    not my money


    sure it is....

    you pay for cable...which pays fox/tbs/yes which pay mlb and or the yanks to carry their games.

    i'm sure you buy products that pay for the commercials during those games or sponsorship at the stadium.

    however direct or indirect it is, we are all paying money to the yanks.
    81 is now off the air

    I don't see this as overpaying. He certainly could have got a guaranteed 6 year deal on the market.

    Baseball is better off today, the manager who was the face of the steroid era is gone. Good riddance!!

  • Considering that CC is 2 years younger and a better pitcher than Cliff Lee, I'd say they got him for a good price. Their deals are very similar after this extension.

  • He admitted yesterday that he needs to lose a little weight but I don't see his weight being an issue unless he gets even bigger than he's been. His stamina doesn't seem to be an issue. He's made 33-35 starts and pitched at least 230 innings every year since 2007. As long as he keeps doing that I don't care if he waddles out to the mound looking like Grimace.

    hopefully that will happen but i don't want selig to just sell to the "lowest bidder" like he did the last time...i want an owner that wants to run a successful baseball franchise and not enhance their ego

    No doubt. They are going to make sure its done right. From what I have read, which isn't everything, it seems like the only way McCourt breaks even is if the team goes for a billion or more and knowing him, there is no way he would agree to it if he wasn't going to at least break even.

    And just look at the vetting process Crane has gone through for the Astros and think about the history of the Dodgers, I think you will be in good hands when all is said and done.

    Ha, true. I do think it will turn out alright, even though you have every right to be pessimistic about it.
