    ARod says he'll be a Yankee next year. I believe he has final say. Does he have a buy out in his contract? Or you could play him in the regular season, then leave him off the playoff roster.

    He can say what he wants in October. Let's wait and see what he says in December. :lol: And no, there's no buyout and he has a full trade clasue.

    And while A-Rod blamed two weeks of postseason futility at the plate, saying it “sucked the energy out of us," another player privately made a far more indicting observation: that the ballclub was affected by the hostility from the fans at Yankee Stadium last weekend.

    “I really think the booing spooked a lot of guys," the player said. “A lot of guys hadn’t been booed before, and they couldn’t believe how nasty it got in the stands."

    Obviously Nick Swisher admitted to being sensitive to such treatment after Game 2, but the player said Swisher was far from alone in his reaction.

    “A lot of guys were talking about it in the clubhouse," he said. “I was surprised by how much it bothered them. I really don’t think they ever recovered."

    Time to clean some house get rid of pansies like arod, swisher and granderson and reload for 28 next year.

    I hate hate hate hate hate the strikeouts from Granderson, but I don't know how anyone couldn't like him as a person. Seems like one of the best dudes in all of baseball.

    Grandy is a great guy but his option went from 13 to 15 next year and no chance yankees extend him after that so I would pass on picking it up. You could easily slide Gardner to center and use that money on someone else. If we resign Kuroda and Andy for one more year our staff is set along with Pineda coming back.

    Montero for a young offensive option wouldhave been nice to have this season and in the future.

    Youkilis

    looks like Chisox will decline his $13mil option and buy him out...could be a possibility if AROD moved.

    Like I said. First order of business is Kuroda and Pettitte. Hopefully Pineda comes back healthy but that is a huge if.

    Swisher and Soriano both seem to be gone. Will suck not having Soriano back there but they really don't need him for the 8th and that $13 million will look very nice somewhere else. They are definitely going to have some money to play with.

    That said, there isn't much out there. The Arod talk is especially funny since there is no one to replace him. Nunez? Yeah, right. Chris Johnson? Spare me.

    I know the Yankees would be interested in Cody Ross and he isn't my favorite player, but I am sure it is something to look at. Ichiro would be a nice player to have, but I also don't know how I feel about a full 162 games. I don't think the Yanks will get a full year of what they got since the deadline

    Chase Headley or Justin Upton? Yes fucking please. Not gonna happen though. Too many minor league injuries.

    To me, Pettitte and Kuroda are the first orders of business and both are probably going to want to take their time.

    Then on to replace Swisher. I am at a loss on this one. Bourn is going to get too much money and too many years, but would look really nice in that outfield in the short term. Hamilton is not an option. I wonder if they would look at Torii Hunter for a stop gap until the kids are ready. I also really like Choo but wonder if he can stay healthy and wonder what it would take to get him. I doubt they would look at the likes of Victorino or BJ Upton.

    It's wild that Hunter just had probably the best year of his career. Scares me that it was a contract year for him, but if he could reproduce that for a year or two....sheeeeeet. Gigantic if though at his age.

    Wouldn't Montero be the young offensive option? :?

    I would be very very surprised if they let him walk now but who knows. They are going to have some money with Soriano and Swisher so unless they have really big plans, and it doesn't seem like there is anyone out there to fit big plans (NO NO NO NO NO to Hamilton). then he is probably the best bet.

    I think Pineda will be huge for us, if we resign Andy and Kuroda we should try to trade Hughes or nova for a bat. I would let Martin go and start working in the young catchers.
