The Yankees always have and always will go out and overpay for players. There's a reason why the RedSox wouldnt pay Damon 52 million, he has almost a worse arm than Bernie Williams. Good move on the offensive side though, as it allows Jeter to bat in his natural #2 slot in the order versus leadoff.
Yankees can have as many bats as they want. They're going to have the same problem in '06 that they had in '05, no pitching. They'll make the playoffs but be bounced again in the division or league series.
Now my Dodgers on the other hand. They're putting it all together. Just need another starting pitcher. Nomaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!Comment

1) Damon never went back to the Sox to ask them to match the offer, I think he either a) wanted to stir up controversy, or b) actually wanted to be a Yankee.Originally posted by AtticusThe Yankees always have and always will go out and overpay for players. There's a reason why the RedSox wouldnt pay Damon 52 million, he has almost a worse arm than Bernie Williams.
2) His arm is about on par with Williams, but he's significantly faster, which will make the outfield SIGNIFICANTLY stronger (making up for Sheffield and Matsui's relative slowness). Also more speed on the basepaths is always good.

Damon wanted more than 4 years originally. Yankees and Red Sox would only offer the 4. Red Sox also weren't willing to pay 52 million over 4 years to a 32 year old. Just like they weren't willing to pay Pedro that last winter. Both wise choices.Originally posted by SMachiz1) Damon never went back to the Sox to ask them to match the offer, I think he either a) wanted to stir up controversy, or b) actually wanted to be a Yankee.

Cheerio.
Another interesting stat that I was reading was Damon's offensive statistics at batter friendly Fenway versus other parks. Batting average of 25 points less.
Red Sox can take that 52 million and find a suitable replacement in CF and use the rest on pitching. Basically what the Yankees should of done but havent over the past 5 years.Comment

I'm a Yankee fan, and I gotta say, I'm not too thrilled about it. Dude throws like my sister, and $13M x 4 is steep. Of course, if he posts .325-avg 125-R 30-2d 20-SB I'll learn to live with it.
But I still see this douchebag sending it into the upperdeck in game 7 off that pussyboy Vasquez
no fucking way did I want himComment

He prefers to bat #2 in the lineup, only reason he has been leading off has been the Yankees lack of a clear leadoff man, now they have that. Cashman has already stated that they picked up Damon for that top spot in the order.Originally posted by Youngya Jeter is just going to love being a sacrafice bitch for damon....not likely. things are going to be mixed up...trust me.Comment
