Shelley Duncan

I love the new dynamics of this 2007 Yankee team. You've got a nice mix of cagey veterans like Jeter and Posada, young talent like Cano and Melky, and even younger talent like Duncan and Joba Chamberlain.

I've always been a Yankee fan, but now I really like the Yankee players again. I  hated having to cheer for a collection of douches like Sheffield, Randy Johnson, Carl Pavano, etc. The latest incarnation is edgy, what with Joba air-mailing 99 mph pitches over Kevin Youkilis' head and Shelley Duncan signing inappropriate autographs (see below and here for full article):

 

Griffin Whitman, a 10-year-old Red Sox fan from Swampscott, was excited to attend his first Yankees vs. Red Sox game Friday night.

The young autograph -collector was even more thrilled to score Yankees outfielder Shelley Duncan’s signature before the game. That is, until Griffin read the message from the 27-year-old rookie: “Red Sox suck! Shelley Duncan.”
