Jeeze Mike T. You may need to add some more fiber to your diet. Maybe a little prune juice with breakfast?
Burnett: For some reason I think Burnett will work for the Yanks. Is he a risk? DEFINITELY. But that was my point. The Yanks need to continue to take some risks. The Yanks have [...]

Burnett – No thank you. Take away his games against the Yankees and his ERA climbs from 4.07 to 4.57. If he plays for the Yankees he can’t pitch against the Yankees. Burnett is 32. I don’t want to give him a 4+ year contract when he has a history of [...]

Let me go out on a very thick reinforced limb here and say the Phils win the Series. That makes the last six series 3 and 3 for AL and NL victories.
We always take it as written in stone that the AL is better than the NL as far as number of superior teams [...]

Could the Yankees possibly grab Cameron Maybin (CF) from the Florida Marlins? I would trade Cano for him. Maybin is 21 with exceptional speed, a great arm, and power. He has a great upside.
The Marlins may trade Uggla – but they would prefer to keep him. Could the Yanks grab Uggla too? Maybe send [...]

Russ…I know I was a big proponent of a trade for Peavy…but I’ve changed my mind:
1. I don’t want someone who a) Doesn’t want to play in the Northeast and B) wouldn’t jump at the chance to play for the Yankees. To me, these are a recipe for disaster. Peavy MAY not have the makeup [...]

Getting bashed the way he does. No seriously, I agree. Open the wallet they will as they must because as you say – Boston will be there, but Tampa isn’t going anywhere either.
I think the Yankees need to become involved in the discussion on two key players:
1) Texeira: Although I’m [...]

The Yanks need to open the wallet big time this offseason. Because they need to worry about more than just the Red Sox.
The Red Sox have a good young core. And they’ll be creative in the offseason. The Sox aren’t going anywhere for a while.
The Rays will be in the hunt again next [...]
