Bob Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Signed to a one-day contract so he could retire in pinstripes. Thanks for everything, Hideki. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unbanmadmike1 Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 A terrific player for about 5 years with the Yankees. It's a shame the yankees have really backed off the international market in recent years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PFSIKH Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 A terrific player for about 5 years with the Yankees. It's a shame the yankees have really backed off the international market in recent years. Sign of the times. Ewing Kauffman spent the Royals into contention during the 80s/90s. The Lakers have been spinning their wheels since Lucky Sperm took over from Dr. Buss. Now, George's offspring are not, for lack of a better term, old school owners. They are less inclined to spend their money to put the best possible product on the field. Do you think George would mention we need to get spending under control and enforce a self cap at $184 million? Doubt it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like there were any players in free agency that you can kill the yankees for not signing though and they are just about to give Cano an huge new deal. I'm more talking about the passes they took on Cespedes, Darvish and Chapman.... The posting cost for Darvish wouldn't have even counted on the luxury tax.

CrazyCarl40 Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 It's too bad they never got him a hat that fit. Always flying off in the outfield when he ran. Very good player and an excellent hitter. Haven't quite been able to replace him in the lineup yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Posted April 30, 2013 Author Share Posted April 30, 2013 Probably, the last Yankee I wanted to see up, after Jeter of course, in a pressure situation. He was our last bona fide Red Sox killer. He treated you guys like Big Papi treats us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
