lol jeter and pay-rod best friends?? maybe on camera... Also, I'm not a die hard sox fan.. 1918 blah blah none of that crap concerns me. Sox are #3 on my list of favorites.. been a Blue Jays fan most of my life.. I'm just saying what I think will happen, remember, pitching wins the playoffs.. thats something NY is seriously lacking in right now. So far all NY fans are saying are "a-rod is the best player, the yankee's will win".. if you think one player with good stats (not even THAT good) will make a difference, then think again. You lost 3 great pitchers and in return you got a hitter thats not too much better than soriano statistically. His payroll doesn't help the situation much either. Am I the only one that thinks this was a dumb move by NY?? Manny won't be pissed.. he WANTED to play for the Yankees and still does. Nomar on the other hand probably would be, but he's getting paid well and by the time the playoffs come around.. those issues will be long forgotten.
