Swan: Shocker! Tom Verducci slams CC Sabathia, A-Rod, and the Yankees - again Rough day for TV announcer types… Every Sports Illustrated Tom Verducci column ought to have the disclaimer “this author has financial ties with Joe Torre, so take everything the writer says about the Yankees with a grain of salt.” Make that a salt shaker.
