The Yankees gave a mostly immobile Derek Jeter 130 starts at shortstop in 2014 when they were competing for a playoff spot. The 2016 Yankees could book “Wanna Get Away” fares on Southwest Airlines and a prepaid hotel room for an October 4th vacation and not have to worry, yet they still won’t let Alex Rodriguez have a little fun before his career ends:
Interesting nugget on @TMKSESPN: ARod asked Girardi if he could play third base on Friday. Girardi said no.

I’m sure everyone will remember where they were when they saw Chase Headley play third base in game 115 of a blah season back in the day. It’ll really be something to cherish.
In other news, Joe Girardi probably gives loved ones Amazon gift cards for Christmas.
