NEW YORK -- Between cranking second-deck homers and reveling once again in the adoration of Yankee Stadium's Bleacher Creatures, former New York Yankees outfielder Nick Swisher spent part of this past weekend doing something else he loves to do: talking.
When it came to raving about the parade of young, up-and-coming stars who have spent time in the Bronx this spring, he just couldn't shut his mouth.
"It's almost like our Triple-A roster is a major league roster," the always energetic Swisher said at Sunday's Old-Timers' Day festivities, chuckling as the octaves in his voice went up.
