I might have to marry Ladanian Tomlinson. He's going to win me a lot of beer in my FFL.

Wow, sweet. Now I want to hear about his defense at first. -

Yankees resigned my favorite player for my birthday. Thank you Brian. -
I'll take them both. Screw Igwana.
-
I guess we get an excuse to start Phil Hughes at midseason then, don't we?
-
-
Work ethic problems and is the precursor to Manny Ramirez being dealt, I love this move.
-
I love it, I love it, I love it. Please make this happen Cash.
-
I've said it before, I am in favor of bringing Andy back.
-
We need to focus, damnit! Beat Buffalo! That's the season right now! I refuse to get ahead of myself, but it is nice being tied for the WC spot. Edit- and look at who the other contenders are playing this week. Yeesh.
-
I think he can be better than Willis, which plays into the "I don't want to trade him" mindset. Hughes has been compared favorably to Roger Clemens, and I don't want to trade a 20 year old Roger Clemens.
-
-
I understand that, but if they want to move Willis those are the kinds of risks they are going to take. They aren't going to move Willis for a proven veteran, they're going to move him for young, cheap players.
-
When its Delgado and LoDuca, they're short term players. Florida isn't looking to compete this year, so sending a couple of old guys to a divison rival isn't too bad. But when you're talking about trading a young star pitcher, you want to keep those far away from you. They're looking at facing Delgado for three years, but could look at facing Willis for a decade. That'll play into their decision.
-
Florida would deal Willis for just those two players in a heartbeat. That would be an extraordinarily stupid move by the Yankees. As a general rule I don't trade young, quality (potential superstar) pitching unless absolutely necessary. I dislike moving Proctor because of how important he is to the bullpen, and I love Melky because he is the perfect 4th outfielder to fill in due to an injury. It's a gamble, but if it lands Willis I'm not totally against it.
-
If you can guarantee me that Willis will have that kind of a season in the American League East, I'll take him. I think based upon empirical evidence that Wang is perfectly suited for the Yankees.
-
Wang 7th in the American League, Willis was 14th in the NL.
-
If he gets arbitration, I think you say goodbye to Ramirez.
-
This is like a soap opera. I don't see how it is at all possible for Manny to go back to that clubhouse and expect to be successful. They thrived on chemistry in 2004, and it seems like all of that is gone.
-
-
Go Richardson and Curry!
-
If you can name me one former Marlin pitcher who's had a good year in the AL East I'll drop it. Until he shows me he can do it, I'm taking Wang.
-
I'd rather have Wang, without question. This isn't being a homer, this is me looking at a guy whose already proven he can pitch in the AL East vs. a guy who hasn't. Until Willis shows to me he can do it here, I prefer Wang.
-
I've mentioned this possible trade a couple of times, before the rumors started. Don't sell Cabrera short defensively, he can play all three positions well. Personally I'm not that high on Willis, and probably wouldn't trade Melky and Sanchez.
