Maxman Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Have they made any moves? Has anybody made any moves? Is it because the free agent class is so weak? Maybe the Yankees are trying to not set the market for once and avoid overpaying? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maxman Posted November 26, 2011 Author Share Posted November 26, 2011 It's November... The pace just seems slower than usual. I am not complaining about that....when the Yankees don't make a stupid free agency splash I feel like they have a better shot of winning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not complaining about that....when the Yankees don't make a stupid free agency splash I feel like they have a better shot of winning. Free agency/off-season moves really doesn't pick up until after Thanksgiving and at the winter meetings, which is usually early December (believe they are starting Dec. 5h) though most of the big names wont sign till just before or just after Christmas. At least that's what I've noticed over the years. The Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GimmeShelter Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 Yankees acquired LHP Cesar Cabral from the Royals for cash considerations. The Royals selected Cabral from the Red Sox in Thursday's Rule 5 Draft. The 22-year-old left-hander posted a 2.95 ERA this season while striking out 70 over 55 innings between High- and Double-A. He'll try to make the Yankees' bullpen out of spring training. 22 year old bullpen lefty is a nice move considering it only cost money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bugg Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 The posting fees for Darvish is $40 million payable to the Japanese team, which does not include the cost of a 5-year contract payable to him; figure another $15 million for him. So that's a probably $100 million for a guy who despite good size has neve rthrown a pitch to an MLB batter, unless you count a few innings of the WBC. That annualized is more or equal to Halladay and Sabbathia's contracts. No thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morrissey Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 Yankees signed Hideki Okajima. Former Red Sox. Didn't pitch much in the majors last season. Why? Sox pen was pretty bad at times and he pitched well in the minors.... if he pitches well in spring training for the Yankees a spot in our pen is his to loose.

He pitched well in the minors because of his deceptive delivery. Major league hitters figured it out a few years ago and it's not hard for them to hit an 87 mile an hour fastball.

Bob Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 It was a non-roster spring training invitation. If he shows enough to be a spot lefty, great. If not, no loss. I'm with Carl on this one, though. I doubt he can be effective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonEJet Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Yanks sign Delcarmen to minor-league deal By: DJ Bean 2 Former Red Sox pitcher and Hyde Park native Manny Delcarmen has signed a minor-league contract with the Yankees, Joel Sherman of the New York Post reported Monday evening. Delcarmen, who was selected in the second round of the 2000 draft by the Sox, played for Boston from 2005-10, before being traded to the Rockies. He split the 2011 season in the minor leagues between the Mariners and Rangers organizations, but did not throw a pitch in the majors. In his career, Delcarmen has a 3.97 earned run average and 249 strikeouts in 292 2/3 innings. For more on the Red Sox, visit weei.com/redsox. Nice signing for depth...I mean the Yanks have by far the deepest pen in baseball....Signing Manny is a low cost option in case of injuries Another solid move by Cash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
