I know, that's why I wrote real players in quotation marks and also wrote please. I've got my fingers crossed though, hell I'll even drive Jigga and Cano to Seattle myself if I have to.

You just don't want to deal with the contract?
J. B A N A N A S:
Cano to Seattle won't happen. That'd be a step backwards for him.
MistaNova:
TBH it's not so much the contract since the Yankees are bound to overpay for someone else anyway and probably will continue to do so for all eternity, and the Yankees are pretty much the richest team in baseball.
However, my biggest concern with the Yankees is that they are a time-bomb. An implosion is just waiting to happen and probably will happen after Jeter retires (hell, it could happen before he retires). I want that implosion to happen soon so that the Yankees will be FORCED to rebuild from within and revive their farmsystem. They have some really nice building blocks in the really low minors (rookie/low a-level) with plenty of room to improve.
If Cano comes back then that gives the team, fans and media "hope" than they can build around him and force the Yankees to continue being competitive/repetitive and I do not want that. I don't wany any more McCanns, Teixieras, Rodriguezes, Wellses or Ichiros. Just let the Yankees dynasty die, go back to being the terrible team that they were in the 80's, revive the farmsystem and take the 2020's and 2030's by storm with the next Yankees dynasty that was built from within.
Basically I want the Yankees to lose now so they can win later. If Cano comes back the Yankees lose now and will also continue to lose later.
Edit: While I was writing this post the Yankees gave me the middle finger and signed Ellsbury.
MistaNova:
Rumors are starting come out that the M's are interested in David Price. Names like Taijuan Walker and Nick Franklin have popped up as part of the possible package going back to Tampa.
Your thoughts on this matter remedy? Do you like the concept of Price (and possibly Cano) being on your M's in 2014 and beyond? Do you think keeping Walker around would be a better option? Do see this trade happening at all?
