Is the Yankee front office starting to get it?
Published 1/24/2008 by Jason at MY BASEBALL BIAS
... up one of their young star players by buying out the rest of his (Cano) arbitration years. I wonder if there is a deal in the works for Wang as well. And why why not? He pitches deep into games and has shown himself to be durable enough to throw over 400 innings the last two years on top of winning 38 games. Add that to the above list and I would say the front office has completely changed their philosophy in one short off-season. Amazing. Hat tip to Joseph P. at River Ave. Blues for the Rosenthal link.
