With all the controversy surrounding weather to bring back Johnny Damon or Hideki Matsui, many fans have brought up the idea of signing outfielders Matt Holliday or Jason Bay. To me, when you win a championship, you shouldn't really try to change your team all that much, unless there's a guy like Mark Teixeira or CC Sabathia out there on the market, which this year, there...

The MLB Free Agents Are Irrelevant, Focus On Trades
MLB Trade Rumors released their top 50 Free Agents List. It’s as titillating as a memoir of A.C. Green’s sexcapades. Matt Holliday, the top rated player, can’t hack it in the American League. John Lackey, the top rated pitcher, has missed 15 starts with arm trouble the past two seasons and been [...]
Where Darren Oliver = Matt Holliday Happens

And So the Posturing Begins...
As the Hot Stove begins to heat up the rumor mill will go into action and both sides will use the media to try to raise or lower player values. Today we have news from two teams looking to bring down some prices which in turn could help the Red Sox. First there is the Mets who say that Jason Bay and Matt Holliday will be too expensive for them. The Yankees are also trying this...

CHICAGO -- No team is going to spend or presumably improve via free agency like the Yankees did last winter, when they doled out $423.5 million to three star players alone. Post-parade, and as the GM meetings get underway here on Monday, the only conclusion that can be drawn is that the Yankees spent wisely.
