Life sucks.
'Oh I can't see him, I can't see God', YA'LL CAN'T SEE FUCKIN' AIR NEITHER!
Prove to me the wind. Show me the wind man. I want proof of that shit. Cuz I don't see it.
if they get him... who else will they have in the rotation?I can't remember as of right now
This is the reason why there needs to be a salary cap in baseball. Who else could offer that much money aside from maybe the Mets, BoSox, or Angels? I suppose it didn't really make much a difference last year seeing as the Yankees were in dead last for a while, but still, it's the principles.
i dont think the yankees would want to part with joba...plus, besides joba and hughes, who do they really have, in terms of prospects?

I root for the Twins. I know all about small payrolls that win games. But the fact of the matter is, all of this money floating around is significantly affecting the free agent market. Players see what Sabathia and Santana got and want that too. It skews the market. So only NY, Boston, and LA get big name players and the rest of the teams have to rely on the minor league system? That's bullshit. The Yankees struggled more or less because of all the superstar personalities on the team who think they are entitled. The fact that they don't win the World Series year after year is proof those players don't deserve the money they are getting.
