The 2008 Yankees in a nutshell
Kei Igawa and the Famous Chicken (via brotz13)
I've been meaning to post this scan since the Yankees were officially eliminated from the playoff race, but good intentions and all that. I went to an SWB Yankees game in August, and the promotion was an appearance by the Famous Chicken (aka the San Diego Chicken). As if it weren't funny enough that Kei Igawa spent most of this year at Scranton, this is his second year spent largely at AAA (the photo is from 2007). Let's see: $26 million posting fee, and a five-year, $20 million contract on top of that. Money well spent, guys.

$4 mil a year is chicken scratch in MLB numbers though
No one had any grand expectations of Igawa. He could’ve been a decent back-end starter or…this. They got this.

Hahaha, chicken scratch
It’s funny because it’s contextual.

if you look closely, you'll see A-Rod and Capt. Jetes.
