    I'm liking the parka.

    Boras should retire if that's the deal.
  5. Optimist
    The same year we'll see his WBC again.

    No deal is worth dealing Hughes.

    Big mistake by the Yankees if it's true.

    The guy who voted Jeter as 6th was on with M&MD today. The guy was pathetic and clearly had no idea what he was talking about. audio: http://podcast.wfan.com/wfan/49495.mp3

    Just wait until teams start writing checks for pitchers.

    I'm also glad to see him go.

    He's saying Matsuzaka will win the Sox no World Series, so one is what he's asking for.

    Mazel Tov!

    Good job to Santana. And same to Wang. His first full season and he finished second in the Cy Young? Very nice. :thumbsup:

    There are reports of a White Sox - Yankees deal in the making. http://www.newsday.com/sports/baseball/mets/ny-liyanks1115,0,4107118.story?coll=ny-sports-headlines

    I thought we could just use a thread for this (rather than the 100+ page Yankee thread.) Moves Summary: Trades: November 11, 2006: OF Gary Sheffield to Tigers for SP Humberto Sanchez, RP Anthony Clagget, RP Kevin Whelan November 12, 2006: SP Jaret Wright to Orioles for RP Christ Britton Free Agency:

    For a second I thought this was the Matsuzaka thread. I was going to flip out.
  18. Optimist
    Prior to this year, Humberto was ranked #3 among Tiger minor league pitchers. Who were the two pitchers in front of him? Guys by the name of Verlander and Zumaya.

    Yeah, feel free to keep rolling that line out. Anyways, if you guys want to pay that much for him...go ahead; I honestly don't care. I'm not going to moan and whine all winter like another fan base would (and has.) The Yankees can, and most likely will, find a more than suitable answer to their pitching question elsewhere.

    Enlighten me. We've seen many examples of yours, but I haven't really see one for me. Not once, to my memory, have I said anything about Matsuzaka and changed it the instant he looked like he was going to the Sox.
  21. Optimist
    I was? I wanted him, undoubtedly. Not for $40 - $50 million (plus whatever contract)...but I did want him. Anyways, I made the statement because it's true. And I find it hilarious to watch someone who's spent days bashing the highly touted prospects the Yankees have received as 'unproven' and then, in the same breath, defend spending tens of millions (perhaps close to $100 million) on a guy who hasn't thrown a single pitch in any level of American baseball.

    Matsuzaka's a 'lottery ticket' but you seem quite content with that. And those 50 innings for Britton are 50 more than a guy you're willing to pay $40+ million for just to negotiate with.
  24. Optimist
    I wanted Matsuzaka, but I'm not bitter about the Sox overpaying him. It happens; I'm not going to whine and moan about it for months like you guys would. Anyways...someone's a little bitter about trading a guy who threw a no-no and the ROY for a guy with a 5+ ERA (and an attitude that's going to keep it there.)

    As this debate goes on, Hanley Ramirez is celebrating his rookie of the year award.
