jtk4 Posted February 15 Report Share Posted February 15 boone fucks us again, if he didn't get hurt they wouldn't of needed a third baseman.Nice job by the yankees, if they do not win it this year then Torre should be fired. :blown: :mad: :mad: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waltzink Posted February 15 Report Share Posted February 15 wait....i think this makes the yankees WORSE. they lose the best offensive second baseman in the majors in this deal and leave another hole there. not to mention the ego that joe torre is going to have to deal with between the likes of gary sheffield and kevin brown, who is notoriously known as possibly the meanest SOB in the game. good luck.....you guys just took on an extra 20 million on your payroll and basically shouldn't have a GM.....cause steinbrenner's fucking you.-walt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njdionysus Posted February 15 Report Share Posted February 15 Originally posted by waltzink wait....i think this makes the yankees WORSE. they lose the best offensive second baseman in the majors in this deal and leave another hole there You have to be kidding. Sure we lost Soriano, BUT we gained probably the BEST PLAYER IN BASEBALL, def a top 5 guy who will go on to become the game's greatest 3rd baseman ever!!! Leaving a hole at 2nd? So we have Enrique or Ciaro there, not a problem when you have Matsui Bernie and Posada as your 6 7 8 in the lineup, thats rediculous. There is the hole in the lineup? The only thing holding the Yankees back will be the question mark in their starting pitching! You Red Sox fans would have been gloating and bragging if he ended up in Boston, but we got one up on you AGAIN. Boone's homerun was that of legend, but his layup is what made this deal possible. That payroll is out of fucking control, but I am glad he is on our team and not yours.Jorre will maintain order in the locker room because he commands respect and gets it. Those that do not follow have been removed, Lofton is no gem but when you come to a team like this, there is one common goal among all those allstars - WINNING.

jtk4 Posted February 15 Report Share Posted February 15 All I am saying is they better win, if they do not they will be the laughing stock of MLB, wait, pro sports. Even worse then the tigers or the brewers, because of the money spent and the talent on the yankees. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jtk4 Posted February 15 Report Share Posted February 15 Thats fine but if they don't win the series then we can all laugh at them. What are the details is it just soriano for arod or were their others involved(contreras, navvaro)I do not think soriano will be that good, he has a hole in his swing and the yankees were smart to trade him before his value dropped.

waltzink Posted February 16 Report Share Posted February 16 stick soriano with a good hitting coach, and he will be fine. look at sammy sosa......i'm sorry, but this fetish with the yanks-red sox rivalry is making me sick. i have baltimore finishing ahead of BOTH of them.red sox will finish in third. and yes, i'm a sox fan saying this.-walt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trigger55 Posted February 16 Report Share Posted February 16 Yankee's won't be much better with him.. if at all. His stats weren't much better than Soriano's.. and now NY needs a good 2nd baseman. Jeter and A-Rod don't even get along, seeing one at SS and the other at 3rd will be fun to watch Yankee's need pitchers anyway, with Clemens, Wells, and Petite gone and no one to replace them.. I just don't see NY getting anywhere in the playoffs. So to sum up, I'm happy as a bosox fan that you guys got A-Rod cuz I think you guys are fucked..

A-Rod and Jeter are best of friends, where do you get the idea that they don't get along? If Rodrigues was willing to move to third for the Yankees and not the Red Sox it shows you where A-Rod's priorities are--winning a championship. Remember A-Rod had veto power over any trade, he wasn't shipped off by Texas, he AGREED to come to the Yankees knowing what the situation was at shortstop.I'd be more worried about chemistry in the Red Sox dugout than the Yankees' dugout. The Sox have two all-star players in Manny and Nomar (well, at least you better hope Nomar will be there) who will be playing for a team they know was willing to cut them loose.Face it, the Yankees have one of the deadliest lineups since the 1927 Yankees.Get over it. Oh, and remember . . . 1918 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trigger55 Posted February 16 Report Share Posted February 16 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.

Am I the only one that thinks this was a dumb move by NY?? Soriano was exposed last year as strikeout prone. They may have had similar numbers recently, but A-Rod is probably THE best player in the game, so the comparison is not really there. They made a good move in getting rid of Soriano. Let's face it, Ramirez and Rodriguez were not that far apart statistically, but the Red Sox still wanted A-Rod. Why? Because he's the best the league has to offer. PERIOD.

trigger55 Posted February 16 Report Share Posted February 16 yes he is certainly the best.. but like I said, not exactly what the yankee's need. They need pitchers, why can't you see that?? The Sox have a good line up of pitchers this season.. A-Rod would have helped them on offense. NY with sub-par pitchers is just asking the sox to walk all over them.

waltzink Posted February 16 Report Share Posted February 16 umm.....a-rod agreed to be traded to the red sox, too. the players association basically nixed that deal. seriously....check into it and you'll see i'm right. just cause he was traded to the yanks means that was the ONLY team he wanted to go to. he wanted out of texas....plain and simple.-walt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were looking to reduce his contract by more than what the Yankees ended up reducing his contract by. If the Red Sox had forked over more money they would have had A-Rod. Plain and simple.

k-hole6969 Posted February 17 Report Share Posted February 17 wait til next year when Boston has 6 or 7 key guys as free agents.....They are going to suck ass once again....hahaha...1918and to make things even sweetier for the yanks---how about Nomar playing second next year---that is a reality....

waltzink Posted February 17 Report Share Posted February 17 okay, i'm a very objective fan.....i've admitted the sox won't finish first.....but one thing that irritates me about some of fucking clowns is this: you act like they've won the trophy already.one pitch, one bad slide, two guys colliding for a fly ball.....and you could lose a player. we have a season to play, so shut the fuck up with this incessant drivel. by the way, just to rub it in, i called the marlins in 6 last year and won a few hundred on it. so suck it. it's a fucking GAME. idiots......-walt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as we dont lose to you sorry ass motherfuckers in Boston. This is going to be a hell of a season, not one that the Yankees will easily win either.

jtk4 Posted February 17 Report Share Posted February 17 I can't wait for the fist fight between lofton and scheffield, or kevin brown telling bernie williams to stop play that pussy guitar.: laugh: Lets wait before we give the division to you guys, the mets had a hell of a team on paper and couldn't fight their way out of last place.well they are the mets :laugh: Our pitching is better, your lineup is better, should be some good games.

What works to motivate one player does not necessarily work with another. Players who do not follow the format are shipped out, ala Raul Mondesi who complained about playing time and Ruben Sierra in his first stint with the team, he was traded away as well.

jtk4 Posted February 17 Report Share Posted February 17 maybe a couple of years ago but they know he will not be back next year. The players also know if the go .500 or start off slow that he will be fired and randolph will be the coach. It is really up to jeter to keep people in line, that is what captains do. We will see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you were Bill Buckner and blew the World Series with an error, would you sign the photograph noting you suck and will forever be remembered for it? This is great stuff, Boston sucks!
