Hate to say I told you so, but...

AI Franchise - A six-inning man (and third/fourth starter) is exactly what we want from Maddux. He'll mainly be there to teach the young guys.

Exactly. AI don't act like Maddux wouldn't have helped the Yanks staff.

A rotation of Wood, Prior, Maddux, Wood and Zambrano would be as good or better than any in the league, including the Yankees.

Eh, I'll pass.

Yeah Jon Lieber is a much better investment.

Re: Rumor has it that Maddux is close to being a Yankee

That's typical AI. If you guys were to land Maddux you wouldn't shut up about it for a week. Now that it looks like you won't, he's a six inning man. LOL!

Most of us will gladly take him. Im not so sure well get him though. I do agree with whoever said that his agent might have been trying to create leverage.

What the hell are you talking about? Who the hell is going to get excited about Maddux for a week? I would have agreed if this was 10 years ago, but now that he's washed up? I'll pass. I seen him to many times last season, where after 60+ pitches, he called it a night.

Bk, yes, Jon Lieber definetely is a better investment. For a 5th guy, he won't cost as much, nor will he ask for his personal catcher and neither will he hand it off to the bullpen after 80 pitches. He can't possibly be worse than Maddux nor any other 5th starter.
