Friday was pitchers and catchers reporting day at Yankees spring training in Florida.
First chance for the Yanks to get a look at Masahiro Tanaka, their new $155 million #3 starter.
Tanaka’s not an ace, he’s just paid like one.
Here’s a shot of the ace, CC Sabathia, now with less CC Sabathia.

He’s so skinny he’s gonna have to drop a C. From now on he’ll just be C Sabathia.
I don’t know about you, but I can’t get enough of these spring training images. It’s cold where I am. Very cold and dark and snowy and sad.
