    :thumbup: You got it. I'm just tired of all the hate for him. He is one of the best players our generation has seen and is playing in the biggest sports market in the world. The press and fans look for any little thing to criticize him for. The man could be out to lunch with his kids and people would criticize him.

    You're right. He is playing in the biggest sports market. He's also paid the highest salary in all of baseball. He also doesn't deliver, is an adulterer, hits on women when's he's benched, comes across as phoney to the media, is hated by most Yankee fans and teammates alike, is a burden on the team and lineup, and will now be on the DL for the 7th time in six years.

    Yay!! We have five more years of this. Please please please retire AJunk!! :lol:

    Hamilton signs with Rangers. Profar becomes their everday SS. Andrus gets traded to the Yankees and moves to 3rd. Arod becomes everyday DH. BOOM.

    I read somewhere earlier that Andrus could be traded if they resign Hamilton, which is why I mention this. It could make sense but who knows if he'd switch positions.

    Problems solved, well, aside from RF and catcher.

    Edit: Read it on Bowdens twitter in which he also said they would swap Andrus for Upton, so, in that case not happening for the Yanks. :lol:

    I still read that the Yankees are pursuing Hamilton. Trade granderson and his pull happy swing, get some prospects and go from there. Why not. He can't perform any worse than granderson did last year and Hamilton when on is twice the player granderson is.

    I don't think Hamilton is a good idea overall for any team for big money, but if he is really moving towards a 4 year deal with the Rangers, then you should really think about beating it.

    I'd keep them both for this year and let Granderson walk.

    $189 though. Every move they are making indicates they are serious about it. If there are a bunch more one year deals, then we'll have a much better idea if it's going to happen.

    "Hamilton, a Christian, has said in the past that God will help him make his free-agent decision, an indication that he might not go to the highest bidder or best team."

    ...and Everyone knows that God and the Yankees usually butt heads. 8-)

    I am pretty certain god is going to tell him to take the most money. Just a hunch.
