Losing Hideki Matsui after MVP World Series performance may be wrong move for New York Yankees

— nydailynews.com — If this turns out to be goodbye for Hideki Matsui , it goes down as the greatest exit since John Elway won a second straight Super Bowl and rode off into the sunset. It's not exactly the same, of course. Matsui would love to keep his pinstripes and ... (more) Losing Hideki Matsui after MVP World Series performance ...

Odds & Ends: Yankees, Strasburg, Holliday
MLB Rumors - MLBTradeRumors.com — ... Some links for Tuesday morning... ESPN.com's Rob Neyer says the Yankees will probably want to become younger this offseason, even if it's just a marginal change. Former Rockies assistant GM Chris Rice tells Irv Moss of the Denver Post how "exciting and tense" the expansion draft was before the team's inaugural season. As Danny Knobler of CBSSports points out, the Phillies' decision to go after Cliff Lee instead of Roy Halladay looks smart right now.   Harry Pavlidis of The ...

Fack Youk — ... Rob Neyer wonders if the Yankees' desire to get younger means we're seeing last of Hideki Matsui in Pinstripes. David Pinto speculates that the Yankees might let go of Matsui and Johnny Damon in favor of signing Matt Holliday. Am I the only one fundamentally opposed to Matt Holliday? I was not high on his prospects at the beginning of this year, and if you'll recall, he wasn't all that great in 400 PAs in Oakland before getting dealt to St. Louis. Yankee Stadium is certainly a hitter's park but he has hit 77% of his career home runs ...
