It would be wrong of me to go back to last week and recap the Yankee greatness that was, the 2009 World Series. Justice prevailed as Matsui finally got the Championship ring he ventured over the big lake for. Girardi was right and can breathe another day in Yankee land, maybe even ...
Matsui or Damon?
zellspinstripeblog.com 11/8/2009 — The champagne is barely cleaned from the carpets in the Yankees clubhouse and the confetti is not even cleaned from the Canyon of Heroes, yet some important decisions need to be made about the Yankees’ three free agents. I am of course referring to Matsui, Damon and Pettitte. I am not ...

The New York Yankees celebrate after Game 6 of the Major League Baseball World Series against the Philadelphia Phillies Wednesday, Nov. 4, 2009, in New York. The Yankees won ...
Was Game 6 Matsui’s Swang Song?
nybaseballdigest.com 11/5/2009 — Speculation is the Yankees will not re-sign designated hitter Hideki Matsui.
Obviously the newly crowned World Champions have decisions to make as they attempt to get a bit younger and look toward the time when both Jorge Posada and Derek Jeter spend time as designated hitters.
If that is ...
Could the Yanks keep all three free agents?
riveraveblues.com 29 days ago — When discussing the pending free agencies of Hideki Matsui and Johnny Damon , the refrain all season long was that the Yankees would probably keep one and cut loose the other. On the surface, that seemed to make sense. Both players will be 36 next ...
Wrapping Up the Yankees Win, the Parade, and Matsui Thoughts
noyoureatowel.net 11/9/2009 — I know I wrote a whole post about what a giant disappointment the Giants were, but the whole NFL day was shot yesterday for me. I won maybe three games in my spread pick-em league. My suicide team (the Packers) busted. My two best bets for the week (San Fran and Baltimore) couldn't cover. And ...
The Hardest Off-Season Decision Looms
puristbleedspinstripes.com 11/7/2009 — When you’re the defending World Champions, life is usually pretty good in the offseason; the decisions you need to make to improve your team fairly minimal.
Right now, it looks like the Yankees may want to sign another starter–not a one or a two, but an insurance policy if Hughes ...
Another Name To Consider
yankeesredsox.com 27 days ago — One of the tougher decisions facing the 2010 Yankees is how to allocate AB's to the DH spot. If they bring back Damon, they would have four different players (Damon, A-Rod, Jeter and Posada) who could potentially get more than 10 games each at DH. That's one of the reasons why the ...
Hideki Matsui: the Silent Hero
soxandpinstripes.com 11/6/2009 — If this was his last night in pinstripes, Hideki Matsui had one of the most memorable careers we will almost definitely overlook. His last moments could have come during the same game as Andy Pettitte and Johnny Damon. One is a decorated hero of postseason history and a staple of the old guard ...
An agent’s online appeal for Hideki
riveraveblues.com 27 days ago — It’s not a stretch to say that no sport has been impacted more by the power of the Internet by baseball. From the rise of cross-country sabermetrics to the proliferation of blogs and smarter analysis than that offered by local papers and sports ...

The Daily Blahg - NY Daily News Blogs 30 days ago
Far be it from me to rain on Brian Cashman's well-deserved parade, but the Blahg is just too negative a place to let things slide. So it must be pointed out that, really, none of the Yanks developed by Cashman over the past decade had much to do with ...
