One I can't understand. I mean, I think he'll probably leave after this year as a free agent anyways, but he still has one of the best bats in the major leagues. He's an awesome talent.

They need to get a younger catcher, who is better defensively and can hit the ball. They signed some 16-year-old prospect (as I posted earlier) from Venezuela ala Jose Tabata who is projected to be an all-star, but in the meantime, it would be nice to get someone younger and faster.

After the year Mussina is having (maybe a Cy Young?), he looks like he could go for another few years. Johnson is declining quickly, I agree, and could be toast after this year ala Kevin Brown, though he has been better as of late. But with Wang budding as a star, and Philip Hughes coming up the track, the Yanks should be good. Perhaps if Pavano could turn it around, they would be decent for a few more years...
