Yankees Sign Headley...

[JeterRules20]

4 years I will post when I hear more.

Cashman is a bumbling idiot so he had to sign Headley. The roster would be a disaster if he signed elsewhere.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

I would like to know which team allegedly offered Headley 65 million, Actually the Yankees had a good plan if Headley was not retained, Prado at 3rd, Refsnyder at 2nd, then go on forward.

 

[JeterRules20]

Don't know anymore details but I have a source yes a source that I trust and he says deal is done but might not be announced today. Will post as soon as I know.

...I gotta believe that was some BS story leaked by his agent...if the Yanx gave him anywhere near that, I will lose what's left of my f'n mind.

...I never drank the Headley kool-aid.

I'm thinking it was a bs story also. We shall see what the contract ends up being.

Like I said the guy had one good year so yeah, if they gave him anymore then 3 years or $11- $12M per I'll lose my mind.

I hope it is a BS story, I can think of a dozen ways or players that much money could be spent on, for a better investment of another Ball Player or Commodity, as they're known today...!

 

[yankeesince59]

...Headley may be better defensively but I'd just as soon have Prado at 3B if ARod cannot cut the mustard...and if that happens and they need someone at 2B, let one of the kids battle it out for the job.

...I think this may be a case of Cashman feeling he just "had to do something" because he "didn't do anything" at the Winter meetings.

 

[JeterRules20]

We will see in the next day or two if I was told right.

 

[yankeesince59]

...Jill, the more I think about it, the more I hope your source is wrong...unless of course, the Yanx snag him on a VERY reasonable contract.

 

[JeterRules20]

Yeah I was hoping for a 3 year deal myself.

 

[Rick2583]

So far I haven't seen or heard anything about this deal.

 

[totus44]

Rather have Prado at 3B and call up Refsnyder.

That would be my choice also Tom. And save the money (Headley) & put it towards a SP.

 

[totus44]

As you know I don't give 2 shits about the money....just that this team needs a core nucleus of youngsters.

 

[JeterRules20]

Rick, I have a source that told me a 4 year deal should be announced in the next day or two. If not I guess my source is an ass and I will apologize for giving bad information. We will see.

I gotta' agree with ya'll on this one......

yep - If they do sign him, lets hope he continues to play good D, good OBP and hit 15-20 HRs. <--- AT LEAST 15-20 HRs.

I gotta' agree with ya'll on this one......

me too

 

[Hammerojustice]

Any update on this?

 

[JeterRules20]

No, so far I say my source sucks....

 

[yankeesince59]

...^^^ it's kinda hard to know exactly what to believe this time of year...so much news/reports to sift through.
