He wants too re-sign with the yankees. He is waiting too see what they decide before he tries with another team.

They haven't made him an offer yet. No idea if they actually want to re-sign him or not. Don't know what direction they are going to go with right field as of right now. Still early in the off season though.

How does the Pirates outbid the Yankees with a position that the Ayankees needed?

Of course Mauer is not worth the money, jut questioning the Yankees..

Cashman says that right field is more of a priority than catching. Yankees starting catcher may be on this team already, he says.

interesting, i can't see a platoon of Cervelli and Romine is a winning formula. I;m not even sure Romine is ready because of his issues with his back.

Cashman most have something up his sleeve he's working on, either way the mention of RF being the bigger priority doesn't sound real promising for Ichiro returning unless they trade one of Grandy or Gardner

I'm completely fine with letting Martin go and going cheap at catcher if it means they put more money into RF.

Agreed.

jp arencibia will happen for Joba and 2 minor leaguers, watch!

I hope not.. JP isn't even that good... Soto would be just as cheap and pretty much the same crap.


Though if we did a Joba deal AND signed Soria I might be ok with it..

I just read the Yankees never even made an offer to Martin.. SWEET!


Also Nats are shopping Morse which is interesting..

Gotta love NY.

[YANKSGUY]

never happen pro athletes are the greediest people

It wouldn't happen because the players union wouldn't allow it.

you can skip them if you have the talent. Look at Jeter he went straight into the Yankees lineup after he was drafted. Now i am not saying he will be this great hitter but put him in a lineup with Jeter,Arod,Texeria,Cano,Granderson etc this kid would not have any pressure on him and in my opinion help him develop alot faster

Jeter did WHAT? LOL!!!!!

[TallicaFan87]

Jeter did WHAT? LOL!!!!!

Its true. Besides those 4 years he spent in the minors he went right into the Yankees lineup.
