Well i was never really a fan, i felt Manny would have complimented Arod more. Tex and Arod seem to be the same personality wise to me. Guess i have to getused to it though.
Teixeira to Yankees...

The payroll will be around last year's or a little higher I don't like this signing much. George always said he wanted the Yankees to be bigger thanManchester United on the world scale lol.

You'd have to think so... Especially if they want another starting pitcher...
Damon, Jeter, Teixeira, Rodriguez, Nady, Matsui, Swisher, Posada, Cano ... That's more than enough offensive production, I'd think...
just when i was getting giddy that the Nationals might actually land Tex upon the news it was between the Red Sox and Nats...
You've been kidding yourself for weeks now... He was never going to sign with a crappy organization that had no chance of being competitive for several years...
I would think Damon or Matsui will probably be traded at some point.

The Yankees cant sign Manny....a team can only sign 3 Type A free agents in one offseason.

I knew once they got rid of Giambi this would happen the Nats are my team but Tex wouldn't do anything for us to get into the playoffs all he'd dowould be our lone all star maybe we can use that money we saved and go after pitching.

Thought it was four... ?
Sucks for the Brewers and Toronto, though... Now instead of getting first rounders for their Type A guys, they get second and third rounders respectively...
And the Brewers might not even get a first rounder from Sheets leaving, either... Up to this point nobody has shown any interest whatsoever in him than theRangers, and their first rounder is protected because it's in the Top 15...
Talk about a rough off-season...

For what, though? I can't imagine either would have much value at all on the trade market unless the Yankees were paying most of the contract...
they can go offer matsui to the giants for johnathan sanchez (i hope)
or go to milwaukee and get cameron, put him in cnter and put nick swisher at the corner OF

Props to the Yanks for opening their wallets this offseason. They must have gotten impatient by not trying to buy their championships so they are reallyconfident that is the way.

Pathetic...there's no way this guy deserves this much money.
I want (some of) my fellow Yankee fans to take off the rose colored glasses for a second...look at the big picture. This overpaying nonsense or giving thatextra year or two for almost every player to come to NY is sad...
I'm excited about next year's team and don't get me wrong...having Teix is definitely an asset, but at what price?

Read the first post, genius...You better than that HTTB...they can go offer matsui to the giants for johnathan sanchez (i hope)
Why in God's name would the Giants do that?Get real...
Nobody is going to trade a potential front-line pitcher in his early 20's for a 35 year old outfielder whose numbers have declined for 4 straightseasons...

What's crazy with this type of spending is, it doesn't work. Next October we will probably be watching two teams play for the World Series who'scombined payroll won't equal what the Yanks are paying CC, AJ, & Tex for the 2009 season.

It just might be. Getting two top flight pitchers changes everything.
