Nick [Go Pens] asked in SportsBaseball · 1 decade ago

How will the Yankees retaliate now that Adrian Gonzalez is going to be in Boston next year?

Obviously Cliff Lee is the first move, but will the Yankees get Zack Greinke as well? Will they also go after another like Werth/Crawford?

Personally I can't stand the Yankees but it's interesting to see who they throw money at every year and who doesn't live up to the contract... Mostly all of them don't.

    They're going to get Lee. The Yankees are huge spenders, but I don't think that even they will be willing enough to sign Cliff Lee, re-sign Jeter and Rivera to big contracts, AND sign Crawford/Werth or trade for Greinke in the same offseason. They will get Lee, but there are too many other potential suitors for Werth/Crawford/Greinke. Crawford and Werth will go to the Angels and Sox respectively, and Greinke is a toss-up. He could go anywhere. The Yankees have a much better chance at getting him than anyone else, but they would probably have to be willing to give up Montero.

    I agree. If you're gonna give someone a huge contract, don't give it to guys like Burnett... even before that deal, he was very overrated... 4+ ERA does not warrant a massive contract.

    With Yankee Fans spitting on Lee's wife last year, I don't EVER see him going there. Greinke Doesn't want to play in NY. Crawford and Werth are going elsewhere. I see them doing some small moves but they have just spent a bunch of money on over-rated, old players.

    The Yankees' Christmas list:

    1.) Cliff Lee

    2.) Zack Greinke

    3.) Carl Crawford

    4.) Jayson Werth

    Oh yes, two of those will happen.
