aaron gleeman did a january 29th article on the yankees' infield. it's his usual mix of sabermetric party line and crap.
glaring mistakes:
derek jeter has a cannon for an arm.
jason giambi is a really bad fielder.
cannons: nomar, raffy, mini-raffy, others.
and jason giambi has been better than average for four years in a row. but gleeman's not all bad. he made a nice observation about kevin brown (groundball pitcher + horrible infield = era explosion), and the column before that is a good take on the smoltz/eckersley comparison. he underrates their difference as starters, though.
