they won;t trade him in the division unless they got a ripping deal.

Mike 12-12-2008 03:02 PM

they would have......if they didnt suddenly get out of the basement. and for some reason i thought his contract was up, or almost up

:cbrrmike:

the yankees operate within the rules set by mlb, if any other team in the league had the income of the yankees, they would spend it too

NastyEllEssWon 12-12-2008 05:09 PM

mlb needs a salary cap like the nfl

If that were the case, don't you think they would be champions every year?

*claps hands* good answer..good answer :lol:

NastyEllEssWon 12-13-2008 10:13 AM

nope....because of all the players they get...they cant replace torre. good coaches are hard to find and even harder to keep.



plus a rod can only hit homeruns when the yankees are up by 5 already. let them need a two run homer to tie the game and he whiffs more than ryan howard after the all star break :nod:




phillies will repeat and threepeat woooo

Call me when you get to 5.

NastyEllEssWon 12-13-2008 11:31 AM

bought and paid for by the new york yankees.

BigAls87Z28 12-13-2008 11:32 AM

Ive said it other threads, Ill say it here..
Yankees were better when they didnt have a billion dollar payroll.
Still doesnt count for the 26 championships the Yankees have.

Realize that if the Phillies won every other year for the next 40 years, they would still be short of the Yankees?
And thats to say that the Yankees dont make it back to the WS over the same time period.

NastyEllEssWon 12-13-2008 11:39 AM

when dallas won 3 superbowls in 4 years the nfl went and installed a salary cap to keep things interesting. mlb shouldve done it decades ago.



either way...yes ny has 26 championships. its also funny that the mlb banks on the yankees winning. heh maybe they got a little bit of extra ump help along the way.


the phillies sure got no love from the umps this year.

Melky has a decent arm, but Camaron is a much better fielder even at his age. He's also known to be a leader in the club house. If the Yanks make the trade, Camaron will most likely be a one year deal. The Yanks have this kid Jackson in double-A Trenton that's suppose to be the real deal in center and he should be ready to come up by 2010. Melky had 3 years to prove himself. It hasn't happen. Good riddance to him.

Mike 12-20-2008 09:13 AM

jackson dosent look any better than melky did when he was in trenton........

Camaron is an old steroid user. They break down easy (see anyone named Giambi). No thanks, I see him as zero improvement. But the Brewers say the deal is dead anyway.

I hope A.J. becomes a star, my kid got his autograph lat year!

Mike 12-20-2008 09:25 AM

melky dosent turn 25 until august, i think his problems last year were compounded by the fact that the pitching blew every lead the yankees had, and it made it blaringly obvious who was slumping......cano played like **** last year too, should they trade him after one bad season?

BigAls87Z28 12-20-2008 12:12 PM

Melky had a rough year, no doubt, but I wouldnt get rid of him. The kid has a lot of heart, and that was shown a few years ago when the outfielders were dropping like flies, and he was brought in to take up the slack.
He has done so IMO.

BonzoHansen 12-20-2008 12:46 PM

I don't care about melky I just don't see old Camaron being an improvement.

SteveR 12-26-2008 01:24 AM

Melky seems like a good kid, and is a pretty good outfielder, but he stinks at the plate, plain and simple. Camaron is at least a little more consistent. The Yanks have had serious problems getting their minor league players accustomed to major league pitchers. How many has it been in the last few years that had massive potential, then lost? Let's see... Bubba Crosby for starters.
