Beav...exactly how many times have you splooged on your keyboard today since hearing this news, and will you still be present next season when the Yanks fold around the ASB like last year? Hahahaha.
Meanwhile the Red Sox have done absolutely diddly squat to improve on their lucky season and have actually regressed(Ellsbury).:help:
Tanaka is a HUGE addition to the Yankees and puts them by most experts as contenders for the AL East title and some have them as contenders for the World Series.
4. Cellar(you guessed it, the team that was lucky because all of the pieces fell into place last year, for this to happen two years in a row is highly unlikely, especially when you have done nothing, unless you consider the signing of the Corpse of Grady Sizemore an improvement.:lol:

Tanaka: Yankees Showed Me The Most Appreciation
On a side note are you back on the Yanks bandwagon or you sticking with your BJ's?
METS 80-1
The Dodgers would have been overwhelming favorites to win the World Series if they had signed Tanaka, so the rest of baseball should send thank you notes to the Yankees for preventing that from happening.
The Tigers have the best starting rotation in baseball and the best hitter in baseball. At the beginning of last year I thought they were the team to beat and I think they are certainly the team to beat in the AL. The Dodgers would have been overwhelming favorites to win the World Series if they had signed Tanaka, so the rest of baseball should send thank you notes to the Yankees for preventing that from happening. I am guessing the Dodgers were one of the bids that was close to the Yankees, but no cigar.

You have said some incredibly smart things over the years Beav, but what i quoted below is one of the smartest ever! The Yanks did many teams a favor indeed, as well as themselves. :thumb:
