SAME MEL, NEW ROLE.
February 6, 2006 -- Even though the Yankees have a new pitching coach, their old one will still be joining them for spring training later this month.
Mel Stottlemyre, who retired following the end of last season because he was tired of the second-guessing coming out of Tampa, will be coming to Yankee spring training in a celebrity coaching capacity, The Post has learned.
Stottlemyre, who was replaced by new pitching coach Ron Guidry, will work with the pitchers for all of spring training.
