Curse Fail

Earlier in the year, Gino Castignoli, a construction worker at the new Yankee Stadium, tried to jinx the team by burying a David Ortiz jersey 2-feet under the Stadium’s brand new concrete floor. Once Castignoli’s actions were made public, the jersey was subsequently removed by the Yankees and donated to the Jimmy Fund.
In 2009, the Yankees won the World Series and David Ortiz hit .238/.332/.462.
Talk about bad karma.

Don’t forget about John Henry twittering “Curse of Teix”.

John Henry looks like a zombie. I can’t even imagine him using Twitter.

Seriously. Not only did Ortiz’s credibility fall to steroids in 2009, he also had the worst year of his career (in Boston). I still could see him rebounding in 2010, particularly if his wrist continues to heal over the winter. It was almost sad to see how bad he had become earlier in the year.
