Guitierrez is rated as the 4th highest defensive OF by UZR/150 this season and will be a fantastic defensive replacement.
Currently sporting a 102 OPS+, he'll be a fantastic addition to my bench.

2. It was the last hurrah for a lot of guys on that "Yankee Dynasty"
3. They had the lead in the 9th inning of Game 7 of said WS
4. It was the first time Yankee fans saw the chink in the armor and experienced a crushing defeat with Mo on the mound
