He may be the next Bernie Williams... (#5)

Yea your right in a couple of seasons he probably will be the next bernie williams, but the beauty of this is that the yankees have no long term committment like they do with guys like Giambi.  

If in 4 years he is batting .275 with 5 hr and 50 rbi's than the yankees can say to hell with him.  This deal is one of the smartest deals i have seen the yankees make in a while.  They get a good quality player with no long term committment.  

yep (#6)

can't argue with that. i'm usually really critical of the yankees, but you're right, he's got no long term committment plus they stayed in stride with their pledge to cultivate their farm system.

my beef is definately with damon and the red sox FO than it is with new york. i still believe they overpayed for him, but the yankees overpaying for somebody is hardly anything new. good piece if i haven't said it already
