Chan Ho Park signed with the Yankees over the weekend for less than the Phillies offered.
Park had a great year after moving to the bullpen but still strangely insisted on starting.
From South Korea, Park said, “I have chosen the Yankees, a prestigious team that can advance to the World Series again.”
We can only assume the Yankees took Park to the Times Square Bubba Gump Shrimp in a limo with the magician movie The Prestige playing. Because that my friends is the very definition of prestigious.
Here’s hoping ridding themselves of Park will have an Abreu-esque effect. The Abreu Effect would translate into the Phillies winning the World Series, the Yankees losing during the playoffs and Chan Ho Park having a weird resurgence with hollow numbers.
