Word out of the Twitterverse is that the Yankees are closing in on signing free agent first baseman Nick Johnson:
NYY on the verge of signing Nick Johnson. Contract details to be worked out -- it's not final -- plus the physical. At the 1 1/2 yard line.
But as ESPN's Keith Law points out, Johnson and physicals don't necessarily get along:
I think that the physical is more than a formality when the player in question is Nick Johnson. #manofglass
Johnson is an on-base machine, but may be best known for his ability to never stay healthy. Johnson batted .291 with a .426 OBP in 133 games between the Nationals and Marlins last year.
