  1. Zito, Santana? Who know what happens in '08 and beyond.
  2. Personally, I voted to get Soriano. Errors mean nothing. It's not an error if the ball gets by you and rolls around the OF corner for a triple. It's not an error if a pop up hits fair by the Pesky pole and bounces into the stands for a double that should have been an out. He looked like a deer caught in the headlights out there. He was so bad that the coaching staff criticized his work ethic in the field. As for his hitting, I will wait for him to make some consistent contact against above average pitchers before I bat him any higher than 7th.
  3. Of course the logical conclusion from this is that the Yankees will have 2 pups like Hughes and Sanchez to go with Wang in the starting rotation. Yes, those are the Yankees that I know. They always have 3 starters averaging age 25 in their rotation.
  4. I edited my post to include a link to his '06 stats. Several arms on the Yankee staff will have to explode for him to log 50 innings by the end of '08.
  5. This is the guy? Dominating? http://www.tigerscentral.com/players.php?pnum=22278 Edit --More updated stats: http://www.rotowire.com/baseball/player.htm?id=8018
  6. Give me a ring when one of these guys gets 50 innings with the big team If it happens before the end of '08, I'll get you two ticket to watch your team play in that toilet in the Bronx.
  7. Hey any Yankee fan that steals my lines has to pay a royalty. Cut it out or I'll have you served with papers.
  8. The Yankees picked up his option purely to keep him from the Red Sox. They didn't care what they got. None of these guys will help the Yankees in 2007 and maybe...maybe Sanchez gets a cup of coffee in 2008 if they get some injuries. They will hope anyone of these guys pans out. If not they will use them as trading chips at the deadline. Detroit's Dombrowski wasn't going to give up big time talent for a 38 year old broken down outfielder with a $14 million/year price tag. Yankee fans look at that glass again. It's half empty.
  9. Maybe the Red Sox don't think Pena has what it takes. He was helpless against above average pitching and he looked like a bufoon in RF.
  10. Middle Relief and spot-starter.
  11. Hopefully Crisp can revert to his prior form and they can have a speed weapon at the top of the lineup. There are few things that would be as exciting as Crisp scoring from first base on a two out single.
  12. Who voted for Trot? It wasn't me.
  13. Drew is 31 and you think he has $25 million more in his tank than Nixon?
  14. Welcome Mommy.
  15. At $33 million over 3 years for Drew or $8 million for Nixon over 2 years, who do you pick?
  16. I am surprised at his decision. I don't see any team taking a chance on him as a closer, and I don't see any team giving him $3.75 million guaranteed to pitch the 7th or 8th.
  17. If the offer is rejected, we will not know which team submitted the bid?
  18. Why wouldn't it be announced?
  19. What takes so long to open the bids and figure out which is the highest?:dunno:
  20. In 1971 none of New England wanted them.
  21. If he had been juicing, I think he would have been throwing harder than 88-89 in those years. He used to hit mid-90's. By '03-04, he'd already lost that velocity, yet he was very effective. Also, I didn't notice a big change in him physically other than he got a little fat in '05 due to lack of training because of the knee problems.
