Nobody said they will fall apart (at least that I know of), I said that they are in pretty bad shape.

2003 World Series MVP. IF I recall correctly, he hasnt been too impressive since then. :wink: And regarding the 2004 World Series MVP, correct me if i'm wrong, but doesnt he appear to be on his way out of town?? How can you say they are nto falling apart? They have no shortstop, no leadoff man, no center fielder, a closer who blew in 2004 (when he was healthy), an ace who blew last year (also when he was healthy, but if I recall correctly, wasnt he spending some tim ein the bullpen when he was healthy because he SUCKED as a starter?), and a number 2 who gets blisters like men get facial hair. A slugger who wants out, and has threatened a holdout if he is not traded, a very shaky rotation, a third baseman coming off a pretty bad year, a first baseman who is actually a 3rd baseman, platooning shortstops (Tony G and Cora, unless they decide to platoon those 2 at second and let Loretta play short), and a front office who is having a pretty difficult time since Theo was chased out of town BY that front office (good move guys). Maybe falling apart was too rough a term, but I wouldnt exactly call them the organization of the year. ...and I knew ORS would call me out on that one too

Eric Byrnes is close to signing with the Diamondbacks. Arizona Republic

Yea kind of biased about the Division champs statement if you ask me. Granted, NY media often jumps to that same conclusion, but its usually when our team is in good shape, not falling apart (talent wise and organizational wise).

I agree, I think the "6 Year" Team is ********, im just telling you what I heard. I heard that they offered him 6 years and then threw a number out there, and then said they would call him back with an exact number. They never called back and then eventually signed Kenny Lofton. I heard that he would had signed with the Dodgers though, had they called back. Just telling you what I heard. My source could potentially be a VERY VERY GOOD source, or a VERY VERY BAD source, I have yet to determine.

couldnt this have been posted in the Yankees Offseason thread, rather than making another thread to keep track og?? lol, jp ...I like this move. I tell ya, its about time, we've been hearing about it for over a month.

double post

thanks a lot, hadnt seen that yet.

I heard that it was the Dodgers.

lol...shh!!

Thats right baby! lol

He is dumber then we all thought...I will elaborate later

Didnt the Sox also reject a trade for Lou Gehrig in 1925??

no, im dead serious.

He did call you out on a trivia question, you going to answer it? I think you should considering you and Sweet Chin Music33 have been questioning us Yankee fans as to our Yankee knowledge.

I just talked to Johnny!! NO LIE!!

He SAW Giambi "chew him out", he didnt hear Giambi say that he chewed him out. I remember this as well, and it wasnt after the series against the Yankees that it happened, at least im pretty sure it wasnt if memory serves correctly.

Good one, cant say I know that one. (Not because im a frontrunning Yankee fan who knows nothing about his team's history, but because it was years before my time, so dont pull a sweetchinmusic and say that im a frontrunner because I dont know it. )

isnt it Ron Blomberg (sp)?? I dont remember the team ...oops, looks like others got it before me (I posted the answer as soon as I saw the question, but for some reason it took a few minutes to load :dunno: oh well

good question ...and dont get the wrong idea behing my "too huge" comment...I like them very much

anyone besides me find it that SoSH has a ad for "Redken 5th Avenue NYC" on their front page??

The Braves wouldnt do this ocnsidering Chipper re-negotiated his contract to help the Braves out and the fact that they traded Marte. Why would the Sox trade Manny for McPherson and Figgins? The Sox have a future 3Bman in Marte, and where would Figgins play, CF?

I made the update for Randa, Bradford and I threw Cairo in as well, just with "date pending" where the date would go.

Dont encourage them to keep him!!! ...I want him OUT of the AL East.

Thoe things are huge, maybe a little too huge!
