Breaking News...Yankees take the lead in Santana Sweepstakes

[10DimeBry]

all im saying is dont trade ellsbury. lester or bucholtz are expendable.

boston shouldnt even be bothering. regardless their team is loaded.

25 huh? Keep drinking the Kool Aid buddy.

If he goes to the yankees wayne, i would find a way to get a MOD in the middle and bet you $1,000 on a O/U of santana's wins in this first year. I will send the money gram to whom ever, Monte or where ever. Bring on the kool Aid, cuz i hope santana goes to the yankees and we will see what takes place.

give me Wang and Santana and they will be the top 2 pitchers in the MLB.

Doc, I'm dead serious in saying this ... I LOVE HUGHES!!!


He is going to be lights out and if you give me Hughes instead of Santana and i can take all that extra money saved to go get another starter to go with him and Wang, you are much better off.

wang is terrible bro. sorry. that guy just isnt good. if he didnt have the run support NYY gives him he would be H. nomo

Very true, he's a Japan gold mine, great logic, but i just don't understand why you wouldn't give up a prospect who hasn't proved himself for a full year. He's the A-rod (regular season only) of pitchers

So a minute ago they were idiots for paying 50 million and now that you have learned that they will make that money back 4 times over, it's great logic? Just for the record, it's not logic, it's a fact that Theo and Remy have openly talked about. That 50 million has already come back to Boston with deals they signed over there and many more are still to come. It isn't as simple and dumb as you once thought i guess. VERY smart business move by Boston.

I agree wayne... Kennedy, Melky, Tabata and another prospect could have easily got it done.... but i really do believe they are dangling Hughes out there to up boston's offer... Do you think i'm right or wrong?

35 posts with in 5 minutes..... thats who gives a fuck!!!

phillis hughes isnt the 2nd coming. look @ his stats. 4.50 era not dominating @ all. he might be a decent #2 guy. never an ace. and go ahead and bump this in a couple years

[10DimeBry]

poor chado, he is prolly beside himself right now....lol

Well i disagree. (19-7) with a 3.70 Era isn't bad at all.

I don't think you "Get It". I don't care if he wins 25 games. Give me a guy who wins 18 and the 10-15 million extra to play with.

[Watchtower76]

all this for a pitcher who has pitched 1308 innings, 1381 SO, 3.22 ERA and a 93-44 record, 2-time CY young winner for a team that never spends any money....WOW, if he can win 15 games with the twins with that team last year, can only imagine what he will do next year. And you guys want to keep your prospects, WOW

[Tinman1960]

Yanks Would Be Stupid To Give Up Hughes They Finally Have 3 Young Good Pitchers. Just Look At The Past What Has Happened When They Traded Them. For The Most Part A Lot Of Them Became Big Time Pitchers. I Hope They Don't Start This Stupid Pattern Again.

[Watchtower76]

That's fine, it's not worth arguing about it, i just think it's so stupid not to get a 3 out of the 5 year contract he'll be the CY winnner for what ever team picks him up...fyi they don't come around to often, but then again how many times do you watch the twins play, i'm sure not much.....Santana is just simply AMAZING

Dimer, you do know he had a bad hamstring and grade 3 ankle sprain while rehabbing... when he came back he got rocked...but if you notice over the last month and especially game 3 of the ALDS, he looked very good. Unhittable at times. Hell dimer, he was pitching a no hitter in his 2nd game just like buccholz

Santana is just simply AMAZING

So was Beckett.
