    interesting article in the times about the funding for the new stadium, not a surprise hearing some of the comments from randy levine though:

    Obvioulsy not at all realistic but can you imagine if the Yanks landed both Sabathia and Peavy? Not impossible but not at all probable. Would be sick though.

    Also rumors of Yanks trading Matsui to Seattle for the Rowland pitcher then using him as part of a package for Holiday.

    IF in a crazy world all of the above happened:
    2009 Yanks would have added: CC, Peavy, & Holiday
    Would lose: Matsui, Cano?, Melky or Austin Jackson and def....Hughes or Kennedy maybe both.

    maybe you wont have to wait another 20 years for your next one.

    i want either Peavy or CC...although cc was being treated like a rented mule that the end of last season, that has to take some toll on his body. and dont even tell me he plans to pitch in the WBC

    The Yankees will name Mick Kelleher as their new first base coach. Tony Pena will be the bench coach. And Rob Thompson will move to third.

    I hope they don't trade Hughes. I don't think Peavy will come here. It looks like the Cubs are high on the list.

    Nick Swisher to the Yankees, for jeff Marquez. Don't love him, but he'll add flexibilty. Can play 1st and CF

    i don't have a problem with the move. assuming he's the understudy to a bigger named first baseman, he's a better option than wilson betemit and plus he can play the outfield.

    wilson betemit was in the deal, so essentially this a backup first baseman swap with the Yankees getting someone who also plays the outfield.

    not a bad trade,....and as mentioned he can play any outfield spot pending what happens there,...abreu etc. If no other 1b is brought in I see swisher being the main guy there.

    also.....word is yanks plan to send sabathia quite the offer tomorrow
