why does thames sound so familar?

ah.. this is the reason

In related news, the Red Sox have signed Pete Incaviglia.

yea, like Im going to fall for that

If they need outfield help, they should call Ray Lankford.

Stupid trade. What is the point?

george found another sack of cash in his couch cushions and needed a place to spend it

-rolleyes-600K doesn't break the bank.

That said, Sierra sucks and the 3rd time is not a charm.-ohbfrank-

I am pissed at a couple of Brian Cashman's trading/signing the last couple of years involving the bullpen. First, they should had never let Jeff Nelson go. Who the **** was at his level or better for that role? Total BS about money issue. If the guy wanted 1-2 millions more, let him have since he was a big part of the team that won 4 WS.

Second, letting Mike Stanton go. Sure, he's doing poorly in the Mets now but ****, everyone in the Mets are suckekeke. Did they really believe Chris Hammond can repeat the season he had in 2002? Acevedo, Osuna, & Hitchcock suck as relievers. Give me back my Nelson, Stanton and Mendoza for middle relieve.

Wasting $600k in a bench-warmer DH/LF that is a has been, who posted an 800+ OPS only 3 times in his 17 years career. They should be worrying about their bullpen, not offense.

Speaking of George...you guys see that new Visa commercial yet? Great stuff.

how did the Yankees beat the Mets to this deal!?

Done. Please pick up Mendoza asap.

:lol:

He's a spy for the Yanks ;)

Does anyone remember that like '92 topps stadium club card with Sierra all pimped out wearing a white hat just chillin on a latin american street? That card still cracks me up to this day...and is one of my faves.

Love that ad....great way for those to make up.


Yankees bullpen is in need of some serious help. As Zuffy wrote they have made some really poor decisions. They used to have one helluva pen and Sierra is just a waste of money and space unless it was for some future deal they are going to make.
