Varitek has already activated his option, so they are a bit behind on that. He will be backup to the kid from the Indians whose name escapes me at the moment...
After reading some this morning I'm a little more favorable towards Johnny, but he would still be part time, we would need Hairston or someone from the minors...
Here is a link to a lengthy but really good article. I know most of you like the aritcle, but this link is the best I could do. I highly reccommend this...
I just posted an article from the NYDN that makes this kind of speculation a moot point. It details how weak this year's FA class is and how strong the one is...
New York Yankees GM Brian Cashman begins planning for 2010, could eye Angels' John Lackey BY Mark Feinsand <http://www.nydailynews.com/authors/Mark%20Feinsand>...
Yankees' Hideki Matsui, Johnny Damon are free agents, but aren't gone just yet by Mark Feinsand <http://www.nydailynews.com/authors/Mark%20Feinsand> daily news...
I know he played 3rd but I can't remember his arm. He hasn't played much outfield in recent yr's. Probably because they neeeded him at 3rd. ... From: Scott...
Don't forget Gaudin. I think he has some real possibilities as 4th or 5th man. Light travels faster than sound. That is why some people appear bright until you...

I don't think anyone is trading Cano. As for Johhny in LF, I don't think Figgins is really the answer, it was just a thread that was developing in the rumor...

I'm speaking strictly to his arm, nothing else. He played 3rd base all season, probably one of the most demanding throwing positions on the field along with...
That's a good idea for Hughes. It also builds up his pitch count. Like Joba this yr, he couldn't do a full yr as a starter next yr anyway. ... From: Sara...
I also like the idea of Hughes coming out of the pen for long relief and maybe work his way back to starting after some confidence building. ... -- Imagine...
I agree, Sara. And, I'd try to re-sign Matsui for another year. H e had a monster yr as DH.  I hope Andy and the Yanks agree to another yr, too. He won...
You know Red, I have been saying for 2 seasons that we need someone in LF with a better arm...but now all of a sudden, I want Johnny to stay. I don't know why....
I'm about 5 emails behind you guys on Figgins but had one question...How's his arm? Because it's hard to beat Johnny offensively and on the basepaths (I...
Scott, You're right on both broadcasters. Joe Morgan's 30+ years of defending his precious Reds as one of the best of all time is boring, misleading and...
McCarver is a problem and so is Joe Morgan. I wonder if it is because they were players and played against the Yankees for all those years? I agree that Andy...
Scott, Yeah, I'd take Andy in a heartbeart over Randy. I know Andy's family means a whole lot to him and missing his son's games is a tough one for him. I am...
I will be forwardng this email every day now since even if it doesn't directly mention the Yankees the players may or may not be involved with the team....
I agree on letting Damon go. And I think the reason they clicked, was that it simply got Derek out of the 2 hole. He hits into too many DPs from there. I...
Scott, I agree 100%, plus during the playoffs he did not seem to have his head in the game at crucial times. I also hate the way he spells his name, for what...
then again, I looked at his career line at Yahoo Sports. Impressive. http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/players/6986 Picking up a major league ready/able player for...
There seems to be one thread running through a lot of the articles I'm reading, and it has the Yankees picking up Figgins and putting him in LF. Surely we have...
