It's mind-boggling. I can't believe that rate of unproductivity will continue forever. Abreu still has some good baseball left in him. One wonders if the Yankees will be patient enough to see if it will happen under their watch; wouldn't it be the ultimate irony if they ended up trading him for minor-leaguers?<BR/><BR/>As it stands, it's pretty certain that the decision to acquire Abreu and move Sheffield is a hugely unpopular move in NY, probably even more unpopular than it was in Philadelphia at the time of the trade. And in fact, it was a hideous misjudgment on the part of Brian Cashman. Sheffield is five times the player and presence that Abreu is.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
