And, for the Angels fans that were hoping they would maybe sign Manny Ramirez to fill the void... From Ken Rosenthal per MLB Trade Rumors...
The Angels are lukewarm on Manny Ramirez, and for now are talking about filling their lineup with internal candidates.
Hello, Juan Rivera...
Good news for other AL West fans. The division looks to be wide open in 2009...A's and Rangers competitive windows may open sooner than we thought...

8/180 is wayy too much for this guy, Yankee fans are going to be all over him.
Talk about over-spending on ALL of their off-season additions, their lineup is still old and their overall defense is

Wait until Teixeira gets off to his annual early season slow start and people in New York are calling for his head...
April and May will have Yankee Nation pulling their hair out in overreaction with this guy... Lucky for him though, he gets hot down the stretch every yearthough, so they'll forgive him quickly...

Why get so stuck on the fact that he's overpaid.
What difference does it really make?

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...
I thought it was 3 but I could be wrong.

It seems as though all the offers where around the same and Tex choose the Yankees over everyone else.
And how if he signed for Boston or Washington for the same money its not over paying but for us it is?

Weren't the other teams involved offering him similar contracts?
The Yankees are the reason players are overpaid? No, the CBA is.

The Yankees should be fine even if he just starts off doing "alright" (he AVERAGES 36 HR like 115 RBI)
1. Damon- LF
2. Jeter- SS
3. A-Rod- 3B
4. Tex- 1B
5. Matsui- DH
6. Nady- RF
7. Posada- C
8. Cano- 2B

What a surprise.
Congrats MLB. What a system you have in place. Might as well give the Yanks Ramirez now too so they can have every 2008 FA
