Giambi Speaks...

I'm not exactly sure why, but this is being covered like it's a big deal, so I figured I would mention it. Jason Giambi held a press conference where he apologized to the Yankees and the fans and to his teammates (who are also the Yankees). He also commented on the allegations in Jose Canseco's book, calling them "delusional". Of course while he was trying to lable Canseco as a liar, Giambi never mentioned the fact that he lied about his steroid use up until his grand jury testimony was leaked to the public.

Rumor has it that Jim Hendry is about to follow up the Kyle Farnsworth trade with a deal with another team for a closer. The consensus is that Octavio Dotel is on Hendry's short list. Dotel converted 80%(36/45) of his saves last year, which makes him better than LaTroy Hawkins and his 73% (25/34), so yes, I'd rather have him as our closer than choosing from our current crop of guys.

Just wondering, does anybody know where the hell Joe Borowski is? Is he coming to spring training? Is he going back on the DL? Am I going to find him flipping fish sandwiches at the local McD's tomorrow?
