Im pissed, anyways here's our needs: Starting pitching 3rd baseman Bullpen pitching New Manager Pitching Balls Pitching Heart I might have forgot to mention pitching Anyways we need heart and balls the most. Im furious about that, at least go out fighting.
A-Rod to the Angels for Jered Weaver and Brandon Wood A-Rod to the Dodgers for Chad Billingsley and Andy LaRoche Either one works for me.
Me too although wed need to find a real sucker to get rid off our hands. i know the Angels said in the past theyd take him, but now I doubt it.
Well Moreno has promised to bring in one big time hitter, and I'm sure A-Rod out there in laid back California will go back to being the old A-Rod. Of course, in that scenario, he'll win the MVP, and single handedly beat us in the ALDS.
Nobody is going to give up talent for A-Rod after this. The Yankees are going to come off as desperate if they try to trade them, and the only way they'll move him is if they bend over and take it hard.
We need to get rid of Randy, Sheff, and most of our bullpen... get another new setup guy that doesn't suck.. I'm still not sold on getting rid of A-rod and I know I'll probably get smashed for that.. i just don't think anyone is going to give us anybody of his value.. im just as disgusted as you are but I would hate to give him up and get terrible value while eat most of his contract
-A rod to the angels for Chaun Figgins and Jared Weaver. -Decide between Cabrera and Matsui and trade the excess - I'm not a huge Barry Zito fan. But at least he is consistent and if we can prevent him from going to the Mets or Sox..all the better.
In our wildest dreams. All I can say is that I hope the Yankees trade for a starter instead of being lured into the trap of Zito (overrated) or Matsuzaka (too big a risk for my money.)
I wouldn't say it is so far-fetched a package like that comes back for A-Rod. Cashman won't trade him if he doesn't receive a good package back. He'll be selling the fact that, outside of NY, A-Rod might be the best player of our generation. If others don't want to buy that line, then so be it.
WHO I WANT BACK NEXT YEAR: C: Jorge Posada 1B: 2B: Robinson Cano SS: Derek Jeter 3B: LF: Melky Cabrera CF: Johnny Damon RF: Bobby Abreu DH: Hideki Matsui & Bernie Williams SP: Chien-Ming Wang, i wouldn't mind Mussina (as a #3 pitcher), wouldn't mind Wright as a #5 starter RP: Mariano River, Scott Proctor, Ron Villone (maybe), Kyle Farnsworth (maybe), Mike Myers (why not)
Walsh, I think the Yankees would be better off with Giambi instead of Matsui, and Matsui would probably be easier to move. (Giambi is still under contract, right? If not, neglect what I just said)
They should just cut A-Rod, since no one would pick up that big salary. ...or just get a 3rd baseman specialist for the postseason.
Suzyn Waldman's head on a plate. I honestly cannot take 1 more game with her. If I ever go to prison, I expect to get credit for time served for all the games I've had to listen to her. Sterling is bad enough, but she's toxic. How can the Yankees put such shit on the air? There cannot possibly be any professional consensus that she's even passable, she has to go. And, um, Sheffield too.:drunk: :drunk:
A-Rod's postgame comments were interesting. "I am 100% committed to being a Yankee... unless they're dying to get rid of me." Pretty PR move. He's a goner.
Honestly at this point I think it's a game of chicken between ARod and the Yanks. ARod seems open to leaving and at this poin there is no shortage of reasons for the Yankees to want to move on.
I agree with you there, and I do think that we could get Billingsley/LaRoche in return for A-Rod. But considering how Bill Stoneman holds his prospects, the idea of getting both Weaver and Wood in one deal is a wet dream. Maybe something centered around Ervin Santana is more realistic.
i hope the mets pursue mussina he would be great in the nl mussina zito maine glavine pelfrey and have pedro do the clemens thing.dont pitch until july
