PLAYING TIME: Yankees sign Ibanez to DH
Feb 22 2012

Ibanez newest Yankee DH
The Yankees finally made official what seemed fait accompli for weeks when they inked Raul Ibanez (DH, NYY) to a one-year contract. Ibanez, who turns 40 in June, returns to the AL for the first time since 2008 to become the Yankees’ primary DH.
Ibanez is a durable player who has had less than 500 AB only once in the past ten years. He’s now expected to exploit the short right-field porch of Yankee Stadium (+43% LHB HR). Do his previous three years with PHI support those expectations?
