“Put me in coach, I’m ready to play – today.” I don’t know why any words, energy or breath is wasted on A-Rod or Jeter moving to CF. It’s not happening. If Jeter didn’t change his position for A-Rod, why would he do it now? It was clear when A-Rod came, [...]

Is that a strategy- problem in center so screw up the infield? Jeter has the arm, but why burn out his legs as he heads into his middle 30’s? Is this a trial balloon my management to see if Jeter, a true team player (unlike Piazza with his much more logical move to [...]

Jeter in Center… Joe Torre rarely says anything that hasn’t been thought out. Now he is back-tracking. Do you think he is sending a subtle message? The NY Times picked up on this and is now suggesting that this makes alot of sense. Jeter to Center, A-Rod to Short, and Yankees [...]

Farnsworth is not great, but there are few good options out there. That is fine.
The other rumors – NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO AND NO!
They are nuts if they are considering moving Jeter or A-Rod. I hope that’s just talk to signal to other teams that the Yanks will [...]

In “The Empire Strikes Back,” Obi Wan Kenobi’s force ghost tells Luke: “This is a dangerous time for you, Luke. One when you will be tempted by the dark side of the Force.”
And so it is for the Yankees. The Red Sox were just done an incredible favor by the Marlins [...]

The Yankees are in serious talks with free agent reliever Kyle Farnesworth.
Joe Torre commented that he has considered moving either A-Rod or Jeter to CF.
Rumor has it that the Yanks may be in talks with Oakland on a deal sending some combination (potentially, Wang, Cano) for Zito and Payton.

I didn’t notice this until today, but Boston also got Guillermo Mota in the Beckett deal. This pisses me off to no end. Boston gets a 25 yr old arbitration elligible World Series MVP and a Gold Glove caliber 3rd baseman who has serious power potential AND and an above average set up [...]

The reason the Mets are throwing $$ around is because they can. Under the CBA if you exceed the cap this year for the first time (or you did not exceed the cap last year) then you will not be hit with a luxury tax. Pretty good for the Mets who only have [...]

Well, the Mets seem to be doing the interesting deals. The news for a Yanks is that they haven’t- but on the positive side they have not made any dumb deals yet either. Waiting for ANY shoe to drop is getting a bit nerve wracking.

I completely support keeping the younger guys and not committing big money to an aging player – BUT – aren’t they going to do something???? Anything????
CF is a big problem (Hideki and Crosby are not the answer.) They should send Pavano to the Cubs for Corey Patterson.
The bullpen is in desperate need of [...]
