    ^^^I agree & wouldn't it be something if the Mets lost there 2 best hitters Murphy & Cespedes to there biggest division rivals. From what I've read though in today's paper the Mets will be meeting with Cespedes later today. My feelings, the Mets should resign him. JMO.

    BTW: in other news "THE NUT HAS FOUND A JOB", Fernando Rodney (39) has signed a one year contract with the San Diego Padres. Rodney is expected to take over the closer roll vacated by Craig Kimbal who was traded to the Red Sox.

    New York Daily News reports that Yoenis Cespedes' agents The Roc Nation Group reached out to the Yankees to gauge interest in the outfielder as per John Harper.

    Since it doesn't appear that the team will be trading away Gardner & they already have him, Ellsbury, Beltran & Hicks for the outfield, Cespedes doesn't seem very likely. Plus I just don't see the Yankees adding another $20M yearly contract to the payroll at this time.

    ^^^unreal...like I've been saying, when it soon comes time for a new CBA, I don't wanna hear any whining from the owners claiming that they're going broke.

    And here's the real joke on the Cespedes deal, he has an opt out clause after the 1st year.

    Not only will I never run out of friends but there's a few I'd like to get rid of. As far as A-Rod, since we're friends ask him if I can have a few thousand dollars I could really use it.

    I can't keep up with him he is all over the place. I will see him on March 25th when I go to the game. He promised me he would sign a couple of balls, after he does that I will ask him for some money. :biglaugh:

    Okay, get me a signed ball, who knows maybe it'll be worth something in 20-30 years.

    I'd say Tommy Hunter has a pair of balls & should take what he can get. One good season 5 years ago with Texas & he's done very little since.
