I would most certainly be willing to bet that Maddux has a better year than Lieber, based on some agreed upon statistics (Wins, WHIP, ERA - Run Support, Innings pitched, etc.)

<hr /></blockquote>

Nah, what would matter to me is Lieber's W-L. I would take you up on the offer that Lieber will have more wins then Maddux will and less losses.I really don't care about his ERA or anything else, because I know he'll get good run support as every Yankee pitcher will this season. Ultimately, I just want him to win those games.

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.

<hr /></blockquote>

Lieber who hasn't pitched in over a year would be better than Maddox? He's coming off a major injury. there is no gurantee that he will last longer into games than Maddox. There's no gurantee he will even be effective. Everyone, myself included, is penciling him in as the 5th guy, but he still has to prove he can get guys out again.

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!

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.

I'm almost hoping the Yanks sign Maddux for 2 reasons...

1) get that yearly salary over 200,000,000 of course...
2) Just to see AI do a 180 and begin extolling the virtues of Greg Maddux for us...

Christ! He's Greg FRIGGIN Maddux... you'd love to have him in pinstripes. No matter how you spin it... he's still GREG FRIGGIN MADDUX!!... Drop the act.

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

Having Maddux go for his 300th win would help take some of the media pressure off the other guys a little.

Or maybe not...

I see many people are obsessed with the Yankees and their spendings. Some of whom claim they're haters. Heck, some are obsessed with me. I'm flattered. No, really!
