Friday morning may not have started as you anticipated, but here we are. An intriguing rumor has emerged from a New York City radio caller regarding Seattle Mariners’ broadcaster Dave Sims potentially joining the Yankees’ Radio Network in the future. As shared by Jimmy Traina of Sports Illustrated on social media, a caller claiming to be a doctor to all NY radio broadcasters asserts that Suzyn Waldman mentioned Dave Sims as a possible candidate to replace John Sterling for the Yankees job.
It is important to approach this information with caution, as radio callers can sometimes bring forth unreliable claims. However, there are several key factors to consider. Firstly, the Yankees Radio Network currently has an opening following Sterling’s retirement earlier this season, leading to the utilization of temporary fill-ins. The prestigious nature of the Yankees Radio Network and the allure of becoming the voice of the Yankees cannot be overlooked.
Dave Sims, originally from Philadelphia, has been with the Mariners since 2007. While the validity of these rumors remains uncertain, Sims’ roots on the East Coast and existing ties in the region through his work in Big East basketball might make an opportunity with the Yankees appealing. As the Mariners face the Royals on Friday evening, it will be interesting to see how this situation develops.
