Found February 09, 2009 on The Chuck Knoblog:
With Pettitte finally signing the roster seems pretty much set. We`ve got our 5 man rotation and our starting lineup. I`m betting on both Nady and Swisher staying put now so we have the bench set pretty well to. So what's left? Not much. The Yanks have filled their budget and snuck past the 190 ...

Rosenthal

Ken Rosenthal has a few interesting notes today.First of all, the Yanks are not interested in Juan Cruz and I don't blame them. He`s a tempting target but I`m unwilling to decimate the 2009 draft anymore. Supposedly, its a very deep draft and if the Yanks can go over-slot then they can still get ...

Do The Kyle Lohse!

Last off season, despite a free weak free agent class, SP Kyle Lohse was unable to nab a long term contract.

Gammons Gives Beltran His Props

Peter Gammons of ESPN, had an interesting article on defense, and how it may be one of the reasons why Manny Ramirez, Adam Dunn and Bobby Abreu are making teams think twice about them. In his article he praises Carlos Beltran. Nowhere is it more evident than in center field. Most of the clubs that discussed the subject had Minnesota's Carlos Gomez rated the best defensive center...

Still waiting for that consolation prize.

  Who's it gonna be? Yeah, you know. Okay, Jimbo, now that it's perfectly clear that Adam Dunn doesn't want to come to Washington, and your cheapskate bosses don't want to overpay for Manny Ramirez for a season or two for some reason, and even  Stan's favorite bargain basement option ...
