So my post yesterday got me thinking… who are the 10 greatest players of all time?
Players whose careers are finished – so no A-Rod or Ken Griffey Jr., I’m not sure they would be on the list but let’s count them out. No Barry Bonds, either, because I cannot attribute what amount of his achievements [...]

I will stick in my two cents. Although having never seen any of them play. I have only reviewed the stats and read books (granted I never read a detailed biography on Mays, I will make sure I read this one).
To me, it is difficult to evaluate Mantle and compare him effectively to Mays. Injuries. [...]

Mantle vs. Mays
Francesca had a show yesterday on Willie Mays, which featured the author of a new book on Willie’s life. It was very interesting. Francesca said that he was a big Mantle fan (because he was a Yankees and not a Giant fan), but he also said that Mays was a better all around [...]

Absolutely no surprise, we could have scripted it ourselves. Jeter will not talk contract for the entire year. His presentation yesterday seemed more relaxed and less of the semi-robotic non-speak which is all he usually offers.
All Jeter needs is a solid year, if it approaches his performance of last year he has more cards, will [...]

First the positives:
Full season of A-Rod. He’s back and [...]

So Damon gets 1 year, $8 million from Detroit. I guess this saves a little face being that is is higher than the rumored $7 million per year the Yankees offered. I’m sure it makes him sleep much better. By the way, I thought Detroit got rid of Granderson to cut payroll?!
The Yanks sign Chan [...]
