Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 I don't think they'll bring him up though, he's too young, and he has a lot to learn still, even though he's been lighting Triple A pitching up. They will probably bring up either Russo, or a long man option like Aceves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morrissey Posted April 15, 2009 Author Share Posted April 15, 2009 Only 25 at bats, but he's looked really good early on, obviously would liked to see some more extra base hits.

Barton Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Nady is out the season most likely. Jackson will get his shot right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morrissey Posted April 15, 2009 Author Share Posted April 15, 2009 Fuck AAA, I'm in the market for a new T-Shirt Jersey. I wonder what number there going to give Jackson when he gets called up. Nady won't be around in 2009, so #22 will be available, or maybe they finally give up #21. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeebers Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 http://yankees.lhblogs.com/ Tough break for Nady if true. I always liked him as a Met. Nothing flashy, but a pretty good player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uart Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Really??? Isn't he not ready? He was AAA player of the week or something. Apparently he's off to a hot start. I don't want him called up to sit on the bench though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nady won't be around in 2009, so #22 will be available, or maybe they finally give up #21. He'd look good in either. I'd allow him to take #21. As long as it stays in the family, I'm cool with it. Not cool with ****ty relief pitchers who were with the Yankees for 45 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His plate music is what I loved about him. Shame we won't even get to hear it this year. Pretty much the only reason I wanted him over Swisher out there. So what if I don't take ability into account.
