Great moments in presumptiveness

This would be better if it came from Hank, but it comes from Tyler Kepner of the NY Times:

But the Yankees might wish they could tell Brewers Manager Ned Yost to cut back on C.C. Sabathia’s innings – the Yankees don’t want their 2009 opening-day starter to be too tired when he arrives in the Bronx.

You know, just in case.

And yes, Kepner was just playing around, but it just read so funny, so strange.
