CC to the Yanks. I like CC, Wang, Joba at top of rotation. Would love Texiera, but don’t see them spending another $150 on him. Keep Cano, plug in Hughes and a Sheets and lets roll…..
December 10th, 2008 at 8:28 am
well, i’m glad the yankees went out and got a pitcher that’s proven himself in the post season.
/sarcasm
December 10th, 2008 at 8:29 am
Fatty – I dislike Wang. He’s worthless on the road. I think he’s a No. 3 starter. And no, i dont judge him by his gaudy win totals.
December 10th, 2008 at 8:33 am
Hey, Wang won 19 back to back years and that’s playin in the AL East. If he’s the Yanks #3 starter ya can’t really go wrong there. Worthless is a little strong, not many pitchers are more successful on the road who aren’t overpowering?
December 10th, 2008 at 8:39 am
fine, worthless is too harsh, but i dont think of wang as a big-game pitcher. Still need another guy behind CC…dont know about Burnett. are they in the mix for Lowe?
December 10th, 2008 at 8:41 am
if the yankees sign burnett and/or lowe, do they trade hughes and kennedy?
or plan to let wang walk when he’s eligible for FA?

Gotta say, at one point or another it seems that Heyman mentions every possible scenario. Don’t want Burnett. Take Sheets for 2 years, that’s not too risky. If they trade Cano I’ll puke. Would be so foolish. Work on bench.
December 10th, 2008 at 8:45 am
I don’t think this will be good. What are his numbers against Boston? He’ll get lit up in his first Fenway start.
December 10th, 2008 at 8:45 am
more BS PC, starring Rudolph the Red-Nosed reindeer …
Idiot woman.

all coming together clown, all coming together….

Sparty’s a fraud!

I can’t stand Webber and Gary Payton on NBA TV
December 10th, 2008 at 8:52 am
Clown – fact … never had a “HD” or flatscreen TV until this summer. yup, really. frugality wins the race …
i can’t believe no comments on the shark video. i love that stuff!
December 10th, 2008 at 8:52 am
Agreed. Neither can speak English and they’re almost always clowning on each other. It’s like they’re trying to be Charles but they lack both the intelligence and charm to do so. Instead they act like a bunch of overgrown kids.
December 10th, 2008 at 8:52 am
Is this some kind of reference to homosexual positions?
December 10th, 2008 at 8:52 am
@ TheSportsHernia : Boston is no longer the only player in AL East, but good question. His numbers against the Al East as a whole are fantastic.
December 10th, 2008 at 8:52 am
Did anyone laugh as hard as Gary Payton?
December 10th, 2008 at 8:53 am
That’s good to hear, looking up his numbers now.
December 10th, 2008 at 8:54 am
thats racist.
December 10th, 2008 at 8:56 am
You are.
December 10th, 2008 at 8:57 am
Exactly, it just doesn’t work, comes off forced.

exactly. well said

Give me Dr. Jack Ramsey. He speaks the Queen’s English.
December 10th, 2008 at 8:59 am
I don’t get it.

i can deal with webber, but payton does seem to be forcing the issue
December 10th, 2008 at 9:02 am
gary payton > emmitt smith
December 10th, 2008 at 9:08 am
whatever happened to Tom Tolbert? did he take a local job with a team? He was an up and comer.
December 10th, 2008 at 9:11 am
This Brent Barry ticket experiment is way cool
very nice gesture. I read the one where he gave tickets to a guy who missed out on getting T Mac autograph. T Mac just walked right by him and Berry saw that and came out the bus and gave him tickets.
December 10th, 2008 at 9:16 am
Sparty even though you are a fraud I agree with you on Hef being racist and gary payton > emmitt smith. C Web sucks. Shark Video is Crazy. Yankees still suck. HDTV is awesome and whats a J.Lo picture without a ass shot.
/That is all
