Our pitching really worries me....again. Obviously we got AJ and CC, but after that it's like I think Pettite got another good season left in him. I dunno what Wang will be. Joba and Hugues are ???? as Starters.

If we do anything this year, it will be for a pitcher and an outfielder.
It's an "I'll believe it when I see it" kind of thing but most seem to think the Yanks aren't willing to take on another huge, long-term, mega deal. Not so much a budget thing, but A-Rod, Teix, and CC all are getting raises (explains why their payroll was actually LOWER this year than '08) plus their are all signed through like 2015, 16, 17, etc.

Plus if Mo has a great 2010 he might decide to keep going...and Jeter's deal ends after 2010 and he has many great years left in him so he could charge the Yanks whatever he wanted.

That beiung said, Holliday has said the Yanks are his top choice, with the Mets being second. So if anything I could see the Yanks being used as a means of getting the Mets to pony up a 7th year.
