Yankees Sign Teixeira

[ScoBuck]

Way to Go Yankees. Let's see, who is next on our Christmas List.

I posted this first in the Hot Stove thread.

What a spending spree! But I guess getting rid of Giambi's contract helped a little with the offset. My Angels are going to have to take a long hard look at Manny now.

As well as Mussina and Pavano

Word from Angel Stadium is that Manny is no longer on the Angels' radar.

Our Angels will not sign Manny.

WOW! All of a sudden the Angels fans are coming out of the woodwork here. I thought there were only 2 of us on the boards.

Actually, coming off the Yankees' payrol this year is Giambi ($21M), Abreu ($16M), Mussina ($11M), Pavano ($11M), and possibly Pettite ($16M). That's a total of possibly $75M to spend.

Manny could be next.

The finest team that money can buy. Sickening.

Ok, you save 75M and spend 400M, thats fiscal responsibility.

The obligatory haters come out. You would be cheering if your team could spend the money.

Is Teixeira gonna play 1B, or DH? I guess with Giambi leaving, it's 1B. So now when Big Papi is a free agent in 2011, he'll go to the Yanks too. When is Matsui's contract up?

The Red Sox can afford to pay Big Papi whatever they want.

Tex will play first base. He's an excellent defensive 1st baseman. Maybe he can help hide Jeter's defensive libility.

MY team(s) CAN pay that money

Look where it got you last year.

 

[roachxp]

Big Papi will be gone by allstar break or season end in a trade if he dosen't produce this season for some younger player(s) because he dosen't have Manny to protect him and not healthy.

 

[SandraC]

Look where it got you last year.

Yeah, really. Today should be a day of celebration for Yankee haters. Why does everyone sound so disgusted?

The Yankees will pay even more in luxury tax, probably not win a championship, and you'll all be happy!

If anyone remembers, I was the one who said the Yankees would spend like 'drunken sailors' this off-season. Not the most difficult prediction to make, but I bet they're not done either...

As a die hard METS fan, all I have to say is everyone should be pissed . . . Yankees, once again, are killing the free agency market for every team regardless of the team's city size, tv audience, marketability, etc. . . . BUT AS US METS FANS HAVE SAID BEFORE, A-ROD IS A VIRUS ON ANY TEAM AND WITH HIM, THEY WILL NEVER WIN!!!!!!
