Who’s next on first?

“Another one bites the dust, hey hey”…This just in: the Yankees have decided to have Tony Pena vacate his first base coaching box so that trainer Steve Donahue can set up a triage area instead. That’s the kind of weird thinking you get when being the Yankees first baseman is like being the drummer for Spinal Tap.

Mark Teixeira and Chris Parmelee were the latest casualties, with Rob Refsnyder the latest guinea pig occupying the first base bag. Maybe Nick Swisher is working with a voodoo doll, hoping to get a call up from Triple-A Scranton.
