MessageTampa is going to be the Colorado rockies of two years ago. I venture to say you will not even see them in the playoffs for another 3 seasons. too hard to compete in the American league, Yankees Red sox will always compete to win the division or wild card. The Yankees have won the division for the last 12 years and the red sox have been wild card winners too many times. I think they that Tampa has a good young team but they will never hold on to all of the talent due to teams like my Yankees and their huge payroll. Personally I believe Cashman is one of the smartest gm's as he is just a pawn for the Stienbrenners who actually run the team. He has kept his job and got paid huge bucks for doing it. Anyways, Like I said before love 'em or hat'em You cant argue with greatness and the stats don't lie. I want to deal this off season so lets get the offers flowing!!! smilie

Messageboy tim, as long as we don't talk ulb we can agree on something! i'm with you.. yankees are ridiculous. unfortunately, the mets, sox, and cubs are hardly any better. its a bit sad really.. although at least the yankees are learning to throw money at better players. friggin mariners are an even worse joke. did they seriously resign johjima to 3 more years? ugh.

Early predictions for next year: Price strikes out better than a batter an inning in spring... Tim wets himself.. $18 bid.

CC wins 34 games!

MessageMaybe so, and thats exactly why they won all those years, they drafted and developed good young talent that actually cared about the organization. Now they have Chamberlain who is legit, Hughes is an unknown, and Kennedy and Cabrera are average players at best, nowhere near the same league of talent of the players you mentioned. When you spend almost six times the amount on payroll than the team that actually won your division that makes you one of the WORST run teams in present day. Cashman is a horrible GM, he's completely lost his magical touch. Its a good thing the Yanks did add some prime talent though because Tampa hasn't even come close to hitting its prime yet.

MessageI believe they did sink a fraction into their own team and did win. I seem to remember a few players and a few championships they did win in 98,99 and 00. Names like Jeter, Posada, Pettite, Williams and Rivera were all home grown talent. The Yankes will contend and it is awesome that they keep their team competitive. Check the records, they have not traded away any homegrown talent in the last few years anyway. Hughes, Kennedy, Cabrera and Chamberlain all are Yankees. Does not matter what you have to say, like em or hate em, your choice, you cannot argue they are the best professional sports team in history and that is a fact, I have 26 good reasons if you need them. Tim, you are a joke at best anyway. smilie

MessageI would bet they still won't win the W.S. next year. Sink a fraction of that money into actually developing your own talent and you might contend. Burnett will get crippled again, and CC just had his career season. The Brewers abused that arm, and now hes gotta pitch under extreme pressure in the AL with an old decrepid defense backing him up. The outfield is pretty garbage, and Jeter and Posada are the two most overpaid players in baseball. It's actually kind of laughable how a team can spend that much money and still suck.

MessageThe Yankees are killing baseball... $2500 bucks for a seat may work in New York but somewhere along the line I think I have to pay an extra buck or two for a seat at safeco cuz the Yankees keep jacking up the price of free agents because they can afford to pay anything

MessageYes i have a computer with a web cam, it would only reqire jeff to get one. I thing they are like 30 bucks if he has to buy one and it plugs into his computer. Leary has both wireless and landline connections and they are fast enough. I have skyped from home and it is in real time with only maybe a half second lag, surely not enough to make a difference in a bidding war. No Don, I am not interested in CC but I am shopping Howard and Ellsbury if anyone is interested.
