haven't followed this season of MLB lol, like..at all - i only caught a few games here and there and all the games were the yankees games - 2 being the last subway series.

Yanks giving away 4 for 2 - wonder what they pay each player - they are probably getting a very good deal.

[jakncoke]

I'm kinda not as mad at the Pirates right now, baseballamerica did a top 10 minors for each club and as of Jan 7th 08'...Tebata was the Yankees 3rd best prospect and Ohlendorf was there 8th. I know Pirates are going to get me mad soon though, Jason Bay is nearly 30 and eating up a big chunk of salary, that means 1 thing in the Pirates mind...trade time and that will make me a sad person.

lol heh..don't worry about it, yankees probably won't get anywhere any way, they get to play offs alright, then they screw up no matter what hot player they have on their team - not as much of a screw up as the mets though lol (gotta bring up the other NYC Team)

I have to worry about though Nady was awesome and Bay is awesome and there a cornerstone of our team, I have to worry about these things because the Pirates are about to tie the all time record for most seasons in a row finishing below .500
