Leiter To Play In WBC

From the AP -

New York Mets closer Billy Wagner and Cleveland pitcher C.C. Sabathia withdrew Wednesday from the U.S. roster for the World Baseball Classic and were replaced by Washington right-hander Gary Majewski and Yankees left-hander Al Leiter.

Leiter becomes the fourth player from the Yankees on the 30-man roster, joining shortstop Derek Jeter, third baseman Alex Rodriguez and center fielder Johnny Damon.

Al's not going to be able to impress Torre when he's not pitching in front of him. Unless A-Rod is picking the pitching staff this year?

Leiter pitched for Torre last year. Leiter has been in the league since 1987. If Torre doesn't know what Leiter has by now, he will never know.

In other words, Torre will never know.
