    Who the hell knows how true it is, but there is a report out there that the Yanks have the best chance to land Ubaldo if they want to.

    If not for the rain delay, who knows if CC would've pitched differently, but it was still one hell of a performance. Glad I got to see it in person.

    This is just me, but I don't think Ubaldo is worth it.

    I agree. It seems like pitchers come to NY and you never know what you're going to get.. even with success its usually only a few years. I hope they keep Montero, as I'd like to see some career Yankees coming up like B.Williams, Posada, Jeter, etc..

    I hear you, and I am a huge fan of both Montero and Banuelos. The market for pitching is just bare over the next year plus. It's a tough decision and I want to see them build home grown players as well, with their payroll they need it, I just don't know if the pitching is good enough to win it all. Next year is just going to get worse with even less on the market. At some point Colon's arm is going to fall off and Garcia is going stop fooling people.

    I know Martin is just a stop gap until Montero gets up, but how awesome has he been this year to watch? It's great to have a good defensive catcher behind the plate. He definitely needs to bring his average up, but he has been huge for the team this year.

    I think it all comes down to if the Yankees see Montero as a catcher. If they do, hold on to him, if they don't trade him.

    The fact the Ubaldo is under team control past this year has to make the Yankees think about it, especially when you look at the free agent class.

    Ubaldo is not currently an ace (he could very well be some day) but the Yankees don't need an ace. He is only 27 with great stuff and would be awesome behind CC.

    Edit: And I am not saying I do it, NO shot I do it for what they are currently asking, it's just a great fit.

    :thumbup:

    Cliffy, you should be a Yankee commentator.
    Unfortunately I dont get to see too many televised games, so I dont see what Martin does behind the plate.

    And Newch, yeah I agree Cano should stay in pinstripes, along with Gardner, for the longhaul!

    wow CC is the man.
    I really liked the lineup while Arod is out...Gardner, Jeter, CG, Tex, Cano
    PJ - 36
    EV - 5

    My McCready bobblehead has been having a tough time watching the last few games, he's shaking his head horizontally!

    He wants an AB

    They should consider trading Felix, I would do a sweet deal for him if I was cash. Seattle would be better off

    The prospects the Yanks could offer aren't that far away from contributing.... They need more than Felix, and Pineda. I don't see them competing in that division with Texas being set up nicely, and LAA being competitive

    I would give up the farm for Felix. Montero, Banuelos, Betances, Nova and whoever the hell else they want.

    Hell ya! Mariners GM seems like a moron. I'd much rather have taken a package for cliff lee involving Montero, than Justin Smoak IMO. I think Montero is gonna be a better player. Lee, also IMO would have signed in NY if he had played here the 2nd half of last year. But that's just spilt milk

    Do they really think they can compete with the big market teams once this monster Aka king Felix hits his unrestricted free agent status. I don't think so

    It would be win/win for both clubs

    Saw that loss coming a mile away. Didn't see or hear any of the game. Been in meetings all day.

    This Danny Knobler guy from CBS is saying the Yanks have the best chance to land Ubaldo.

    Yankees and Reds have been the most active. Tough decision, not getting to their asking price yet.
