In addition, I'd like to see the Yankees get Gagne before the Red Sox do. With Papelbon moving to starter (which, imho, is a huge mistake, I project that he'll get walloped), and Foulke gone, they need a closer.
And the Yankees need a better set-up man than Kyle Farnsworth, especially if they can't get Villone back.
I agree. I was talking to a friend about this this past week that if the Yanks took the gamble on Dotel this past season, why not Gagne? And if boston signs Gagne, why not take the chance with Foulke? I agree, they need a new set up man and his name is NOT Kyle Farnsworth. As for Villone, I'm sorry to see that he rejected arbritation and hopefully he'll resign with the Yanks (he was GREAT during the first-half of the year and just got overworked in the second-half).
Also, thanks for the Matsui article DJ (glad to see you back sir)!
