Jackson was a basketball player who became a baseball player. So he had to learn the game. He has progressed nicely and was only 22 this year. He was rookie of...
Clemons would have been a good mentor but he's not coaching anywhere until he comes clean about this steriod stuff. Just admit it, Roger, and move on. Arod did...
I wouldn't say there's a fascination with Gardner. This was his first full year for the most part in NY. Melky was fortunate to come up at a younger age so...
Being out here in the LA area, I heard a lot about Edwin Jackson when he was in the Dodger organization. He was always touted as the next big thing, but the...
I think people like the fact that he's got speed and he's not afraid to get his uniform dirty (I often see him referred to as "gritty"). Personally, I prefer...
... But your middle-relievers were all young guys, and our cheap home-grown center-fielder was the definition of clutch this year. ... Good! All the better if...

... Yeah, last year was the nadir for him. But he learned from it, and produced this year. ... They're babies (which I say from the perspective of a...

... As much as I loved Mickey, I'd put Mo ahead of him on the list. In fact, I'd put Mo 2nd, followed by The Mick, then Gehrig, then Dimaggio (whom I never saw...

Who really wants Jackson? He wasn't very good in Tampa. He's had 1 good year in Detroit. Granderson intrigues me, but I don't want Jackson. I also agree...
I agree on number 1 as well. Resign Damon keep Melky & Gardner. Personally I'd keep the offense & position players pretty much as the 2009 team and spend on ...
I wouldn't trade Ajax unless it's in a package for someone like Felix Hernandez. Otherwise, why give up on someone like him so quickly. If Gardner was ready to...
I don't know about "low cost" talent getting us #27. The core team (Jeter, A-Rod, Tex, CC, AJ, Mo, Posada, Damon, Matsui) are quite the opposite of that. As...
I agree that it will depend on the players needed to make this trade. I don't see the Yanks giving up on Melky now that he finally seems to have turned the...
... Mo a runner-up? I'd put Mo in #3 -- without him, forget the last four WS championships. He has been far more influential than Mattingly or Reggie....

... I hope Cashman is too smart to make this trade. Our high-end, low-cost talent helped bring a 27th World Championship home to the Bronx. They want Melky?...

now is for repeating and if it takes signing Lackey so be it when Yankees repeated in was it 98,99,2000, Didnt they add starting pitching in say a Clemons or...
Joel Sherman speculates that the Yankees would have to part with Austin Jackson, Ian Kennedy, and Zach McAllister to get Granderson. However, he notes that...
This is a minor league deal. Betemit hit .200 in 20 games with the White Sox last year. I guess we know who got the better end of the Betemit for Swisher...
Granderson and Jackson would be 2 great acquisitions. But what would it take? A lot. I don't think Cashman wants to give up a lot of young talent which is what...
1. Babe Ruth-always the rock the Yanks were built on-nuff said! 2. Joe DiMaggio-56 game hitting streak, 3 AL MVPs, 9x WS champion! 3. Mickey Mantle-7 World...
