The Yankees need to work on this valuation of outfielders....4 year deal with Brett Gardner for $52mil.

Basically 40% cheaper than that absurd Ellsbury contract and they're still messing up by moving the superior defensive player to a less vital outfield position to slot Ellsbury into center.

Both guys are 6-7 year veterans with career WARs in the 19-20 range....

- Course, Ellsbury's comps aren't exactly crushing it either at the same age. - Will Hunting Feb 23, 11:52
