Finally time for an upgrade.

Can we get Heidi from NESN?

[THEBOSS84]

I'm dying to know how much she was getting paid.

[TheInfallibleOne]

I'd love to have Erin Andrews.

Oh and they should get somebody hot for YES Network too.

Bazinga!

EDIT: Giggity

[Jax Teller]

Kate Upton.

[ArodEra]

Too bad. She really grew on me . She was more than just a talking head and had a good amiable personality and overall good on-camera presence, while also seeming part of the Yankee family. Plus, she started to ask tougher questions than the softballs she threw up there when she first started. Last year I got to meet her and she's just as nice off camera as she is on. I wish her all the best.

I thought she was doing a fine job, and her work with Francesa was top-notch.

Hazel Mae's a hottie too (formally of NESN and MLB Network), plus we'll get a whole lotta gossip about all the players she slept with. I'm sure the Yankee players would welcome her with open arms.

She still hosts on the FAN now and then. Hope she keeps that gig.

She's 41 though. Not sure how much shelf life she has left

Well, she is Asian so probably a bit

Wow...didn't know she's 41. Yeah, I'd say she'll still be eye candy till at least Arod's contract runs out. It's those good genes.

[Yankees1962]

The wrong woman left YES. I wish it was that sorry Nancy Newman. She is absolutely horrible. I wish Kim the best, I think she did well and is very good on WFAN. Francesa should hire her for his show as she makes his program a lot better.

[Panamaniac42]

I thought she did a good job and improved and got more comfortable over time. I'd rather have Kim than some good-looking bimbo who doesn't know her stuff. I'm not watching the Yankees to get a boner.

[THEBOSS84]

I'll never forget when Randy Johnson poured champagne all over her after they clinched the playoffs in 2005.

My thoughts exactly. I didn't care for her at all when she first started, primarily because of her "how did you feel" questions. But about 6 years ago in Detroit she was waiting to do her spot on the pre-game and was standing near the dugout. I was standing in the stands behind the dugout watching BP and I asked her if she had an update on someones injury (forget now who it was). She said "Oh yeah" and flipped through her notebook and proceeded to give what seemed like her whole pre-game run down. Very cool. I wish her the best too.

I feel the same way-- I met her too and she was super nice. I even sort of got used to her
awful wardrobe as her style.

From reading the Post article, I think she's hoping for a regular gig locally - is she single? If she is, I can imagine wanting a break from the road too...I wish her the best - she's a class act.

I agree on that Nancy Newman - yikes. and she's kind of disturbing to watch...

[BronxYanks45]

can we get Hazel Mae??

[JDPNYY]

Hmmmm......

I think they should replace Kim with Suzyn Waldman.


No hear me out.


1) Over a 5 hour (including pre & post game shows) Yankee Broadcast, Kim would get about 20 minutes of air time.

2) Suzyn is very good at reporting.

3) Suzyn is not going to lose the Yankee gig.

4) 20 minutes of Suzyn is much preferable to 4 to 5 hours of Suzyn.

She left NESN...and no thanks - she slept with at least two RS players - Yankees don't need the distractions...

Funny thing is she is going on the auction block - where you can win a date with her for charity...some guy commented "I wonder if we'll be bidding against Varitek".

You left out one important fact. When listening to Suzyn, you don't have to see her face. When she's on TV, even for 20 minutes...well, you know..

Then maybe get a good analyst in the Radio Booth to drown out John Sterling.

You could look away. It's short bursts. 3 or 4 minutes at a time.

Kate Upton.

Kim Jones was appreciated because she was knowledgeable and I'd bang her but this man has the right idea.

I think I remember Suzyn doing the pre-games once in a while back when the Yankees were on MSG, whenever Trautwig was out

[fredgmuggs]

Kim seemed like a sweet person but I don't believe it will be very difficult to replace her contributions to the YES broadcast
