    Beltran is a Yankee
    talk about desperation 3 years 45 mil. 15 mil. a year for a 36 year old. Don't think Yanks realize they need to make the playoffs before Beltran could deliver in the playoffs.

    They still need pitching and the Mets need a #5 hitter to play 1B.....sign Kendrys Morales already Alderson.

        So far it Kuroda, C.C. Sabathia and Ivan Nova. Maybe Michael Pineda too for 20 starts.

                Beltran, Ellsbury, Soriano, Texieria, Jeter, McCann, A-Rod (when he comes back), Gardner or Ichiro

                Yankees will probably trade Brett Gardner and one of their top catcher prospects for a stud pitcher or Brandon Phillips

                  Yanks just overreacted (once again) to Cano leaving.

                  Instead of trying to work out a trade for Price or going after Jimenez, they toss $45M at a 36 year old, injury prone, outfielder.

                  Top notch, Cashman.

                  In the meantime, the Sox sign a player that fell in love with the city of Boston and how the Sox do things. I'd rather have Napoli at 16/yr then Beltran at 15 (and one more year )

                      CC = Has Been
                      Kuroda = Never Was
                      Nova = Might Have Been
                      Pineda = Unknown already with arm problems.

                      Hmm.....

                        Didn't Kuroda have a decent year?

                          Gardner is your everyday left fielder, chief. Sure, that lineup looks good on paper but what happens when Ellsbury gets hurt, Jeter doesn't produce, Tex is the same slugger?? Talk about fukked. No pitching. No bench. Aging lineup (again).

                          A-Rod is out for the entire 2014 season too. Just another year to sit and gather some dust.

                            They're not done at all.....They were talking Beltran for a while now, no over reaction

                              Soriano is the starter in Left......Gardner and a prospect for a stud pitcher or 2B, just remember you heard it here first

                                $15 mil is a lot?

                                3 years maybe but not the money

                                  Yes, they were. You're right. However, if the Yanks sign Cano....no Beltran. It's pretty sad when your backup plan is a 36 year old outfielder, which they didn't necessarily need, especially at that price. Gardner and Soriano have proven they can handle the corner outfield postions.

                                    It's a bigger contract than he deserved. There is a reason only a few teams were going after him

                                      You keep saying it's a backup plan.....They were signing Beltran with or without Cano.....Google Beltran Yankees and there's shit about it from a month ago

                                      He's a huge upgrade in right field over Ichiro at this point, bottom line

                                          Evil empire keeps trying to buy championships, I guess I would also but they just seem to waste so much money and dont seem very good at it.

                                                they got so many out fielders they dunno what to do with.

                                                good thing for DH spot. (which Beltran hates hitting in btw)

                                                  Garder, Ichiro, Ellsbury, Beltran, Soriano and Vernon Wells

                                                  wtf u do with that?

                                                  Ellsbury in center.......than everything is a toss up besides Wells being a bench play

                                                  Ichiro is a complete diva and is not going to move from RF for Beltran. Beltran hates Dhinng. so...assuming Ellsbury in center...Ichiro in right and Beltan in left

                                                  Gardner used for pitching? (trade)

                                                    I don't give two shits if the Yankees give me $400 million dollars. I hate the Yankees.

                                                    Big Bad Hal has been saying since his shitty teams missed the playoffs that they're going to stay under the $189 million luxury tax number.

                                                    Wrong.

                                                    There is absolutely no rhyme or reason to the things that Baby Hal signs off on. At least with the old man I could see WHY he was making decisions. This guy + Cashman are clueless together.

                                                    GO SOX!

                                                      Soriano back to 2B where he started with the Yankees would be cool

                                                      Gardner a nice trade piece

                                                        wtf u do with that?

                                                        Ellsbury in center.......than everything is a toss up besides Wells being a bench play

                                                        Ichiro is a complete diva and is not going to move from RF for Beltran. Beltran hates Dhinng. so...assuming Ellsbury in center...Ichiro in right and Beltan in left

                                                        Gardner used for pitching? (trade)
                                                        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

                                                                Why are people hating this deal? Yankees needed a proven run producer. Beltran gives them that. Sure, he is older - but he can still rake if he stays healthy.

                                                                He's been reasonably healthy the last two years and will benefit from the shorter RF porch for power and whether he likes it or not, Girardi is going to slot his ass at DH some to reduce wear and tear. Serviceable lineup now. They may have overpaid a shade, but they wanted the deal done before the Winter Meetings presumably so they know what they can or cannot do with any potential further signings or trades.

                                                                I still think they did a fairly solid job of filling a lot of holes and not biting on the overpriced Cano deal to do so.
