What's going on in New York?
Hank Steinbrenner laid down this idiotic tirade. Blamming the National League and 130 years of major league baseball for an injury to his Wang.
Now, the Mets are blamming their Willie for a sub .500 record from a team expected to cruise to the World Series after adding Johan Santana.
Sounds as if the baseball men in New York are getting a little envious looking at all of those sky scrapers rising up on the sky line.
Now now, you know if the Yankees and Mets don't win 130 games every year they're unhappy...
Mebee it's time to look at their general managers, and find out why these teams are spending so much and getting so little back?
well cashman i dont think is at fault for the yankees but omar is DEFINATLY at fault for the mets.
Cashman was told to sign giambi and I THINK pavano. Jeter's contract is rediculas but at the time it was the going rate. F/A is getting thinner and thinner as people trade and bring up their own players na dsign long term deals.
Omar giving up the farm was nuts. glavine won 13 games for them last year. even if santan won 20 which nowadays seems rare thats inly an increse of 7 games. Santana was NOT the end all for the mets. and Omar emptied EVERYTHING they had for him. would be nice to have gomez in a corner OF spot right now wouldn't it.
it sure would be nice if we had one corner outfielder we could callQuote:

that this has been a problem for several years is geting really annoying.
the reyes #1 gome2 #2 could have been AWESOME. then put wright and beltran and get a 1B or another 25+ HR OF and they could have been a good team. unfortunatly I think they set the team back 2-3 years getting santana.
What tree would they have plucked this 1B and 25 HR outfielder off of?Quote:

Yeah, look at what the Yankees have been getting back on their salary investment: playoff appearances and division championships year after year for nearly two decades, and the franchise being among the most profitable in any sport in the world. It must really suck to spend all that money and just keep failing.Quote:
