Happy Thanksgiving! Well, it appears that Aaron Rowand is off the table. I just read the Phillies sent Thome to the White Sox for Rowand. I guess that also means the White Sox are not going to sign Konerko. The options are getting fewer and fewer…
Unless there have [...]

I agree on the CF issue. I would rather see the Yanks not do anything and piece it together for a year and see what happens next season. Damon is asking for too much in years and $$$ to consider him. I’d give him maybe 3 for 30 mill, but his agent [...]

With the Marlins Fire Sale in full swing (Delgado supposedly going to the Mets for Mike Jacobs and a prospect I never heard of AND Marlins throwing $7M to the Mets) it can’t be too long before the Yankees get Jaun Pierre for Colter Bean and Andy Philips. Again Jeff Loria is [...]

We’ll see if Beckett stays healthy and can adjust to the American league batters. Lowell is another clog in the basepaths that the Yankees certainly don’t need.
The Yankees inability to sign a centerfielder thus far is going to push them closer to signing Damon and probably giving him the riduculous seven years [...]

I don’t mean to sound like “sour grapes.” Would I take Beckett? In a heartbeat. Beckett still has tremendous upside because of his age and talent. This is a great deal for the Red Sox talent wise. The other side of the equation however, is that Beckett has never achieved [...]

Clement and Miller looked like good signings last year. Theo wanted Contreras and Vasquez and look at how those guys turned out.
I agree with Russ. The Beckett deal looks good now. Let’s see what it looks like in June when he is on the bench. (I say that hoping [...]

I want to hear the people that complain about the Yankees’ large payroll complain about this deal. The only reason why this deal happens is because the Red Sox were willing to take on Lowell’s salary. The Marlins have been trying to unload Lowell on someone for two years now. The deal [...]

Good deal for The Sox. Lowell, coming off a bad year, is bound to play better and they didn’t give up much.
I hope Beckett turns into Carl Pavano Part Deux.

One of my co-workers started jury duty today in White Plains. One of her fellow Jury pool members is Joe Torre. Wonder if he will be fair to any defendants who are Red Sox fans.

Ok – so I was talking to Mike while he was looking up Giles’ stats. Not as bad as I thought. Good on base %, good OPS, about 64 Ks last season. Not bad. Here are my issues then I guess: He’s 35. That’s not ideal because he’s on [...]
