Get Ready For The Showdown

John Sickels released his top 20 Yankee prospects list today. Here are his top 10 guys, as well as his general comments on the system:
1) Jesus Montero, C, Grade A: I know that his position is up in the air, but I love this bat so much that I’m going to give him [...]
Chad Jennings spoke to Mark Newman recently, and came through with a wealth of information. Here are some of the more interesting tidbits:
Aroldis Chapman is arguably the most intriguing free agent pitcher still on the market. He might be this winter’s most intriguing available player, period. “Who knows what the price tag [...]
As it stands right now, the Yankees have a pretty damn good starting rotation. All three of CC Sabathia, A.J. Burnett, and Javier Vasquez could easily head the rotations of just about any team in baseball. While I think we’d all agree that Sabathia is the ace and leader of the staff, I think there [...]

Most Yankee fans remember Javier Vasquez for two things. Giving up the grand slam to Johnny Damon in the 2004 ALCS Game 7 that completed the worst collapse Yankee postseason history, and for not being all that good in the American League. Neither of these can be disputed, they [...]

Theyankeeuniverse.com will forward to theyankeeu.com for one month, and then this site will be the permanent and lasting home of this weblog, now called TYU: The Blog Formerly Known As The Yankee Universe. After several rounds of negotiations with Major League Baseball Advanced Media, [...]
The Yankees have long been considered an older team, dependent on aging veterans to succeed. However, as NoMaas notes, Brian Cashman has been doing everything he can to change that culture:
“We have to get back to doing what made the Yankees so good for such a long period beginning in the ’90s,” said [...]
From Buster Olney:
Sources: The Cardinals’ offer to Holliday is believed to be over $100 million.
I am sorry, Chris, but it seems like your hope for a Holliday miracle will not be fulfilled. I never saw the Yankees getting involved on Holliday, but as the offseason proceeded, it looked like he might [...]
The Dave Cameron article that we discussed yesterday has made the rounds, and Rob Neyer used the opportunity to make an important point about flexibility:
Yes, Holliday would make the Yankees better. Maybe a juggernaut, even.
But the only way the Yankees can fall into a habit of losing, someday, is by stockpiling [...]
