Not this season, that's for sure. their pitching rotation is even weaker than last season and they have the oldest starting 9 in baseball! Maybe once they move some of those old men they might start to compete with teh Red Sox but since teh Sox new owners took over in 2002 they have made all the right moves and left the Yankee in the dust. So much so now they have the Yankees chasing them in their philosphy of sticking with the young guys and spending wisely. Look at another brilliant move the SOX just made, they just signed Bartolio Colon to a $1 million dollar non-guranteed contract. The just just won the Cy Young in 05' and the Sox are going to take a minimal chance on him. When was the last time the Yankees did something like this? LaTroy Hawkins? HA! How much will that cost? 697861@blogcritics.org Mon, 25 Feb 2008 10:16:50 EST http://blogcritics.org/archives/2008/02/24/115322.php#comment-697860 Can they win it?

What, again? Haven't they already won the 'World' Series about 23,774 times? They need to let some other teams have a go for a few seasons. 697745@blogcritics.org Sun, 24 Feb 2008 16:48:00 EST http://blogcritics.org/archives/2008/02/24/115322.php#comment-697683 They're already selling stuff with Joba Chamberlain's autograph in SkyMall. For what it's worth. 697683@blogcritics.org Sun, 24 Feb 2008 13:15:21 EST http://blogcritics.org/archives/2008/02/24/115322.php#comment-697679 I don't think the Yankees will win the big one again for another 5 or 6 years. There are just to many other good teams out there. Plus, the Yankees have been very lucky. Well, there luck has run out for quite a while. Mark this day and you will remember. 697679@blogcritics.org Sun, 24 Feb 2008 13:03:18 EST
