when theres no valid argument people usually respond like uneducated junior high boys. congrats!

The more I come into this forum the more I realize I have outgrown it.

[rrzubnyy]

I would rather go with the same team again.....there is nothing out there unless they want Josh and Hal is not signing off on that...

Resign Ibanez along with Hairston to DH

Resign Swisher or get Josh

If no to both then resign Ichiro....

5.4 runs per game is enough to help CC, Kuroda, Pettitte, Hughes and Nova win 95 games as long as Mo is 100% and a decent setup is signed...

Roll the bones!

The same happens at every board..need new posters....Yanksguy is ok if you can drink when reading his responses...he is reliable and a safe poster with the Yankees info as well...he knows the team pretty well..

id only get josh if he came with a 4 year deal and there was a way to unload some contract or trade cano

But they would save with

Mo 15 million
Pettitte 8-10 million
Grandy's expected 15 million
Ichiro's 4-5 million
Cano's 15 million

That is freeing up 60 million just right there after the 2013 season

Sign Josh as contracts will expire after this season..

I would just sign smaller names to replace the ones who are bolting for bigger $$$$$$$$$ or use minor leaguers like they did with Jeter in 1996.....

By then Adams should be ready to replace Cano and Mason Williams to replace Grandy

Banuelos replaces Pettitte
Phelps replaces Kuroda

There you have it and all under 189 million even with Josh's $25 million per.....

Banuelos just had Tommy John surgery he won't pitch in 2013. 2014 will be a rehab year and 2015 is probably the earliest you could possibly see him in the bigs and that really depends on how he rehabs

[rrzubnyy]
