Yanks get Abreu, Lidle

[Sabres244]

sorry I proved you wrong

[Orange Nation]

you tell yourself that

[cones5108]

haha some people on here are so serious

btw what has he done this yr but lead all 3B in errors?

And you judge a player now by half a year? A-rod > Papi
You can't judge a player by half a season A-rods numbers have been improving and they will continue to do so.

[cones5108]

Since the all star break here are his numbers.

.192 0 hr 6 rbi obp% .306

Ever heard of a slump?

ok atleast we wont get rid of him like hmm say Edgar Renteria

[Orange Nation]

yeah cuz no one would want to take on that contract

anyways, back on topic...

Abreu > Cabrera
Wilson > Williams/Crosby/Guiel

Eh, I don't really like Lidle. He's going to be a 5.00 ERA + in the AL. You got to go back to 2002 to see his last good season. I don't see how moving to Yankee Stadium is going to help him. He's got a penchant to surrender bombs against lefthanded hitters. That 313 FT porch should look awfully shallow. He's got decent control, but he's allowed more hits then IP this year. Now you're asking him to move to the AL East? Good luck.

Basically, the Yankees improved their offense, but did little to improve the pitching staff. By little, I mean nothing.

I cant believe we gave up M.Smith



CJ Henry I really dont care about. He could be a good player but he is a SS and is stuck behind Jeter



Oh well I dont think the deal improves the Yanks all that much


Lidle sucks and Abreu is nothing more than avg at this point. The short pourch in Right might help him though

i hope you take back that lidle statement after yesterdays game...he was looking pretty good to me...and abreu is going to help in huge ways...he gets on base...is 100 times better in right than anyone they had there...and there is nothing saying for sure that we will get matsui or sheff back...this team looks like the team to beat for sure now...and perfect timing with the red sox getting injured like the Yanks...lets see if they can overcome and battle like the Yankees...Go Yankees!!

I'm not taking back my Lidle statment yet



Yes he did have a good outing but lets not go crazy over 1 game.



There is a reason he almost a 5 ERA in the NL before he came over



But by all means if he wants to keep proving me wrong he can go right ahead :)



Abreu has been a pleasent surprise so far. He looks relaxed and that may have to do w/ the fact that the on the Yankees he is just another player instead of "The player" needed to drive in runs.

So, the Yankess pick up a $15 + million RF to replace their injured $15+ million RF? Yeah teams in Cleveland, Kansas City, Pittsburgh, etc. really have a chance to win. Until baseball goes to a salary cap: Baseball is gay and the Yankees are Richard Simmons. :gay:

Who said Bobby's numbers would improve? Yes I believe that was me
