I've been saying 79-83 since that team was above .500 and I'm sticking to it. I'm not being an a-hole. Dude comes over to the Yankees board and starts being sarcastic, calling us greedy. To me, it looks like jealousy. |

there''s no need to sign every superstar player on the planet when you have a great team already, i'm sure this offseason steinbrenner will sign pedro, matt morris, steve kline, carlos beltran, i mean come on, a team like the yankees do not need to sign all these players!!! |

your different MM, you've been a fan of this team for a long time, for the good and bad, some yankee fans (not all) want every superstar player for every position and steinbrenner is the same way! look i'm not trying to bash the yankees cause i hate wilpon and i think alot of met fans are a-holes too, i guess that's just the way new york fans are!!! |

Justin, what's it to him if the Yankees sign superstars and try to make the 25 man roster the "All-MLB Team"? I think that the goal for every organization should be to improve the team, however they can. That's what Steinbrenner wants to do and if he fails, then its egg on his face. Besides, your boy was being disrespectful and fresh. :annoyed: |

Anyone else notice that Beltran is hitting 260 this year? I can't wait to give him $100 million. He'll just become another untradeable contract for us. But hey, we're collecting those. <_< Fu<k Beltran. We can get a decent glove for alot less. |

He's a career .280 something hitter. He hit .300 last season and its been a big dropoff this year. I don't think he's the best fit for us, but we do need that defense. If there was someone out there who could do .320/5 HR/55 RBI/45 2B/7 3B/.410 OBP/50 SB/120 R and play Gold Glove defense in center, that would be perfect. But ofcourse.... Gotta do the best you can with what is you have or can get. We're gonna overpay for him because his 35 HR this year (on pace) and 40/40 potential is gonna put an additional $50M in his pocket, but right now, he's the best we can do. |

And another thing...Beltran is only 27. We can use the youth. The key is to find a way to rid ourselves of Giambi's contract. |

You're overlooking death. I'm sure George goes to bed at night saying, "God, they've said that you're a Yankees fan...." |
