^i guess they have to find some way to put asses in those seats after the novelty of the new stadium wears off

JJ Putz to Mets too now in 3-team trade.....

Their bullpen went from shotty to possibly good now with Putz for the eight and KRod for 9th.

Manny is a Yankee!

No Manny yet for the Yankees, so they sign Teixeira for 8 years over $170 M.

Thats like $420 Million that they Yankees have spent this offseason on 3 players.

12/23/2008 4:46:57 PM

Wow Yanks spending a shit ton of $$ this offseason; but I'm all for it.

12/23/2008 5:54:55 PM

Its amazing they are still under last year's payroll.

Thread is dead lately

obvious most of you heard Burrell to Tampa and Giambi back to Oakland

but the breaking news is Smoltz to Boston

1/7/2009 11:16:45 PM

^where he'll team up with baldelli

That is a great pick up by Boston if he can stay healthy.

1/7/2009 11:25:07 PM

definitely, but that's a huge if though

also have yet to see the figures of the deal

1/7/2009 11:26:49 PM

^ $5m base, $5m incentives.

Dumb move by the Braves I think

John Smoltz is an Atlanta icon, how could he leave?

I hate that no players are loyal anymore.....Tony Gwynn/Cal Ripken are rare deals.

But I guess I can't blame him because ATL isn't even trying to field a winner.....

Money, a chance to win a ring

John Smoltz was incredibly loyal, there's no point in him sticking around on a club that's going to win 60 games in what should be his final year. He deserves a shot to win another ring.

It's a "rebuilding year"

We aren't the Mets, we can't go out and buy a second-place team every year.

Oh snap

It could be worse though. You could be like my Mariners and buy yourself a last place team.
