Sorry my Redsox friends but how can you not resign Johnny Damon. I am getting excited now about this Yankee lineup. When is spring training !!!

Heard that this morning... wow

Who'd a thunkit?

Well at least he needs to shave and get a real haircut now, George won't go for the "missing link" look lol

[judge09]

He looks like he is 10 in the picture on ESPN.com where he is shaved and had a haircut.

thats what i think about the damon deal. honestly, good luck to him in yankee stadium. i believe the yankees overpaid for him. his arm will be severely tested in the cavernous CF in the bronx. but as far as that lineup goes, there is no sleeping on it. every single hitter has the ability to make you pay. yanks fans just better hope that cano doesnt fall into the sophomore slump that seems to plague so many good young players.

I wasnt too excited to see him in NY. I was hoping for Tori Hunter. But its a good move for the Yanks. They didnt have to trade Cano or Wang and they got a great lead off hitter and a fast CF. Granted he doesnt have a strong arm but its definitely a step up from the current state of Bernie. This is also a good move because it takes the Boos away from A-rod and Giambi when they go to Boston. Damon is going to be boo'ed like no other in that first game.

probably, make no mistake, i'm not a bitter sox fan, i know the yankees are getting a very good player. one of the best leadoff hitters in the game, and a pretty good centerfielder. i simply believe they overpaid for him. year four of his contract is going to be like bernie redux.

I'd be surprised if he stayed in ceter field in NY. They should move him over and let someone with better coverage take CF.

Gee, the O's signed Jeff Conine this week. Look out AL East, there's no stopping us now

Peter Angelos is a moron.

he'll stay in centerfield. he's going to cover more ground than either shef or matsui. and matsui was pressing too hard at the plate last year when they made him play cf. until matsui or shef are gone, he's going to give them the best coverage in cf.
