TAMPA, Fla. — Looks like Goose Gossage has ruffled some feathers in Yankeeland again.
A week after his comments about bat-flipping and the “nerds” who run baseball earned the Hall of Famer a talking-to from the Yankees, Gossage again took aim at things he doesn’t like. This time it was instant replay, Cam Newton and the supposed “revenge of the nerds” who didn’t like his original comments.
Yankees manager Joe Girardi seemed the most perturbed Wednesday about Gossage’s latest musings. After Gossages’s first series of broadsides, Girardi and Yankees general manager Brian Cashman met with the former closer, who is a special spring training instructor.
