Screw science, right? There's no reason why the Athletics have been so solid on minimal payrolls.. there's no reason why the Rays are suddenly winning the AL Fucking East.. it just happens, right?<BR/><BR/>If you want to look at baseball like that, fine. But leave the people making true managerial decisions alone, because the "logrythmic" calculations are what win championships these days. The Sox won in '04 and '07 because they have one of the best front offices in baseball that utilize the "cutting edge" of baseball statistictry, and they will continue to crush the Yankees until Cashman gets his way. I think he's smart, though he could use some grooming. If the Yankees don't take a serious change in philosophy over the next few years, I'm going to lose faith in this team in addition to the faith I've already lost in our average fan. Cashman is right. You dumbfucks are the reason why we've been so, so wrong in the past. The science says the Yankees would be great (and were great) if not for injuries. They're right. Injuries just come when the average age of our field player is 45.<BR/><BR/>Postscript: Fuck you. I bet you graduated from college with a Comm or English degree (that is, if you have graduated from college to begin with) and lead a weak, pointless life.adamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02205375069396286222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3932285159851204335.post-66444047065930511342008-10-02T16:41:00.000-04:002008-10-02T16:41:00.000-04:00Sign Pavano.

They say Jeter and Arod are the only safe positions. Really Id say the only one is Jeter because of his legacy. If Cashman wanted he could trade the whole team away this year and get a young army for the farm and starting roster. But it wont happen. First year in the new stadium, First year not in the playoffs, they want are going to want a championship team out there in 2009 not a gamble. We wont trade away any youth this year and give up on it but we definitely will stay (somewhat) old. <BR/><BR/>I think after hearing Kellerman say it I can safely lobby for my most wanted trade ever. Trade for Ichiro. He thinks we can get him for Matsui + Melky + parts while they are down on him. Ichiro would bridge us to Jackson.<BR/><BR/>First base has a free agency too good to pass up just to leave empty for our aging crew. If Posada is done as a catcher in 2010 he can go out in left. Jeter will retire at SS. Arod in left/right/dh but that is long time off. Our corner outfielders right now are not long term commitment and both have a good chance of getting traded for prospects in the near future. The slots will be open. <BR/><BR/>Get CC. Thats all there is too it. He's a horse. But what if he has a slow year in 2009 because of all the pitching hes doing now? Sure maybe but hes held up this way for 3 years now. He seems like an old school pitcher and could probably handle it (david wells). More importantly, hes an Ace(not 35 years old) and he only cost money. Get him. And only him if we can get Moose to come back. Burnnet is the second coming of Pavano. <BR/><BR/>Ichiro cf (old)<BR/>Jeter ss(stud)<BR/>Tex 1st (young)<BR/>Arod 3rd (stud)<BR/>Manny dh (old)<BR/>Posada c (old)<BR/>Nady rf (temp)<BR/>Cano 2b (???)<BR/>Damon lf (old)<BR/><BR/>Wang<BR/>Joba<BR/>cc<BR/>Moose (no ring, new stadium, winning team, not going to retire)<BR/><BR/>SP depth: Hughes, Coke, Kennedy, Pettitte (alot cheaper)<BR/><BR/>Wang and CC are a post season tag team dynasty.
