slats7 Posts: 96	This blogger nailed it over amonth ago: Note to Cashman; you don't get a young, healthy dominating starter in a trade for an unproven prospect, who has no position, without caveats. That player is made available because the team trading him knows he is flawed or injured, usually both. johnsterling.blogspot.com/search?q=%22No... "They don't boo nobodies." -- Reggie Jackson

Sportellos1 Posts: 18	Truly a terrible trade in our part. Out a young pitcher and not getting any production from Russell Martin. Have to say I'm a big Montero fan (as the picture indicates) and didn't approve the trade to begin with. But the Steinbrenner's and Cashman never called and asked me my opinion.............lol Campos is pitching well lets hope he s the real deal.

The Yankees, especially Girardi, would never have let Montero be the regular catcher. Russell Martin doesn't have much to do with this. Knowledge is Good -- Emil Faber

I can't repeat this too often: there is no evidence Pineda was hurt before the trade happened. None. Knowledge is Good -- Emil Faber

We could have had Darvish for only $10 million and he is a lot better than Hammels. what part of this not being George's team anymore, don't you get. Hal is determined to get this payroll under 189 million by 2014. He has been quoted as saying recently that he strongly feels that there is no reason why he can' field a qualtity competitive team for less than 189 million and he is right. The only way they target Hammels is if : 1-they miss the playoffs 2- get eliminated in 1 game playoff as the 2th w/c 3-the pitchers completely implode due to inability or injuries . Hammels also said he wants to get paid big time. That means 6-8 years at least 22-25 million and that is too rich for the Yankees, . NOBODY DOES IT BETTER THAN THE NEW YORK YANKEES

Searle Posts: 2,682	now I feel better, here is Miguel Cabrera on Jesus Montero (from FOXSPORTS): ".........Tigers third basemanMiguel Cabrera. “We’ve been following him for three, four years,” said Cabrera, a fellow Venezuelan. “He’s one of the best prospects to come from Venezuela. We know he can be a superstar someday.” Told that Yankees general manager Brian Cashman had likened Montero to a younger version of himself, Cabrera replied, “I wish I had that swing when I was 21. He’s going to be good, man. He’s going to be great. This guy’s got a chance to be a superstar in the big leagues.” He’s actually 22. No matter. The point stands: Montero is batting cleanup for a major league team, while Americans his age are prepping for final exams. “With that swing?” Cabrera continued, pausing to let out an admiring Hoo! with a subtle shake of his head. “He’s mature at that age. He looks to handle every pitch. He makes adjustments. That’s amazing to me. That’s something I didn’t have in the past. He already has it.”..........."
