another reason to be thankful for Indians management

The Yanks have just fired their strength coach after all the injuries they've faced. Perhaps he is just the fall guy, perhaps they hired the wrong guy.

By and large, it seem like the Indians are exteremely progressive in their management of injuries.  They do appropriate conditioning (seems like something that yanks might have screwed up on), convince their players to be cautious with their bodies when they feel pain (macho-ism isn't rewarded), and they rehab well.

Here's the link to the NY Times story:

Use the unnamed helper
They have to bring back the guy that kept Clemens, Sheffield, Giambi, Pettite, and others healthy for all those years. Who cares if it involves a little performance enhancement? They can beat the tests.

Re: Use the unnamed helper
i think it's hilarious that the Yankees only added the "Director of Performance Enhancement" position before this season. i guess up until now it's just been unofficial.
