    Good guy too. If he could cut out the K's, he'd be a lot more fun to watch.

    I was disappointed to see him leave Detroit...because he is such a good guy...but the trade has really paid off this year for Detroit and Austin Jackson has turned into a heck of a CF.

    No doubt, I don't think any of the three teams in that trade will complain much.

    I remember this post season when the Yankees were coming to bat and the graphic came up on the screen. It had batting average, home runs, rbis, stolen bases and if he's a nice guy or not. :lol:

    Alright, and I don't completely disagree. I am sure they'll at least look into it. I could live with Gardner, Ichiro and Upton.

    Okay....not sure what your point is. I don't want them to keep him because he is a good guy but it helps when you are cheering on players who are good people and use their position/celebrity to help out.

    Not often all 3 teams are happy with a trade.

    Personally I think the Yankees need to stay away from the trade market. Develop your players and sign free agents. Trades don't seem to be Mr. Cashman's specialty.

    Definitely not. Read the Tigers were bringing up low level minor leaguers from Florida to play in games against the Tigers this weekend to keep them fresh. Thought that was cool.

    Well he was second in the AL in home runs and lead your team...he has always had strike out numbers and not a great hitter for average.

    If he could be like 2011 every year, he would be awesome.

    According to Cashman he doesn't expect Pineda to be back before the 2nd half of next season. :fp: :lol:

    Cashman on wfan. Not saying much of anything. Alright talked about Arod. Nothing special at all.
