The following is a post from sometime Yankeeist contributor Scott “Skip” Kutscher. Skip’s last piece for Yankeeist was about The Tiger Woods Fiasco.
It seems more and more — with the possible exception of a few minor deals — that the Yankee roster is set for the season.
From Jeff Passan of Yahoo! Sports:
Two winters ago, Mark Teixeira, the top free agent on the market, listened to Baltimore’s offer and scoffed at it. He ended up signing with the New York Yankees for $180 million, and Baltimore, as usual, played second fiddle..
“We were legit on Teixeira,” MacPhail said. “If [...]

With the offseason slowly drawing to a close, it looks like the Yankees were in fact serious about maintaining a modicum of fiscal responsibility. However, some have suggested that Brian Chasman is just saving his bullets for next offseason, when there is a class of free agents [...]
And another one bites the dust.
How many realistic suitors now exist for Johnny Damon? The only other team I’ve heard come up in connection to Damon of late is the Braves (I know the Giants are in the mix too, but I haven’t read much if anything [...]

The following is a post from sometime Yankeeist contributor Scott “Skip” Kutscher. Skip’s last piece for Yankeeist was about his favorite Yankee team.
You may have read recently that Joe Mauer is looking for a contract extension before opening day, or he will enter [...]
To the surprise of no one, the Yankees are officially in the Roy Halladay sweepstakes. Of course, it’s unclear whether this is just a smokescreen to drive the price up for other teams. I imagine the Yankees and Blue Jays will exchange names, and if turns out Joba Chamberlain [...]

Mauer, the first catcher to lead his league in batting average (.365), on-base [...]
6:07pm can’t come soon enough. While we’re waiting around, we may as well take a quick look at the Yankees and Twins regular season matchups in 2009. Not that this tells us anything whatsoever about what will happen in the postseason, but hey, we’ve still more than four hours until [...]
