River Ave. Chattin’

By Mike Axisa

The hot stove hasn’t quite taken off yet, but we’ve still seen more than our fair share of rumors in the last week. Frankly, I’d rather talk about the Yankees winning the World Series again, but whatever. Bring it all on. See you at 2pm.

Rose says:

Granderson to the Yankees?? Angels are inquiring about him for no reason like they usually do with outfielders they don’t need.
Hunter, Abreu, Rivera, Mathews Jr., and now Granderson…

One of the definitions of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results…

Rose says:

They’re starting to look like the Texas Rangers with their Outfield fetish…although the Angels have had one just as bad for quite some time I guess

 
Hey ZZ says:

I would imagine they are doing that because they do not want to resign Vladdy. Abreu would be the DH and Matthews would stay on the bench where he has been. It actually makes sense since Granderson is under a very affordable contract.

Rose says:

I guess. They probably could have gotten Abreu (as a full time DH) for cheaper then if this was their plan all along. But either way, I guess it works.

 
 
 
Mike Z says:

Would you guys like to see the Yankees go after Lance Berkman?

Rose says:

To be a full time DH?? The Astros would probably want to package him with Roy Oswalt too who isn’t bad…but in a decline and he’s never pitched in the AL, let alone AL East. You’d probably be better off keeping the prospects and re-signing Matsui on the cheap instead. Better bang for buck.

I’d like to throw out that this chat will be awesome, but even awesomer will be the open thread tonight. That is all I will say about that.

What would it take to get Josh Hamilton in Pinstripes? Perhaps Hamilton/Millwood for Hughes/E. Ramirez. Saves the Rangers $$ with Millwood and gets the Yanks a LF/CF to replace Damon.

Jesus H. Montero, no.

Your trade proposal sucks.

Un Named Yankee Source says:

Montero = too much, ….maybe include Cervelli. Do not forget the Rangers need $$ with the owner going broke, dumping a $12+ million #4 Starter is a good move.

My computer sucks. For the last three weeks or so, every time I try to get into the Friday chat, I get a message that the software won’t run.

Now I’m in a pout.
