A look at the worst first base production in baseball
Andy Marlin-USA TODAY SportsPicture Greg Bird. Now, picture Greg Bird in spring training earlier this year. Now, picture Greg Bird in late May, sprawled out on a couch in his boutique Manhattan hotel, shoveling microwaved popcorn into his mouth and giggling softly at Tom Hanks fruitlessly trying to catch Leonardo DiCaprio posing as a Pan American pilot.
That is apparently how a cornerstone of the Yankee youth movement is spending his time since his lingering ankle bruise put him on the 10-day DL and shut him down from baseball activity.
What's Greg Bird been doing with all of his unwanted time off? Catching up on old movies. Just saw "Catch Me If You Can," enjoyed it.
