I can't understand how ESPN Executives let that happen. I know Yankee fans love him - and he will draw eyeballs that way - but with the MLB network launch being successful so far, and with them having some very talented analysts, I can't understand why ESPN would have allowed Winfield on their set at this point.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Because they obviously want to attract the more casual fans, meaning most Yanks fans and 95% of the country, while the MLB Network is geared toward more serious baseball fans who actually know a player or two outside of their favorite team's roster. Winfield is there for ratings, not expert analysis.
