 Sign Bonds
Sign Bonds
I've been against this idea for a while, but over the past few days I've been thinking about it and made a complete 180 on the idea. The Yankees should definitely sign Barry Bonds. Before responding, ask yourself this question; Do you want the Yankees to make the postseason or not?

Pettitte Rips Yanks After Another Sorry Performance
From Mark Feinsand : With the Yankees seemingly already in All-Star break mode during Sunday's 4-1 loss to the Blue Jays, Pettitte called out his team, and issued a challenge for the second half. "If we want to make the playoffs, we have to be better," said Pettitte, who took the loss Sunday. "We stink right now for the most part. As a team, we've kind of stunk it up here lately, so we need to ...

Madden: Ponson shows that first-place Tampa Bay is still only half-way there

He had complete command of all his pitches, effectively mixing in cutters, sinkers, changeups and a 4-seam ...
