It's pretty much a lock that he's going to sign with the Yankees, but until he officially does so, he is still a free agent. Tentative/prospective deals should not be taken as fact until they're officially announced. No source has said that the contract has been signed yet. Brad E. Williams21:39, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
Someone that knows what they are doing should give this man a gold medal decal thing under his picture.[reply]
Back in the early to mid-1990s when Mientkiewicz was at FSU, I was in grad school at Clemson and working on my MA in History; my thesis pertained to baseball history. I love the Tigers baseball team and went to all their home games the entire time I was in Clemson. The visiting team's dugout is on the third base side; I always sat pretty much behind home plate. This was also during the time that Bud Light had their, "Yes I am!" ad campaign, which had started out with the guy pretending to be a doctor with a surname of similar ethnicity to Doug's in order to nab the doctor's limo, which was confirmed to hold Bud Light. If y'all haven't seen the ads, they are available on YouTube. So one game against FSU, in between innings, one group of Clemson students over by the FSU dugout shouts out, "Hey, aren't you Doug Mientkiewicz?" and another group shouts in response, "YES I AM!" I thought it was hilarious. I'm probably the only person who remembers it. Kelelain (talk) 16:40, 23 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
