At the same time guys, don't forget he left. The yanks didn't offer the 10 years so he signed elsewhere..... so Cano left the Yankees. That should be the end of that. You can't fault the yanks. They did not want to give him 10 years. That should be enough to just except that and move on.

Yankees will win it all very soon without Cano

What do you do with Gardner now?

play him in left.. you will have a blazing fast outfield and two guys who can be hell on the bases.

Yeah, that would give us a very good outfield and top of the batting order - at least I'm hoping they would put Gardner, not Jeter, in one of the top spots.

Omar infante is next, lol.

Then they will throw the kitchen sink at the Japanese pitcher and probably sign one other starting pitcher and some relievers

Vroom!

Wow, unless we're trading Gardner, we have four outfielders (not counting Ichiro)

They will probably trade gardener now

At least Beltrán Gives you what you lost in cano. Better fit than choo in my opinion

The 3 additions together (which cost only a little more than Cano alone) give MUCH more than you could get from just Cano.

Also, I know I said yesterday they should have gone up to around $205 mil for Cano, but that offer probably wouldn't have made sense. If you're offering $175 and the other person won't go below $300, it seems silly to change your offer to $205.

So I guess the payroll is at around $170 mil counting Ellsbury, who, for some reason is not on this list.

But only around $145 mil if A-Rod is out all year.

And I think 3 years, $45 mil on Beltran is a much better deal than 4 years, $60 mil on Granderson

He started out in the infield with the yanks.... that would be hilarious to me. But fun! I wonder if he would do that? I don't remember if he sucked at 2nd or not. Im thinking he was making alt of errirs that's why he was moved or was it the emergence of Cano?
