dudes been on fire

cant believe they passed on him....he wouldve helped with the revenue from Asia after Matsui left, they shouldve just gotten him for that reason if they didnt believe in his stuff (which is just awesome btw)

Another thread on Yu? Damn. Yup the one that got away. Consider the Yanks could have had a rotation of: CC, Pineda, Darvish, Kuroda, Pettitte...DAMN.

[Vides990]

^ if they got Darvish they wouldn't have signed Kuroda......probably don't trade for Pineda either.

[Dr. Detfink]

I understand that. Hence I used the word "Could have..." because no one could have prevented the Yankees from paying Kuroda that sum but the Yankees themselves.

But to quote Hal, "It's up to young guys like Nova, Hughes to step up..."

[moocow007]

Honestly, they should have traded Hughes instead of Burnett. Hughes has the deer-in-the-headlights look mastered more than Burnett ever did.

Yu has just become ridicolous....this ownership should be ashamed of their cheapness

even AJ Burnett has been having a amazing season

this team management should be fired

[Dr. Detfink]

Big AJ supporter and a great teammate but once his marriage went to hell, he needed a change of scenery.

No love lost on the front office. No imagination, talent eval skills, and pointing the finger too much.
