Is it me or does Beltran look like the love child of Big Joe and Pitbull?

Giradi said that A-rod has to earn his playing time. Glad that we aren't handing A-rod a free starting spot.

If everything works out than we could easily win 90 games. However if injuries happen than we could win 75 games or less. Anything could happen this yr.

We could also win no more than 75 games if nothing works out.

CC gained weight. Tex is on a diet. Let's pray that this helps them.

Great team to watch. No compelling young players, bunch of old overpaid d*cks trying to come back from injury (CC,Beltran,Tex,ARod), hoping two others avoid injury - Matsaka, Ellsbury.

really fun

Unless it's a magical "repair your destroyed ligaments" diet, then no.

Tanaka and Pineda could be beast, health is a huge issue though. CC better step the fxck up this season

This offense is full of hit or miss players.

Here's my bold asinine prediction for the Yankees: Ryan Braun or Andre Ethier gets traded to the Yanks

I don't have crazy expectations this year because I feel that Tex, CC and Ellsbury will all be out by ASB and we'll make a blockbuster trade. I despise A-Rod but hes still a Yank so I'll treat him as such. I cant wait for opening day Im coming up from DC and I'll be in the Bleacher Creatures section 203.

Spring Training On the Horizon and Other Yankee Related Stuff 

Post#18 » by NetsFanFromNJ » Thu Mar 5, 2015 2:02 pm

I'm so sick of hearing about Arod. Whenever I listen to sports radio they break down the Yankees and then they break down Arod. Yesterday I stopped home on my lunch break and turned on ESPN to find them airing a live look in on one of Arods AB's in SPRING TRAINING.

I'm just so sick of hearing about this guy, if he can help our team get better and rack up a few HR's in the DH spot I'm all for it, but other that im sick of hearing about Arod.

Face it, you'll hear a lot about A-Rod because:

a) That's the way sports is now
b) This Yankee team is fairly unexciting and not really that compelling.
