    will also be nice if the phils have a cleanup hitter instead of a black hole in the WS if they get back.

    I can take them paying for past performance with him. I think he will do better than $45. The yankees wont let that contract stop them from making other moves though.

    Got that right.

    Steinbrenners going to be in the building on Monday for the monument. Should be fun. I like it when they show up.

    Edit: Fucked up the quoting on this one.

    I think the Phils will do the same thing with J-Roll after 2011, although he needs to step up his off-season conditioning. Some guys, you just can't see playing for anybody else, right Yanks fans?

    Yes, Burnett miraculously pitched one good game in the Series last year. Would you bet on it happening again? He also got lit up like a Christmas tree with a chance to clinch it. And he's worse this year.

    If (big if) Pettite doesn't come back strong, I don't think the Yankees make it past the Division Series, as much as I want revenge for '09.

    I am in no way nervous about the Twins or Rangers (assuming Hamilton is as banged up as he seems to be)

    yeah, the rollins contract situation scares the hell out of me. no heir apparent in the farm system, so rollins pretty much has them by the balls.

    I think hamels should be the top priority this offseason.

    whoops, sorry...wrong thread

    Overpaying for Rollins would be a horrible idea as of right now. Granderson is having a better year than him.
