WTF? lol

Heyman recently brought up the fact that the Yankees lineup might have issues with balance now that Swisher and Martin are gone and A-Rod will miss most of the season. Here are the players on the Yankees who had 100 AB against lefties and had an OPS above .700. Jeter, 214 AB, .941 OPS Rodriguez, 146 AB, .924 OPS Martin, 124 AB, .880 OPS Teixeira, 175 AB, .865 OPS Swisher, 185 AB, .769 OPS Granderson, 216 AB, .762 OPS Jones, 168 AB, .705 OPS As you can see most of them are no longer on the team or will be injured most of the year.

More like an A-Rod diet. He has 9% body fat.

Fangraphs names Granderson and Cano as candidates for decline. fangraphs.com/blogs/index.php/cano-granderson-and-other-clifford-candidates-for-2013

I would be interested if you guys would have me.

Here's Trout on photo day in spring of 2012. (put .jpg at the end of these links and that will give you the url) megasportsnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/Mike-Trout-LAA-full-courtesy-MLBpressbox.com_-268x300 Here he is now. binaryapi.ap.org/d5320be84d8146b59d5319217c934278/512x

The Dodgers would make sense considering the player he's named after. It must be strange to be a Yankees fan and have other teams willing to give out more outrageous contracts than your team. It's not so fun when you're the one being out-Yankeed.

10 years may not be a feasible request for the Yankees any longer, but there are other teams who are benefiting greatly from increased revenue and have money burning a hole in their pockets. The Yankees are no longer the least responsible team when it comes to giving out contracts. It could very well take 10 years to win a bidding contest between the Yankees, Dodgers and Nationals.

6 years/$150 is the bare minimum he'll get, 10 years/over $200 million is what he's asking for. What he'll actually get is probably closer to 8 years/$200 million.

There's nothing wrong with his arm. Either BA or BP ranked him the best infield arm in the Red Sox organization three or four years in a row. Again, you guys are making an issue where one doesn't exist.

He said it in a story two days ago. This web site won't let me post the link.

Price wouldn't sign with Yankees.

Isn't that what the Yankees refer to as "respect"?

Olney had this to say: "Cano's payoff is likely to be in line with the deals recently signed by Albert Pujols ($240 million for 10 years), Joey Votto ($225 million for 10 years) and Felix Hernandez, who recently signed a seven-year, $175 million contract extension with the Seattle Mariners to become the highest-paid pitcher in baseball history." If the Yankees aren't willing to sign him to such a reckless deal, the Dodgers don't have an all-star at second base yet and Cano is named after a certain former Dodger.

Trout reported to Spring Training this year weighing 240 pounds with 9% body fat. What are the chances he's clean?
