Why would the Yankees keep this guy around?

[soxie thefangirl]

They just need a late defensive replacement.

[riverside sluggers]

how come he hasnt played since sept 9? thats two weeks of bench-warming

Cano is hitting like 400 since that point.

[GameOver 42]

Yeah, Bellhorn hasn't been playing lately. He was actually playing well for us with the glove and a little with the bat. But Cano has been on fire since we got Bellhorn after slumping for quite a while.

[Optimist]

Bellhorn would play in a blow out, when Joe wants to give one of our infielders the rest of the night off.

well i think 1 for 13 explains it

still when you are a defensive replacement in the late innings, batting stats shouldnt count. if the game is quickly out of hand, or a big lead they need solid D players, Cano just recently made another error.

[redsoxrules]

actually i dont find his defense is that great to be honest ,if im not mistaken he was the one being replaced last year in late innings cause of his defense

what are we supposed to do, release him in September ? :dunno: :what:

 

Hes a versatile player who could help us out in some spots.

yeah if your winning by ten runs, or loosing by 10 runs to give the other guys a rest

yea, but hes more versatile than anyone else we have, and god forbid Cano or A-Rod go down (I didnt include Jeter, because if jeter went down we would probably play Womack at SS because he can leadoff) Bellhorn would be our best bet. Or for instance IF we're in the World Series, NL park, most of our bats off the bench are gone, he can pinch hit for the pitcher or something. Bellhorn proved last year he can produce in the postseason

[Cityofchampions33]

Well, hes not exactly your gold glove type backup, he cant hit for s***, in my mind, hes worse than Alex Cora.

no, hes not a gold glove backup, but ill take him over Felix Escalona

LOL, yea, thats a given

[BellhornLove]

Give him a break. I love the guy. You don't have to bash him anymore, he's on another team.
