With the strike of madness, let the bidding for John Lackey, Jason Bay, Matt Holliday begin! Though this year, the Yankees aren’t as likely to spend more money than most 3rd world nations do in a year. Given, this year, the Yankees have are in a slight different position after handily putting away the Phillies in six games to claim championship #27.
Then again, after making a huge splash last year with CC , I didn’t at all expect the signing of Mark Teixeira, so I am open to surprises and will expect anything.
Last year, I was ecstatic to shed the contracts of Jason Giambi, Carl Pavano and Kyle Farnsworth. If I could have, I would have been at the stadium to waive goodbye as they left the home team for the final time. This year, if either one of Pettitte, Matsui, or Damon don’t return, I will be saddened. Alas, that is the nature of the beast.
While it isn’t expected the Yankees are to be big players in free agency, if they acquired Roy Halladay during this time (which is a possibility now), I’d certainly be happy.
