    Nova, green light, fine, who in the hell would want him. I agree with Matty on Sale, the Yankees need to be getting not giving away. I've always appreciated Mc Cann, the man has a good attitude and has overall contributed I'd hate to see him go.

    Several GMs around the league have come out and said the Yankee management team is annoying.
    I wonder why?........'Should we sell or should we buy' tells me Yankee group is clueless.....and reckless.

    Just an aside.......If Hal Steinbrenner could not sit through yesterday's Tampa Bay-Yankee game, how
    does he expect Yankee fans to pay high prices to watch this average ball club. And another thought......
    does he still think this is a playoff team? Sell because tomorrow is this team's future.

    Washington got Yankee reject, Mark Melancon from Pittsburgh. That's their closer? Talk about
    settling. Nats fed up with Trash man's offers.

    ...Melancon has been one of the game's top closers for the last few years.

    That Kemp Trade was a bit of a shocker, that guy is a fucking head case. I've probably respected McCann more so than any Yankee position player.

    With any trade, all is based on the needs of each team. That being said. How do the Yankees move
    a Nova or an Eovaldi or a Pineda who repeatedly shit the bed? If Trashman could move them, I
    would really wonder what he could get in return. But then again, we mentioned this before,
    It's all in the eye of the beholder. Who bites?

    Funny how fast Texas shifted gears from Vincent Velasquez (A ball local phenom SP).... to 'unlikely' trade for Vince; to Lucroy being the man...

    the beauty of these deadline trades, phones jumping off of cradles, stories/players sought, change all the time, reporter's don't always keep up, gotta' love it. The Net seems to be in step with the speed of Tweets...
