Good point. Cashman gets pissed on a lot, but I think he did a pretty fair job this off-season of making NY a much better team than last year at least on paper assuming some health. If Girardi can piece them together like he did with the mess they had last year that remained fairly competitive in the race .. they have a reasonable chance to be in the Wildcard mix. I doubt they are done yet either ... would not be surprised to see a trade for pitching or the other possibility of them slotting Robertson into the rotation and then taking someone like Balfour or Rodney to close.

rumor is ichiro to giants for scutaro solves both problems gets rid of the extra out fielder and gets them their second basemanComment -
Beltran hit .296/.339/.491 with 24 homers in 600 PA with St. Louis last season, and though he turns 37 in April, Beltran has thus far kept swinging a big bat deep into the late stages of his career. He'll no doubt see some DH at-bats in New York but he'll spend most of his time in right field while the more defensively-challenged Alfonso Soriano will be the Yankees' primary DH, USA Today's Bob Nightengale reports.
The D'Backs were just onComment -
guess Ichiro is a bench player. didn't realize the fuker is 40.Comment -
Forgot they still have Wells too. Someone's ass is getting dumped.Comment -
Yanks have all injury prone guys
Beltran of course is a pro hitter but way overpaid for his age
Some teams do not get it you win with young guys and good pitching
Its why Yanks are horrible nowComment -
Great retaliation tactic by New York after the Cano signing. Yankees will get a post-season superstar with money to spare; love the move.Comment -
i hate agreeing with gold so muchComment -
Ichiro sucks...they need to move him...they should keep Gardner...he's one of their youngest players. Gardner 9/Ellsbury 1 is lethal...Comment -
Yes -
LF Gardner
CF Ellsbury
RF Beltran
also..
People are assuming A Rod will sit out 2014. His plan all along was to take this to federal court . He will file an injunction and be on the field this year . If he plays this year and loses his appeal and is suspended for 2015 he will save himself 7 mil by delaying his suspension.Comment -
That guy may not be available for bids. They are trying to rework the bidding system to put a cap at $20 million instead of getting into the bidding wars like there have been before or where one team could totally shoot past everyone else.
Japanese teams may not be happy not getting the huge pay days. It's Tanaka. If the new system is implemented, it's going to be an all our crapshoot and will be whomever sells the kid better. He's a stud in his prime though, so everyone will want him.Comment -
Good move by the yanks. Most important thing was not keeping that pos cano.Comment -
Yanks issue is pitching
CC SAB is their ace and he is doneComment -
Fukking go sox!!!!! Thief whole Yankee team is on the disabled list. I give jeter 45 games next year. Beltran will be out at least 50. A rod is out. Texeira will be shit. Elsbury will do well but he only does so much. If ur going into a season and elsbury ( my prediction) is going to be ur best offensive player. Ur fukked!!!!!
GOOOOOOOO SOOOOOOOOOXXXXXXXXX!!!!!!!!!Comment -
LF: Soriano
CF: Ellsbury
RF: Gardner
That was the initial plan. Now with this horrible signing, I'm assuming they're going to put Soriano on the bench and move Gardner to RF. Off the bench they'll have Soriano, Wells and Ichiro (which I'm sure is going to ruffle some feathers)
Team blows.
Team ERA = 8.43
OMG STFU YOUR CLUELESS .. gardner in RF ? just stop .. go troll some other forum cause your mad that the yankees are making some moves..Comment
