Re: ***yankees official offseason thread*****
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] Why would you go out and spend that much money on Jones when you have a cheap acceptable replacement in Melky. I know teams are going to overcompensate their offers down because of how bad his last year was, but still, how many more wins are you going to get out of jones? Is jones' defense that much better than melky's? That is the only way I can see this making sense. [/ QUOTE ] well melky's deal is really bad... and if andrew was willing to sign a one year deal, that would mean he'd be willing to get in shape for the season, and be really good at defense why does melky's D get a pass.. because he's young and on the yankees? [/ QUOTE ] Is Jones that much of a defensive upgrade? His bat wasn't better last year? If you even assume Plus/Minus is the average for both of these guys (LOL) then you're only paying what 4 mil per win in improvement, maybe more in a one year deal? I wonder if that black hole at 1B could use that money.

Not from a contractual point, but a "I am better at baseball" point of view.

Re: ***yankees official offseason thread*****
I asked my Balls, "what is the origin of this Yankees Suck?"
My balls said, "All things are known by us, but we teach only Yankees Suck and the liberation from Yankees Suck, and we teach only what is necessary for the penetration of this truth." They continued, "How much hair is on this entire body", I said, "much my Lords". They said, "and how much hair is on the Balls?" I said, "very few my Lords". "Just so! What we know is to be likened to the hairs on this body, but what is needed for liberation is like the knowledge of the hairs on these very Balls" And with this, I rejoiced at the wisdom of the Great Ones.
