  Open Thread: Higashioka gets the call

  Well, kinda. Robert Pimpsner of Baseball Digest tweets that the Yankees have

  invited 19-year-old catching prospect Kyle Higashioka to Major League Spring

  Training. I’m sure the Yanks’ 7th round pick in the 2008 Draft is excited

  for the opportunity, but this isn’t a sign that the organization has big

  expectations or anything like that. I’m sure they do, but this move is more

  along the lines of “we have more than a dozen mounds in the Tampa complex,

  and we need people to catch.” No shame in that.


  Higashioka hit .253-.333-.332 in 247 plate appearances for the Short Season

  Staten Island Yanks last season, but he’s got some killer bat skills (only

  31 strikeouts). He’ll get an invite with the intent of giving him a chance

  to show off his skills soon enough. For now, he should just soak it all up.


  Here’s your open thread for the evening. The Devils, Rangers, and Knicks are

  all in action, plus the Pro Bowl is on ESPN. Nothing like watching the 6th or

  7th best QB in the league get some playing time. Enjoy the thread.
