The facelift has begun. Bobby Meacham will not make baffling base-running decisions at third base for the Bombers in 2009. The word "fired" is being thrown around, but I think you need a multi-year deal in order to be terminated, right? Anyway, the Yanks parted ways with Meacham on Tuesday and speculation has already begun on his successor. Willie Randolph? Luis Sojo? Larry Bowa? Me? No word yet on where the Bombers are leaning.  The Yankees also waved good-bye to special pitching instructor Rich Monteleone. I wasn't sure what Monteleone's official title was after he was dismissed as the bullpen coach following the 2004 season. Now I know. Or knew, as it were. It may not be splashy, but it's Yankee news.

Meacham never really had a chance. His fate was sealed in 1985 when he passed Willie Randolph at first base after hitting a home run.
Thanks for getting the ball rolling, Gene!
I read somewhere that Meacham actually lived in Girardi's house.
Personally, I agree. If you think Girardi did a bad enough job that you need to send a message by firing his guys, then just fire him. That's what I was hoping they'd do. Girardi is garbage.
I wonder if Girardi tossed him out on the street.

It's a happy day for Yankee fans everywhere.
What do you call Bobby Meacham on the unemployment line? A good start.
