Vaccaro: Boss Making Big Mistake

Mike Vaccaro of the New York Post writes:

For seven years, he was the perfect villain. At first, when he was capable of dominance, he also received a healthy dose of respect from Yankees fans. But that was a long time ago. Lately, all he’s been is an easy object of derision.

You want to know why, George? Because he isn’t the same pitcher he used to be.

You want to know something else? Even if he was, it still wouldn’t be a wise idea to enter the courting process. It wouldn’t be worth inviting Pedro and his quirky, unpredictable personality into the Yankees clubhouse. His act wouldn’t work here, George. Those jags he goes on when he won’t speak to the press, when he won’t come to the ballpark on time, when he leaves the stadium early . . . all that stuff was tolerated in Boston. That’s who the Red Sox are.

It isn’t you, George. It isn’t your team. You’re going to ask Jorge Posada to bury the hatchet now, forgive and forget? Posada says he’d do it if he had to. Give him truth serum, George. Ask him what he feels then. Ask any of the Yankees who’ve seen Pedro’s act the past few years.
