It was a pleasure watching you pitch, Moose.

I wish him luck in his future endeavors. You couldn't ask for a classier representative of the Yankee organization.

He will be in the Hall of Fame.

Moose has an uphill battle to the Hall of Fame by most accounts. Still, I really hope he makes it. Joe Posnanski of the Kansas City Star wrote an excellent case for him the other day on his blog.

Best of luck, Moose.

One of the few great things to watch last year. If he ends up in the HoF, it may take him a while.
