If You Happen To Be At The Airport Next Monday...
...keep an eye out for Alberto Gonzalez, Bronson Sardinha, Chase Wright, Edwar Ramirez, Ian Kennedy, Joba Chamberlain, Kei Igawa, Matt DeSalvo, Philip Hughes, Ross Ohlendorf, Shelley Duncan and Tyler Clippard.
The Yankees have already made their rookies dress up (for the last regular season road trip) like Pimps (2003), Elvis Presley (2004), Cheerleaders (2005) and George Steinbrenner (2006).
With such a big class to play with this year, I can't wait to see what they come up with for Monday's flight to Tampa.

Forget the airport. All you have to do is wait outside the Stadium after the game on Monday. They usually make the rookies sign a few autographs before getting on the bus.

Good point.
If anyone is going to the game, and sticks around afterwards, take some pictures!

How about Star Wars characters. Guess which one Joba gets to be.

This is the only time when I think it's fair to consider the Japanese players rookies :)
I like how the Red Sox made the translators for Matsuzaka and Okajima dress up as well. Not quite as ridiculously, but still kind of funny.
