[Hack Wilson - real]

the Tanaka Chainsaw is a legendary weapon...how many will be slaughtered this year? 

[Chamillitary Click]

Over five.

Over five.

i hope Pedroia is one

I like him, but I have a feeling he's gonna get turd tapped this year.  The Yanks infield defense is gonna be real bad with jeter, nunez and roberts playing:(

he'll have a speedy ass outfield though.

I just hope ellsbury stays healthy.  He is a monster when healthy.  Very underrated.

I think they're going to start Kelly Johnson at third.

I don't know, man. Maybe I'm just homering right now...but I like this team. I'm pumped for the season.

Hes going to platoon.  We have either a good hitting infield, or a good fielding infield, just not at the same time lol.

I had no idea that Tanaka was going to go all Carl Mays on motherfuckers.
Normally I'd say 3 but since I'm biased and have Japanese blood in me (somewhere), I'll go with over 5.

The Yankees are still awful though.

Actually the Yankees infield defense could be good IF the Yankees decide to give Brendan Ryan more playing time at short. Which, of course, they won't since Jeter will refuse to move/can't be moved because of the "this is his last season" bullshit.
And don't worry about Roberts fucking shit up defensively. He'll be on the DL in 3, 2, 1...

Brendan Ryan is an absolute joy to watch in the field. But from the offensive end, you'll be lucky to get a .200 BA out of him. Plus, he's way over-emotional and always gets down on himself, so I can only imagine how out of it he'd be with the New York Fans/media on his ass compared to Seattle. A lineup like yours can probably handle an incredibly shitty hitter to a larger extent than the Mariners could last year, but still.

I am going to laugh if this fool ends up busting like Daisuke and Kei Igawa.

I don't know how long you'll be laughing for though. This is the type of contract Magic will eat for us if this guy is a 13-10 guy with a 3.73 ERA lol.

lmfao good point. But when I say bust, I mean Daisuke-style, 5 ERA career average bust. Not even crazy ass Dodgers would take that contract. I'm aware that we took Josh Beckett, but that was a package deal lol. Plus we assumed we could revive his career like we did everyone else.

[Chamillitary Click]

lol, Daisuke-style would depress me.

Push me suicidal if Ellsbury, Tex, Beltran, Roberts, Jeter hit the DL & if Pineda doesn't throw at least four inning.
