Phil Hughes is that dude. I think he should be a starter.

That's the thing. I can't even picture him starting anymore. He's been so dominant out of the 8th inning.

Honestly he should finish the season as the 8th inning guy... I'm to scared it will mess him up

He definitely has been a beast as a setup man but he has the stuff to be a starter.

^ Same thing with Joba but I think Hughes will be the bridge to Mariano (well at least for the remainder of the season & playoffs). Next season Phil needsto come back to the rotation..

Catcher Montero On Rapid Rise To Bronx
19th July, 2009 - 9:19 am
New York Post - Yankees catching prospect Jesus Montero is currently playing with Double-A Trenton as he rises quickly in the team's system.
"I was doing everything really good because I wanted to get here fast," Montero told The New York Post. "Thank God they gave me the opportunityto be here right now."
Yankees general manager Brian Cashman says that people have taken notice to Montero's play.
"People have taken notice, without a doubt," Cashman said. "All he's doing is outperforming the norm. . . . At that age it's extremelyimpressive.
"His work ethic is strong, and he's hungry and he cares and he's got ability. He's got to maintain that as he moves up the ladder, but so farit's nice to see he refuses to be denied."

Montero hit a game-tying grand slam the other night.
Trenton eventually won 6-5.

I don't think it's a secret that Posada is old. I'm pretty sure EVERY team knows that he's old.

u serious ?
posada means alot more than u know to the yanks especially in the clubhouse. it's common knowledge that jeter is a soft kinda captain. he's not reallygonna get in a guys face and let em know that they need too step it up. jeter leads by example. posada on the other hand has been called a pit bull in the clubhouse. very out spoken, dudes are shook to get on his bad side. posada is like jeter's underboss, anyone who follows the yanks knows this.
yanks realize posada importance with the team. he may not be the best defensively but his intangibles can't be overlooked.
anyway he makes too much money , no team is gonna be able to take that salary for a catcher .........

yea Posada is too old and owed too much money to be considered a trade piece
plus the yankees would be ******ed to trade him...he is every bit the leader of the team they say Jeter is
and he swings a hefty one

Oof. Because they didn't resign him even though it made no sense to? Toronto is trying to get cheap young talent, Posada is neither of those.
