We don’t introduce new statistics at Yale. We already know them all.

The Yankees did offer Damon a 2 year deal. That’s a fact.

—

Not really.

If the Yankees front office read the outfielder market last year with Abreu to a tee then this year is no different.

If they offered 2 years to Damon before any team offered 1 and in a market where no team will sign him for two then the Yankees in one year flat went from being smart and savvy to stupid.

The market for Damon was and has always been the same as Abreu’s last year – 1 year max.

Eventually when Damon signs for 1 year and 5 mil somewhere, you’re saying the Yankees overshot by 15 million dollars with that initial rumored 2 year 20 million dollar offer.

A 15 million dollar mistake on a 37 year old outfielder?

Chip,
I don’t think its the end of the World if Damon doesn’t come back but I think he does make them a better team. I think while Damon has declined as a fielder I think the extent of that decline is overstated by many people. He has never been able to throw and there are much worse LFers in the big leauges. I also think people are overestimating the production Johnson will provide in the #2 spot a little. He will be fine there but won’t be the threat that Damon was IMO and let’s face it, he gets hurt a lot.

I think Damon makes the lineup better and gives some security in case of injury. The Yankees will be ok without him but I think for one year he does make them better. I know many don’t agree and that’s ok.

I’m used to the climate here in the Northeast so for proper compesation I would consider a drive to the Cape to act as your agent.

LMAO. I’m not sure that this calls for you to be my second, Maine. It’s not a duel….yet. Of course, this may just be Randy’s attempt to get me on the ice, because he knows he can’t beat me on the golf course.

I’ve had the best golf instructor possible. Of course Orville Moody, the coward would never admit to it. I still blame him for getting me sent to Vietnam.

As far as having a “winner” in their lineup, that’s not their focus right now.

They know they aren’t winning anything this year, negating that need.

Their focus is giving their young everyday players and young arms every opportunity to play and gain experience.

They aren’t interested in adding a veteran player to upset that plan.

The Orioles have no interest in paying Johnny Damon. Nolan Reimold, Adam Jones and Nick Markakis will be their OF (hopefully in their view) for years to come.
