For example, Yankees sent out a celebration letter after the victory of arbitration. When Wang was an ACE of pitching staff no matter you agree with or not, Yankees front office and players should not speak out loud how much they need an ACE to lead the pitching staff. I believe some of misunderstanding may result from different cultures.

Based on the current economy and the injuries has suffered the past two seasons, I understand the concern Yankees have. I agree with the move of not making long-term commitment.

I think money is not the an issue in Wang’s case. But, I don’t think Wang will stay with Yankees if Yankees is only willing to give him minor league deal.

As for playing time, Yankees fans demand victory more than fans of another teams. Basically, Wang won’t have the chance to recovery from injuries slowly. When Wang pitch poorly for the first time of 2010 season, he may not get another chance to start. You can just take a look at what happened to Wang after three terrible starts of 2009 season. In my opinion, Wang was not healthy the whole 2009 season.

2.Be a Brewers, CMW would raise Service Time for qualifications of FA, money not concern issue.

3.IF CMW has good performance @ Milwaukee,Taiwanese fans will focus at Brewers not Yankees anymore.

Are you referring to more than the Yankees choice of going year-to-year with his contracts, rather than signing him to a long term deal? Or the arbitration issue? If there’s more than this, share it with us if you like.

He has shown an injury history throughout his young career, as much as he’s shown promise. You can’t really blame the Yanks for not committing themselves, long-term, to someone who may or may not play intermittently during that time.

Personally, I think he’s great, and I hope he stays with the Yankees. Also, if he does recover and proves he can stay healthy for the latter half of next year and 2011, I’m sure he will get the contract he deserves from the Yankees.

Your concerns about playing time I think are unfounded. This team had him as their ace for two full seasons, and went into last year with him in that role. The Yankees know full well what they have in Wang, and why he’s so valuable. If he does indeed recover, and is healthy enough to pitch in the major leagues, he will be the Yankees #3.

Also, while the Yankees do prefer power pitchers, and are leaning that way, a hard groundball specialist is just as valuable in Yankee Stadium.

Anyway, I hope you’re wrong about him not coming back.

Now, the important stuff: I know a really easy way for you to become a citizen of the U.S., where you can closely follow the happenings of Wang. Fair warning, it will involve hair dolls—bring a good brush.

79-90. That’s Snyder’s record since he took over in 99. It’s a far cry from the body of work Davis built in his early coaching/ownership career.

The only true similarities I see is that they are two rich men with big ego’s that like to spend money and really want to win.

(fighting the urge to make the obvious joke)

In Taiwan, we have quite a few successful people in all kinds of fields who are very famous around the world, such as Ang Lee, etc. Among them, we also have few other very successful athletes as well. But, I believe Wang means so much to Taiwanese than anyone else because his personality, his work ethics, his charity works, etc.

As long as he keeps fighting and pitching at least at average level in the major league. No matter which team he goes, most Taiwanese will follow him around and support him as usual. In fact, Wang just get a new big sponsorship deal from one of his biggest sponsors, Acer, few days ago. Acer not only pays Wang the same amount of dollars as previous years but also promise to let him leave earlier for rehab without making ads for them. In the past two seasons, Wang still gets quite few endorsement deals even though he was injured most of time.

Furthermore, more and more Taiwanese hopes Wang chooses to leave Yankees. Most of Taiwanese understand baseball and the business side of baseball. Believe me, most Taiwanese expect much more out of Wang than any Yankee fan. Many Taiwanese just feel Yankees front office don’t show enough respect to Wang. many of them hopes Wang not to keep saying how much he wants to stay with Yankees because that may decrease his leverage.

For me, I have mixed feeling regard of Wang’s situation. I know many pitchers can not come back from shoulder surgery. However, I hope he stays because you never have enough pitching. Any pitching staff can be looked terrible when they suffer one or two injuries. Even if Wang comes back at 50% of his 2006-2007 form, he can be a good enough no.4 or no.5 starter.

But, I don’t think Wang will be back. First of all, at this moment, Wang needs playing time to reestablish his value. Small market teams can fill that bill. Secondly, I think one of 30 clubs will give Wang a major league deal and is willing to gamble on him. Thirdly, Wang may have some hard feeling toward to Yankees front office because the way they treat him even though most Asian don’t express their feeling much. Fourthly, Wang once says he like the life style of Seattle, LA, etc. Fifthly, Brian Cashman and his front office staff express more than once how much they like to have power and strikeout pitchers on Yankees staff. Lastly, I believe Wang can accumulate service time if he gets a major league deal somewhere. At the end of 2009 season, it sounds Wang knows Yankees don’t want to have him back when he was interviewed by Taiwanese reporters.

It’s interesting to see how the things turn out. Hopefully, Yankees can work out a deal with Wang because Wang wants to stays. Wang once says Yankees is a great team and the only team he has played for.
