It helps them keep the team because if they did not act like they cared at all then eventually baseball would have to step in, so the did the minimum...

The Wilpons have armed themselves with scrubs so they won't have to bring their best pitchers with them to start the season. We wouldn't want those...

It took around three years for the term "payroll flexibility" to become thoroughly discredited. I wonder how long it'll take for the same to happen...

I don't recall ever calling you a fool. You and lots of others here were just wrong. Being wrong isn't automatically the same as being a fool. ...

You know, I started more or less this same thread going on four years ago. ...

Jordan got Collins canned. Phil was in the right place at the right time. Phil's departure from the Bulls was well timed. His stature then...

I was excited about the Knicks during those brief periods. Unfortunately Jim Dolan was mesmerized at the notion of playing host to the Carmelo...

Reminds me of when some people were thrilled that Sandy Alderson had signed on to be Mets GM. In pro sports franchises the fish usually rots from...

That would be my ideal scenario too. Puello has a much bigger upside than Lagaras, and you are not losing much putting Young in CF. An outfield of...

I personally do not think so but I would love to be wrong. I really like Austin Jackson a lot. I think he's a heck of a ball player. Lagares does...

I am not expecting much out of any of our outfielders to be honest. I am expecting Granderson to hit 235 with 23 homers, 72 RBI, a 310 OBP, really...

RA Dickey's and Marlon Byrds are so rare, that I doubt we catch lighting in a bottle again, but if we do, props to our front office

I'm confused. What does this have to do with Curtis Granderson again? This is way over my head

Smart people never need to tell people how smart they are. Crazy people never need to tell people how crazy they are. Tough people never need to...

What I've found is that the people with the most schooling don't usually care. I say this more from facebook and other sites where I actually have...

Yay! Syndergaard struggled. Now fans that had little to hope for going into this season can lower their expectations! I can see why you would thank...

have you ever headed up or overseen a company? Payroll and talent have a direct correlation. Every entrepreneur is looking for the Matt Harvey, the...

I was against the Carmelo trade when it happened. If he really wanted to come here to win he would have taken a few million less to come as a...

Think about it. The only way that extra year matters is if he's great and the Wilpons don't want to pay him what he's earned after six years. ...

So the argument is there's no correlation between how good a player is and what they're paid. What a fine argument. I think I understand it now....

People said this about the Murphy at 2nd experiment and I think he has proven to be a better than league average second baseman when taking the whole...

No surprise here. http://nypost.com/2014/03/02/amazins-still-plagued-by-tejada-problem/ Anyone going to defend them tanking another season?

I'm sure its been said already, but I really hope we are pretending to go after Franklin and Owings so that we can drive down the value of Drew, and...

Excellent break down. I can see all of this being a reality. Not quite so hopeful on 80 wins, but more than 73 seems like a safe bet

Just wondering- have the Jets ever drafted the person that we thought they would? Maybe with Millner last year, but not the next several picks.

I think you're spot on on Montero's projection, but your projection on Wheeler bugs me. He dominated at times last year. The only reason he would...

Hey WriteStuff, you know we often do not agree, but this is an honest question- which facets of the game do you really see Tejada as better than Drew...

So far I've been right about all of the ones except for the ones everyone else has been wrong about

I was not commenting on your feelings on the Mets. I'm right there with you. I watch every game, go to as many as possible, follow the minors, get...

The pot called. He wanted me to give you a message. You're black
