his power has been declining substantially in recent years and he's never been a big OBP guy. not a wise investment.

But if Giambi is on the team, he can teach him how to 'roid up, get caught, and still play!

^ does not compute.

He only has two years left on his deal.
He won't cost us [censored] to get.

Tejada will cost nada, is much better than betemit and will prevent us from doing something stupid like trading way too much for MCab.

Where does it say they want Tabata? They want ML players like Farnsworth.

Farnsworth plus either a close to ML ready pitcher or position player probably get us Tejada. Jose is years from being ML ready

yeah i'm gonna go ahead and disagree with you there.

the yankees would have to give up more than this for miguel tejada, and that .442 slugging percentage last year doesn't thrill me. as a third baseman tejada isn't looking all that great.

Well obviously there isn't going to be a straight up trade between Farnsworth and Tejada. But he thinks NY is going to trade Tabata for Tejada and no one is saying that anywhere. The artical mentioned Farnsworth, but the O's want MLB caliber players, now.

Anyone think RHP Scott Linebrink would be a good fit for the Yanks to fill a bullpen hole?

I don't like Linebrink for the deal he'll likely get. The dip in k-rate makes for too much risk on a long term deal. The teams that are good at managing their roster will take one year flyers on Benitez/Foulke/Gagne/Percival/Wood or sign Codero/Dotel/Rivera.
