Let us taste this cool desert wind.
Thats right, the Big Red Retard is back in the desert, where no doubt his skin will as soon be as red as his formerly-glorious mullet. In exchange for Johnson and floating about $2 million dollars of his salary, the Yankees get Luis Vizcaino, minor league pitchers Ross Ohlendorf and Steven Jackson, and shortstop/Attorney General of the United States Alberto Gonzalez.
This is one of those rare situations where both teams benefit. The Yankees cut salary money and restock the minor leagues with trade-bait for their next reckless midseason trade, while the Diamondbacks get someone to help fill the stadium once every five games, even if it is just to watch a giant man bird who is incapable of tying his own shoes get shellacked by the power packed lineup of the Kansas City Royals.
The next step for Arizona Diamondbacks General Manager Josh Byrnes insidious plan to fill the bleachers at Bank One Ballpark include signing a clown, a midget pinch-runner, and of course a one-eyed woman relief pitcher with the nickname Bean.
