nothing can confirm the above article since the guy who tweeted about it has un named sources, but it is intersting since it is the same guy that last summer a month before melky was suspended reported he would eventually be suspended.

He is now saying cano, arod, and grandy (as well as braun) will get 50 games for PEDS.

hopefully he is full of it and this is not true. I like Grandy too much as a person to think he may be cheating.

I believe it when the official announcement comes from MLB.

More Good News!!! Can Pat Kelly still play? how about Alvaro Espinosa?

It appears Brennan Boesch didn't have to wait too long to find a new home.

The former Detroit Tigers outfielder agreed to a major-league contract with the New York Yankees at $1.5 million plus incentives, according to CBS Sports' Jon Heyman.


Good pickup

Bathgate66

Youkilis, Mesa each blast 3rd homer of spring in 11-9 win over Pirates.

JonnyPistachio

jeter may not be ready opening day? Oh boy, this lineup should be interesting.

Bathgate66

yeah thats too bad about Jeter

Derek Jeter will not play in anymore big league Spring Training games in case he needs to start the season on the disabled list.

Smart move best case scenario is he only misses a few games.

I hate cliches but it is what it is. What you have seen the Yankees miss the playoffs once in your time as a Yankees fan?

I think they will be fine if they can tread water for a month or two. I need to see Toronto win before I believe they can, Boston sucks, Baltimore needs to prove they weren't a fluke and Tampa is good but their offense as always is suspect. Tread water, get people healty and see what happens. I think tex may miss more time than we are expecting.

Would be sweet if the yanks could pull a headley trade. Not gonna happen but I can dream

Word. Yankees singed wang. Would be sweet to see him back in pinstripes on the mound

I hope we get the old, dominant Wang back from 2006 and 2007. He was a beast until that game in Houston in 2008.

Yep, only once in 2008 since I started watching in '96. It felt weird. My dad said I'm lucky I wasn't around back when he was growing up and for the '80s teams.

Youkilis homers twice and drives in 4, Yankees defeat Rays 7-6 on Mustelier’s walk-off blast.

Buster Olney ‏@Buster_ESPN 17m Sources say the Yankees' share of the Vernon Wells contract will be about $13 million over the last two years of his deal.

No idea what Cashman is doing here, this is a terrible move.

This is the perfect year to give young guys a chance.

Instead they overpay for old retreads

I've been saying to go with the young guys. Will be an interesting year.

Watching MLB network this mornign and i didn't realise that their is an insurance policy for players in the WBC and the yankees may get about 6 mil this year from Tex being hurt. Meaning what they pay vernon wells this year will be minimal if you count in that 6 mil.

I still don't like the signing. I still think they should have gone with who they had, but i'm pretty sure that played into their decision process.

Bronx Bombers

The dumpster diving continues, Yankees just signed overbay to a minor league deal :fp:

Cliffy6745

UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I cannot begin to tell you how repulsed I am. God guy yada yada yada, Vernon Wells is one of the worst players in baseball and I hate him

The New York Yankees have Kevin Youkilis and Vernon Wells. Gross.

We root for laundry.

Cliffy6745

Good thing the Yankees didn't get Cliff Lee because of David Adams

Incredible.
