Wright Tries to Sabotage Yankees Season

Yankees catcher, Francisco Cervelli, was seen using David Wright's glove on Monday night. Cervelli was sent out to play thirdbase by Joe Girardi after Alex Rodriguez left the game with a calf injury and Ramiro Pena was replaced by a pinch-hitter.

We know a few things about David Wright and Francisco Cervelli. First, they're both a little weird. Wright has those perfectly sculpted salon-style eyebrows that I can't help look at even though they give me the creeps.

Meanwhile, Cervelli just has D-Bag written all over him. He's all about the over-exuberant 6th-inning fist pump during a Thursday afternoon game in April, and he reminds me of that guy in your Sunday baseball league that thinks everyone else is bushleague, even though he's the one that's acting like a tool and was playing catch on the infield dirt before the game.

So maybe these guys hang out on those Monday days off. Or, maybe this was David Wright's way of trying to hand off some of those strikeouts to the Yankees.
