Why is Nunez still on the payroll???? His fielding pctg. in 2/3rd of all games played is way below sub-par. I don't get it, are our Yanks this desperate? If Joe see's something in Nunez I don't, I'd sure like to know what it is...

Nunez....oh you mean stone hands. Reminds me of Knoblauch, another 'crack' infielder.

That isn't quite fair to Knoblauch..... Knoblauch (if memory serves) wasn't having trouble fielding, but throwing the ball after he fielded it...

The mention of Knoublach bring back memories of Steve Sax. Sax had a mega problem as a Dodger. Sax to often had a bad habit of throwing a routine ground ball over the head of the 1st baseman. Eventually the Bums sent him to a Sports Shrink. 30 Errors in 142 Complete Games at 2nd base, in 1983. 21 Errors in 84 in 125 CG's, and 23 Errors in 85 in 120 CG's.
Still these Stats seem out of sorts, seems like Sax threw the ball away more often than not. Everyone would hold their breathe when he went to throw the ball...!!!
Guess the Sports Shrink did work for him, as the news stated, back then.
