It's pretty early but I saw others popping up and with the big offseason they had, I figured we could get this discussion in earlier.

Unless Tex turns it around this year his contract will rival Rodriguez' as a big waste of ca$h. -
Re: 2014 New York Yankees Thread
Yankees pay 52 mil for a decent not good .260 hitter who can field and run but hasn't learned how to steal bases. Below average arm too. Gotta be better places to spend 13 mil.Comment

Re: 2014 New York Yankees Thread
I'm someone who likes to look at Farm systems and Minor League development. And honestly, I think the Yankees have a top 15 F.S, Potential-wise, but going into the probable development, Bottom 10.
A really underrated prospect is Miguel Andujar 3B/SS (not top 100 but in general). Hit .323 in rookie ball last year at 17. Hits .333 against lefties and .319 against righties. His lowest split average was .281 on the road. Pretty good. Rookie ball can be deceiving, but its nice to look at for now. Most likely a project, but this guy looks like he'll be something.
Another thing I wanna talk about is the outfield situation. Mason Williams, Tyler Austin and Slade Heathcott. What do yall think we do with them? They all regressed with their level promotions, but I think they still have their specialty talents (Williams= Speed, Austin=Hitting, Heathcott=Hitting).
Last but not least, Gary Sanchez. The #2 catching prospect in baseball. I feel as if the Yankees made the Bryan McCann signing just to tell Tex this is his last shot. IF Sanchez makes his expected development in AA Trenton, then expect McCann to shift to 1st to make some room. IF Sanchez becomes a pure flop, Tex has survived and McCann stays at backstop.You Look Good, You Feel Good. You Feel Good, You Play Good. You Play Good, They Pay Good. - Deion Sanders

Solarte is off to a hot start this spring. Hitting .800 with a pair of dingers. If he keeps it up he could maybe make the team as a bench middle infielder.

I hope Solarte makes the roster this year. Someone who can be a utility player especially with Jeter and Roberts injury history at this point, is really welcomedYou Look Good, You Feel Good. You Feel Good, You Play Good. You Play Good, They Pay Good. - Deion Sanders

Pineda is really dominating this spring. In my eyes, that 5th spot is his to lose.You Look Good, You Feel Good. You Feel Good, You Play Good. You Play Good, They Pay Good. - Deion Sanders

Pineda is going to prove those that supported the trade right.
He's been pitching great.

Yup, I'm excited. Really excited to see this pitching staff, if Pineda and Tanaka turn out to be the real deal it could be something special.
And I'm not as worried about the offense as some. 2b and 3b are going to be weaknesses, and Teixeira and Jeter are question marks, but it seems most of the experts are just assuming worst case scenario for both of them. Rest of the lineup should be solid.
Will be a very competitive race in the AL East, as usual.Originally posted by Jay BilasComment
