"The Yankees want the Brewers to pay a portion of Cameron�s $10 million salary."

Amazing...also, our local sports station just reported that the Yankees have contacted the agent for Ben Sheets.... - Jim Dec 11, 11:08 1
- Y'know what, why don't we just buy the whole team! -- nm - znufrii Dec 11, 11:09
I'd run away from the deal in a heartbeat cuz it sucks, but I'd make sure to call Hank every name in the book along the way. -- nm - Will Hunting Dec 11, 11:05 21

  - Prospect? From the Yankees? - Will Hunting Dec 11, 11:08 11
    - Umm...yeah. The Yankees have some very good prospects. - krusty Dec 11, 11:16 4

        I believe they do, I haven't heard of him going anywhere in a trade. -- nm - krusty Dec 11, 11:26
      - Ian Kennedy was a bust; Hughes isn't much either yet. - Will Hunting Dec 11, 11:18 1
        
        No they're not but to say their prospects aren't good is wrong. - krusty Dec 11, 11:25
    - The amusing part is that if they sign these three pitchers plus Tex, they won't draft until round 6. -- nm - David, grim-eyed dude Dec 11, 11:09 5
      - I just like their idea of getting youger proven players involves a 36 year old; a 31 year old who's a .500 pitcher - Will Hunting Dec 11, 11:12 4
        
        And ruining their chances of replenishing in the draft this year in the process... -- nm - David, grim-eyed dude Dec 11, 11:15 3
        
        That's the biggest downside. The Yankees just don't get good draft picks anymore. - krusty Dec 11, 11:19 2
        
        It's the antithesis of how I believe foundation-building should work, but they really don't have a choice with Mussina retired. -- nm - David, grim-eyed dude Dec 11, 11:24
        
        Or sign em. - Will Hunting Dec 11, 11:20
- It's like Bill Gates calling you up and asking to spot him $20. -- nm - David, grim-eyed dude Dec 11, 11:06 7
  - Well, ya never know when Bill might be able to hook you up with something. - Will Hunting Dec 11, 11:07 6
    - hey (nm) - kelly Dec 11, 11:10 5
      - What kind of bowl? He might not like the bowl. Like, if it's metal, maybe he'd prefer plastic, etc. - Jim Dec 11, 11:17 2
        
        He liked it for the first 3.5 weeks!! - kelly Dec 11, 11:20 1
        
        Yep...short bus dog. welcome to the club!!! :) -- nm - Jim Dec 11, 11:27
      - *sigh* - Will Hunting Dec 11, 11:11 1
        
        Oh, I know. - kelly Dec 11, 11:16
