wilson + darvish > CC
Slopeboy
You are talking about cost, aren’t you?
baconz11
im talking about spending their money efficiently to fill out the rotation. on a per year basis, it will cost a little bit more for wilson and darvish, as most of darvish’s fee will be in the posting, but what the yankees need is depth. with their offense if they have 2 solid #2 type starters it would be more valuable to them than CC.

Is exactly the deal I was thinking makes sense for everyone. 24 per year.

SIX years? God I hope not. We’re already a shockingly old team. Let the Red Sox pay the last $110 or so of that, in return for just about nothin’. I’d rather finish 86-76 for two years in a row now, than for four years in a row beginning in two years.

“The Yankees favor Yu Darvish over C.J. Wilson of the Rangers, according to Sherman.”
That could happen, but chances are they would, Only if…..

Do Japanese pitchers ever work out? Especially considering the cost. If I was a GM, I wouldn’t touch one with a 30 foot pole.

Depends on your definition. Nomo was considered successful but his career ERA+ in the majors was lower than Matsuzaka. In fact of Japanese starters who have started at least 20 games in the majors, well it ain’t a pretty list… one could make an argument that Kuroda has been the most successful.
There are a couple of relievers though who had some successful campaigns.

Nomo had some jaw dropping seasons.

Randy Johnson in 2001 was a jaw dropping season. Pedro Martinez in 2000 was a jaw dropping season. Greg Maddux in 1994 was a jaw dropping season. The last 5 years Sandy Koufax pitched were jaw dropping.
Nomo had a great rookie year, a good follow up, a sudden resurgence when he was 34. Nothing I’d ever call jaw dropping.

Look up his ’04 numbers. I think you might change your mind.
Jimbo
heh, well done sir.
Rabbitov
2.54 Era and 236 Ks in 28 games isn’t jaw dropping? I think your standards are too high. Would you at least accept “pants dropping?”

whatever
what stats are you looking at? By far the best japanese import and had some CY Young worthy seasons.

So do Julian Tavarez and Julio Lugo…

The Orioles think highlyof DiPoto? Lots of teams do, though, right? Including lots of teams whose owners aren’t string-pulling, deal-squashing crackpots. Unless DiPoto is assured he’s going to have a much freer reign than MacPhail ever got under Angelos, I can’t imagine why he’d consider the job. Not while other opening for non-lunatics are on the board, anyway.
Rabbitov
There aren’t lots of teams that need a GM and Angelos, like Danny Glove in every movie he’s ever been in, is getting too old for this business.
Jeff 30
The only reason I understand this reference is because of How I Met Your Mother. Also, DiPoto and Buck supposedly have a connection from AZ. Wanna go camp out the warehouse for his interview tomorrow with me Rabbitov?
Rabbitov
Actually, yes.

Seriously, with the spam comments, you raging dillhole.

No joke, I was about to post something about him being a dillhole before I read your comment. What the hell is going on!
