Vlad's going to hit a minimum of 35 HR and knock in 120+ runs and he's making $5m!!!!!

Cashman is a f*cking moron.

It would have been a great risk/reward. Low money, so even if he didn't regain his old form you weren't losing much. I mean hell, if he stayed healthy and equaled his numbers from last year it wouldn't have been a bad move. When they decided against bringing Matsui back I don't understand why they didn't take a stronger look at Vlad.

Vlad was my first choice. My initial idea (not that it matters) was to let Matsui and Damon go, sign Vlad to DH and sign or trade for a leftfielder. I figured Vlad not having to play the field could at least be as productive as Matsui last year with the potential for more. But, again, I wasn't against the Nick Johnson move when it happened so I can't knock it too much now.

Last time you said sh*t like that about an opposing player was Jason Bay hitting at least 40 and driving in 140 last year.

Re: Montero. It's too soon to call him a bust. Besides, he's a can't-miss prospect.

Vlad would have been sick in this lineup, and Dunn would be sick in this park. Like most of you I liked the Johnson signing, so I can't say sh*t neither.
