10 Reasons the Yankees passed on Hiroyuki Nakajima

1. With iron men Jeet and A-Rod, who needs backup?

2. He wanted more than $1 million per year? Who can afford that kind of money!

3. Cool, backhanded way to insult Kei Igawa.

4. Didn't have to fear Redsocks getting him.

5. Still blaming selves for Irabu's suicide.

6. Saving money for big, projected free agent class of 2015.

7. Infielder Eduardo Nunez, over winter, said to be learning to throw.

8. Once we signed Hideki Okajima, was waaaay too confusing.

9. Convoluted attempt to halt Mitt Romney momentum in New Hampshire.

10. George is dead.
