2012 MLB Season

The Josh Hamilton rumors are still a flyin, fueled that the Yankees are selling their share of the YES network (supposedly $400 million or something like that) soooo everyone is assuming this is a way to open money up for Josh.
Maybe spurred on by some of the huge moves made by the Jays.


If so we'll have to wait and see. I like the guy and he's a great player, but can we just leave faith in him to stay straight or will the crushing pressure and intense night life f**k him up?

Boy did Greinke get overpaid!

So Josh Hamilton has agreed to a 5 year/$125 million deal with the Angels. Are they trying to compete with the Dodgers to see who can become the Yankees of the West or what? What do you guys think?

$12 million for Youkilis?

Because Scott Yankees fans are getting their "wish"
The team seems dedicated to this whole getting their spending under control.
Many of us gripe about it and I'm glad they're doing it but I was afraid many would flip flop, and indeed the radios have been berserk "GAH WHY DIDNT YOU SIGN (insert name)?" I hope in the long run when we shed the real big $ wasted the Yanks can build more natural teams.


I don't have an issue with players from rivals but this one does have a bit of an odd feel. I mean Youkilis wasn't just a player for the Sahx, he's a guy I think of when you say Red Sox. Kind of like their Jeter. But we'll get over it and if he does well I say welcome to the pin strips you-kill-us!

I am not that familiar with the Jays prospects but I feel that they are making a mistake given up youth for a 36-year old knuckleballer with only 2 good years under his belt.  Granted, he won the Cy Young award last year with a bad Mets team, but I just don't see him coming close to repeating that again.
