Of course, when you have the benefit of hindsight, you can say what "should have been done."
Also, I like #1. "Stay healthy" as if the Yankees have some real control over that. :rolleyes:
Oh, and yes, of course, they should've gotten rid of their best player.
And how exactly would they have traded for Johan Santana AND C.C. or Harden AND Bay or Ramirez?
This list is a joke.
lol:)Quote:

by the way, best moment in the article:
"He bats .401 with 23 home runs when the bases are empty, but hits just .385 with 12 home runs when runners are in scoring position."
WTF?!?! just .385?? lol
I think it's safe to say that askmen.com is not the most reputable news source, especially for a list of this nature... :D
Move number 1. Get out of the AL East. Since God started answering my prayers on the Red Sox, the Yankees have known nothing but humiliation.Quote:

Bay and Nady are about the same age, 29. nady had far and away his best season this year. Bay, for Bay, was normal. Career OPS+ : Bay 130, Nady 108. I would say that Bay has been clearly better.
As far as ARod.....the stats cited make no sense whatsoever. He hit .302 in 2008. How could he possibly have hit .401 with the bases empty and also hit .385 with runners in scoring position? This has to be at least a couple of hundred at bats, so what is left to drag his average down to "just" .302? Did he hit .025 with a runner at first base?
And last year Bay was horrible (for him)....I'm of the opinion what we saw of them this year is what we're likely to see for the next 4 years.Quote:
