MIKE FRANCESA NEARING DEAL WITH BRONSON ARROYO

5:44PM, Associated Press

Reports out of New York indicate that talk show host Mike Francesa is close to pulling off a deal that would send Reds pitcher Bronson Arroyo to the New York Yankees. "The guy I've got my eye on and he pitches tonight in LA matter of fact, is Bronson Arroyo...he pitched a superb game his last start...he's 2-4, he's got a very high ERA, but I still like him...he's got a temperament, he used to beat the Yankees..he's the kind of guy that I've got my eye on. He misses bats," Francesa said. Phone calls to actual Yankees GM Brian Cashman were not returned.

Losing record at 2-4

Pitches in the senior circuit

Pros:
Named after Charles Bronson
Plays guitar
Stalked by Francesa

I bet you he has this on good word from Parcells cousin. He's a great candidate to switch over from the NL and get back to the light hitting AL East.

df...yeah, i do believe he was just on the phone with "Bill." Mike thinks he can succeed. Mike all has no problem taking on Arroyo's contract. Not sure what cashman's purpose is anymore...
