With Jesus Montero pulled in the ninth and going 4-5 for the game, could it be? Francisco Cervelli is horrible this year hitting .083 and Montero is at .333. Trenton's backup catcher is Kyle Anson, so is a catcher swap in order? Thoughts?

No way. It would be a terrible move by the Yankees. There is no need to rush him along. Maybe bring him up to AA late July or August, but not a week into the season.

Yeah, that is where I had him projected as. They need another Catcher though. Jose Gil had to go to AAA because of the injury to Cash. Anson is good, but not great and Cervelli is hitting .083. They need help.

Yeah but I wouldn't risk damaging Monteros confidence by overmatching him in AA. He's just a baby right now at 18 and a half. No need to rush him. If he performs well in Tampa, promote him.

Yeah, true that. I know he is very good, but if his time is now, than by all means let it rock!

3 Sterling Refactors
3 Sterlings

I'm gonna say no way, and I really really hope not.

He's hitting well in the High A FSL for an 19 year old, which is impressive enough. I'd rather him be in warmer temperatures than to rush him to Trenton.

That would make NO sense to me.

and since we're posting stashes :)

15 ref autos
4 blue ref autos
3 of the 4 serial numbered 1/1 2006 Just autos.

His "time" will come when Posada's time is done. And until then...let him progress reasonably. There is no need to push him.

I just bought another orange auto. I have quite a bit and I am not selling any. I should probably scan what I have in the next few days.

I saw that. Your lucky I went to Walmart and forgot to bid :lol: The golds and oranges aren't going anywhere on ebay. Mtark1 isn't budging below $425 on his, and the orange is $300 overpriced.
