Let's hope Manny hits the FA market and we can snag him. He said he wanted to play in pinstripes. Let's make it happen. Trade either Damon or Matsui, and put Manny in left field.

Immediately it solves a lot of the offensive woes this team has. His defense, while below average, can't be any worse than Matsui's was with his knee problems.

I'm more concerned with our two albatrosses and how they'll play next year - Posada and A-Rod. As you know, I was vociferously against resigning Posada, and as it is signs are he may never play catcher again, which means we just inked a DH for the next 3 years. With Manny, it could help relieve stress off of A-Rod, because we know his fragile ego can't handle hitting with RiSP.
