You wanting a blond lot trade or specific cards?<br /><br />I think what everyone (except NYY fans) is finding amusing is that the Yankees are reduced to the same level or below a lot of teams. The Rangers took a similar chance on Dave Bush and Brandon Webb but they aren't usually buying rings. That's probably what makes the Millwood signing noteworthy to most folks.Spiffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15614196449493651457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6061800788985767182.post-15249551021265527352011-03-25T23:27:47.604-05:002011-03-25T23:27:47.604-05:00Just found your blog - great work.

Completely low risk. He'll stay in extended spring training or head to AAA and provide insurance if/when Colon or Garcia falters. None of these guys need to be great or pitch to their 2003 form (and no oen is expecting them to) - just eat 5-6 innings and keep them in the game, especially given the strength of the bullpen. Really, the Yanks are just looking to stay afloat until a better option is available in June or July, like Chris Carpenter if the Cards fall out of the NL Central race (just an example). It's not ideal at all, but it's not as big of a deal as it's being made out to be.The Lost Collectorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07281282785351456790noreply@blogger.com
