Thats what I mean Guns... good reply. Why wait?
Cano will make mistakes. But he will also inject that line up with the kind of enthusiasm only youth brings. Now the Yankees have title caliber talent and the Knicks dont, but who knows how good we could have been if Ariza replaced TT after *his* first month of shooting 37%.
Steinbrenner is smart, he knows he has a legit superstar and winner in Jeter, he also has two other super talented players in A-rod and Sheff, so he knows that placing a few rookies in the lineup is not going to hurt this team too bad, remember we won the AL with young guys like Nick Johnson and Juan Rivera starting. People keep saying the yankees have no farm system, that is pure BS... The yanks over the last few years have been stocking that system and last year we had 4 of the first 40 picks in the draft I think, from losing wells and pettite to Free agency we were compensated with first round picks.. anwyway this shake up was long overdue, I like bernie but he has slowed down dramatically, It is not his fault, just father time, but at least the yanks are willing to make those types of moves, Bernie is in the last year of his contract, time to make some moves, we also need to move some dead weight, like giamib, gordon and quantrill.....
The knicks wish they were run like the Yanks, another big difference, the knicks owner is a self proclaimed idiot, when it comes to basketball knowledge.. Steinbrenner Prides himself on building winners, and his knowledge of the game...
Anyone who sits around and waits for the lottery to better themselves, either in real life or in sports, Is a Loser...............
