The New York Yankees and its All-Star Derek Jeter were the topic of conversation this morning on Fox & Friends, as Yankee GM Brian Cashman was a guest participant in a standard, fun morning show segment. What was unique about this segment, however, was that co-host Gretchen Carlson was no where near the segment, unlike an interview she did with Jeter nearly one year ago to the day in which she failed to disclose that her husband was Jeter’s agent. Given her absence from this segment, its rather clear that her earlier transgression didn’t go over very well last year.

The real star of Yankees baseball this season? New York City congressman Anthony Weiner. When ESPN tried to switch the start time of a nationally televised September 27th Yankees match-up with the Boston Red Sox, Weiner sent a letter to baseball commissioner Bud Selig requesting the game be moved to avoid conflicting with the Jewish holiday of Yom Kippur.
