Yeah $2million for Manny. . . . he's not at peak in his career but I would have never thought less than $10 million/yr for him . . . (how does one cope living on less than $5 million/yr, eh?) . . . I'm actually gonna miss the Rays of a few years ago . . . don't think I'd recognize them now . . . (not that I'm not happy about Crawford) . . .
all I know is Colon got a minor league deal . . . NY is crossing their fingers for Pettitte . . . Joba, with an injury, is middle relief? . . . their starting rotation is weaker . . . but I assume there will be another splash with them . . . they are the Yankees.
expectations are high for that ballclub up in Boston . . .
it's that time of year when I begin routinely checking the extended weather forecast for any sign of spring . . .
