December 2, 200322 yr It appears the Yankees team is shaping up to be this: C Jorge Posada 1b Nick Johnson 2b Alfonso Soriano SS Derek Jeter 3b Aaron Boone RF Gary Sheffield CF Hideki Matsui LF Bernie Williams DH Jason Giambi back up catcher John Flaherty IF Enrique Wilson OF Karim Garcia UT??? 1B/3B ??? PR ??? St Mike Mussina St Jose Contreras St Andy Pettitte St Jon Lieber St Jeff Weaver BP Paul Quantrill BP Flash Gordon BP Steve Karsay BP Chris Hammond BP Felix Heredia BP Mariano Rivera However, I believe the Yankees will spend more money than the Republican party on upperclass tax cuts on another big starter, like Kevin Brown or Vazquez (via trade) or Colon via FA. I doubt the Yanks will go with a 12 man pen all season with the arms they got, either Weaver, Lieber, or Chris Hammond are going to be traded. :banghead Nevertheless, this team again is quite a contender.
December 2, 200322 yr As much as I hate the Yanks, I want them to sign Colon so my Twins don't have to deal with him anymore in Chicago. But this should be the best season of watching the Yanks and Red Sox load up on eachother in the offseason.
December 2, 200322 yr Author There's something not fun about either of the two: 1. The entire all star team is made of of the Yankees or Red Sox :mischief2 2. The Yanks spend so much money they should be fielding an all-star team, but everyone underperforms. :confused I heard Colon's elbow is the only thing worse than his weight, and he wants more than 12 million a year. If his elbow checks out, I would want him over Pettitte or any trade like the supposed Brown trade, but I am not happy with the route the yanks have taken. We should of signed Kelvim Escobar and Pat Hentgen for much less. The Indians are a year away from dominating the central anually again. Pray for your twinkies. Oh well.
December 3, 200322 yr Author Sabathia is a great pitcher, I think the Indians are going to contend again (sadly they rebuilt when they were already contending for some reason.) What fun is it being a yankee fan? My dad's from the bronx, I have no choice. I cannot become a fan of a different team because they win or lose too much- heck I cheer for the Mets.
