Let's hope this doesn't become the most noteworthy aspect of Big Puma's tenure in pinstripes.
I still believe Johnny Damon would be an attractive option for the Yankees, and with the Tigers all but out of contention in the AL Central,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it's possible he'd be available via the waiver-and-trade route.
To Berkman's credit, he's saying all the right things. He told reporters after Saturday's win over the Red Sox that he's "booing himself," which would actually be kind of funny if true.
It didn't help matters that Berkman had another hitless day, getting booed off the field twice. He's 2-for-22 since joining the Yankees, numbers that make fans long for the salad days of Juan Miranda.

Newton Heath initially played on a field on North Road, close to the railway yard. the original capacity was about 12,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],000, but club officials deemed the facilities inadequate for a club hoping to join The Football League. Some expansion took place in 1887, and in 1891 Newton Heath used its minimal financial reserves to purchase two grandstands,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], each able to hold 1,000 spectators. Although attendances were not recorded for many of the earliest matches at North Road, the highest documented attendance was approximately 15,000 for a First Division match against Sunderland on 4 March 1893. A similar attendance was also recorded for a friendly match against Gorton Villa on fifth September 1889.
"Serves A-Rod right," you may think to yourself. Taking his eyes off the field to banter with Joe Buck,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a noted douche, warrants some kind of penalty. But the timing couldn't have been worse for Berkman,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], who just wants to blend into the background these days.
But it's more likely that Brian Cashman will stay put with the team he's assembled, and give Berkman every chance to succeed in his current role against right-handed pitchers.
Mark Teixeira and Derek Jeter were cracking up as Rodriguez writhed in pain on the Yankee Stadium turf after Saturday's mishap.
Instead, the batting-practice liner Lance Berkman sent off Alex Rodriguez's shin was nothing more than a cringe-worthy incident and a succinct summary of Berkman's first week with the Yankees.
But I can't seem to shake the nagging feeling that Berkman will eventually be viewed on the wrong end of the Yankee Thirty-Something Veteran Trade Scale that has David Justice on one side and Pudge Rodriguez on the other.
He has a fine resume and the sample is still way too small to call him a wash-out in New York just yet.
Manchester United was formed in 1878 by the Carriage and Wagon department of the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway depot at Newton Heath as Newton Heath LYR Football Club. The team initially played games against other departments and rail companies, but by 1888 the club had become a founding member of The Combination, a regional football league. However, following the league dissolution after just one season, Newton Heath joined the newly formed Football Alliance,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which ran for three seasons before being merged with the Football League. This resulted in the club starting the 1892 to 93 season in the First Division, by which time it had become independent of the rail company and dropped the LYR from its name. After just two seasons,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the club was relegated to the Second Division. Had old George still been around, the incident clearly would have led to a public flogging, and maybe, even an old-fashioned water boarding, military aficionado that "The Boss" was.
