Re: ***yankees official offseason thread*****
You know if you guys don't want Posada, the Mets will certainly be happy to take him.

Re: ***yankees official offseason thread*****
f rowand, melky is a lot! more valuable than people realize. trading him to 'make room' for somebody else is silly.
also even 3 years for posada is too much IMO., but if any team can pay for one 1.5 valuable years over 3-4 its the NYY. |

Re: ***yankees official offseason thread*****
unfortunately the lacking FA market shows that the yankees will NEED to resign those who just about ready to leave, posada and rivera. and that means they need to get a mgr thay like, and do it FAST. easiest is to reach a 1-yr deal with torre. harder (as it takes more time) is to reach out to girardi. donnie would be interesting, but he's a wildcard. depends if mo and jorge would stay for him.
i'd like a change at the helm, but steinbrenner really made it a touchy situation by mouthing off. next year's mgr has to be decided on by next week. since giambi is gone after next season, you could say posada could become the DH/backup C after two years. I don't mind that, although the yankees seem to be full of future DH's nowadays. who knows, maybe a FT C will become available sometime in the next 18 months, who will provide the bridge until the next prospect graduates to ML. |

Re: ***yankees official offseason thread*****
Why are people so obsessed with catchers offensive outputs? Do you realize Posada is probably the worst in the league at the a huge part of the job -- giving pitchers confidence to throw all of their pitches in big spots.
This aspect magnifies even more in close playoff games, which are dominated by pitchers b.c. top pitchers control games much more than top hitters (i.e. Arod, who mainly feed their sick stats off 5.00+ ERA guys, who unfortunately for Arod appear in the playoffs quite rarely). And its not like the Yankees need Posada's bat / can't afford to bat a scrub hitting catcher in every game. If Pudge were avail and I had Yankees payroll, I'd offer him 35-40mil for 2 yrs, or 20 for 1. One of the very very few spots in free agency where paying a huge yearly salary is actually ok. |
