Acquired by the Phillies in the trade sending Pat Neshek to Colorado, JD Hammer is already garnering interest in the Philly sports landscape.
No, it’s not the name that better come with a great curveball that looks like someone dropping a hammer, but the history of tweets across his timeline.
Despite being in the Rockies organization, and now with the Phillies, Hammer is a prolific YANKEES fan according to his timeline. Not just tweeting out the lineup every day, but reflecting on the past success of the Bronx Bombers.
In fact, Hammer’s love for the Yankees goes as far back as the fateful 2009 World Series when the Yankees prevented the Phillies from taking back to back championships.
