Quick Question: Did Babe Ruth have an agent?

Some players ????? Most of them are out there for the money and who can blame them. Johhny Damon was offered $40 million in Boston and he took $52 million in NY. Where would you go ??? $12 million can buy a lot of loyalty.

I got a question, who the hell you want torree to play small ball with it certinly isnt jeter and damon cause then you might run outs on the board wen shef giambi and arod come up and run yourself out of an inning. The yanks will win base to base and thats the only way you will see the yanks play.If you want your small ball watch the NL very few AL teams unlike the Angels and A's and Twins ever really play smallball.

Then on the Bullpen why should he be sending farnsworth and rivera out everyday they will be burnt by october. Dotel coming back and proctor pitching well will give him the ability to be smarter with his pen, and the yanks havent had a solid lefty out of the pen since stanton in the 97 season wen they beat padres. For god sake give the man a lefty. Overall i think toree isnt a great manager but he does wat the yanks need him to do keep the clubhouse quiet and keep the team from long losing streaks and i think he is still a solid manager.

O and if the yanks trade melky im going to be really ticked off.
