“and was a steal at what he wanted just a couple weeks ago”

2yrs/26m is a steal for someone who has 0 offers?

Are you going to compare this group of either unproven or proven part timers vs Damon. Go ahead, be sarcastic, you’ll be wishing you had Damon sooner than you think. He’s proven, had a great year last year, can play under pressure, and was a steal at what he wanted just a couple weeks ago. Cashman let his ego get in the way, it got personal, and the Yankees will suffer in the long run. I guaranty you they’ll be trading for outfield help next year and spend not just money but prospects to replace Damon.

Yankee brass would be fools to count on Johnson staying healthy for the entire season. It makes sense to bring in Thames as Insurance. The move costs nothing compared to another trade, and further depletion of the farm.

Players typically don’t lose their power at 32/33–in fact they usually experience a power spike. I’ll bet the oblique injury was a huge factor in his 2009 season.

With a lefty on the mound for the opponent, and a right-handed strikeout pitcher on the mound for the Yankees, Thames may make a fine left fielder. If Hoffman is what he’s supposed to be defensively, that is a tough choice.

the yankees will be #1 in scoring. But since they’ll only score 923 runs this year, instead of the 977 they’d have scored with damon in the lineup, they’ll be in big trouble. Except not.
