Adios, Unit
The teams have a 72-hour period to finalize the deal, which is contingent upon a contract extension for Johnson and a physical. Don't ask me how a guy coming off back surgery is going to pass a physical, but I'm sure the D-Backs will find a way to pass him. The Yanks got younger and dumped a huge contract today. I fully expect them to at least try to get older with that money. Brian Cashman is going to make a full-court press to get Roger Clemens to pitch part of the season for the Yanks, and he should. Clemens still has unbelievable stuff, and if the Yanks get him, and he stays healthy, he's going to be their number two pitcher in the playoffs this year, behind Wang, who is without a doubt the ace of the staff. In other, less exciting Yankee news today, it looks like Doug Mientkiewicz will be taking over the everyday spot at first base. Mientkiewicz used to be a great glove, no bat kind of guy. Let's hope that his glove is still great, because he isn't going to contribute on the offensive side. I still think Matsui should be learning to play first so Melky can play in regularly in left.

Matsui at first would be a mistake. Melky will get his at bats - as long as the Yanks don't do something dumb and trade him.
thank god the unit is gone!!! Now please sign the rocket he's a shoe in for 20 wins with the yanks offense , and a sure number one playoff starter over wang the depredded fan is wrong about that one.. as far as the mientcewitz (or however u spell it) rumors that is a horrible horrible deal he cant hit a lick and is an ok glove why cant giambi and phillips split time why the F do we need a scrub like him..oh well hopefully by the summer i can be back in ny and in the bronx where i belong rather than running from my bookie... take care ... btw i got knocked out of a huge tourney with aces last night losing to a 4 card flush.
don't sign rocket. we don't need any more old guys who miraculously get stronger as they enter their forties and their skulls grow larger. (allegedly)
