Dave Sims, Seattle Mariners TV Voice, Interested in New York Yankees Radio Job, per Report

Sims, a New York native, has called Mariners games since 1993

Dave Sims, the longtime television voice of the Seattle Mariners, has reportedly expressed interest in joining the New York Yankees' radio broadcast team on WFAN. According to Andrew Marchand of the New York Post, Sims is "intrigued" by the possibility of replacing John Sterling as the Yankees' play-by-play announcer.

Sims, 64, is a native of New York City and grew up a Yankees fan. He has called Mariners games since 1993, and is widely respected as one of the best broadcasters in baseball.

Sterling, 84, has been the Yankees' play-by-play announcer since 1989

Sterling, 84, has been the Yankees' play-by-play announcer since 1989. He is known for his signature home run call, "It is high, it is far, it is gone!" Sterling has also been criticized for his frequent mispronunciations and his tendency to talk over his broadcast partner.

Sterling's contract with the Yankees expires at the end of the 2023 season. It is unclear if the Yankees will offer him a new contract, or if they will look to replace him with a younger broadcaster.

Sims would be a popular choice to replace Sterling

Sims would be a popular choice to replace Sterling. He is a New York native with a deep knowledge of the Yankees and their history. He is also a skilled broadcaster with a strong voice and a clear delivery.

If Sims were to join the Yankees, it would be a major coup for the team. He would be a significant upgrade over Sterling, and he would help to bring a new level of excitement to the Yankees' radio broadcasts.
