Then Joe Torre will be available. Of course alot of coaches will do better just by having an owner that actually wants to win and is willing to open his wallet. -PhillyDude

Theres an article written from Gillicks comments during the days in which they acquired Conine, Hernendez and Moyer. It's written from the perspective of someone riding along in Gillicks limo on the way from Baltimore to Philly as apparently they had been down to the game to see him play and talk with Orioles GM. As the game went into later hours and extra innings, Gillick left but kept his radio tuned to listen to the game. After the trade was annnounced Gillick slipped and said to the reporter something like, getting Moyer, Hernendez and Conine give the indication that we're trying to make a run for it, and we did it without sacrificing any significant players. I hope that the phrase "the indication that we're trying" was a slip up and what he really meant to say was "acquiring these players will help us with our continued push towards winning the wild card that we've found ourselves happily competing for during these last few weeks". By the way, does anyone have a winning % breakdown for the phil in Bell to Moyer timeperiod and a post Moyer time period.? TonyG

Torre manages a team that has a 200 million payroll. My grandma could manage that team to the playoffs every year. They Yankees strength and weaknesses reflect directly on who they feel are the best available players in baseball. Obviously Randy Johnson has been a dissappointment. Problems arise when the Yanks overevaluate their players performances and also when after signing their players to enormous contracts, they are unable to trade them. When is the last time the Yanks traded a front line player to another team?. Can you imagine trading Alex Rodriguez and his contract to another team (other than perhaps the Mets or Boston) Tony G

Abreu? Yankee fans think Phillies fans (and management) are mentally deficient for eagerly wanting to get rid of Abreu. Not defending Abreu since he ain't a Phillie anymore, but if one more Yankee fan asks me if the Phillies and their fans are retarted...

Yeah, I just unofficially polled the Yankees newsgroup about their lineup next year. All but one is keeping Abreu and that one wants to trade him for pitching. I got no indication of them wanting him to leave town. There are several emotion comments about wanting Arod to leave, but if they were viewed analytically, they probably wouldnt' be happy unless Arod hit .340 and drove in 150 every year. He is realistically overpaid though. 25 million is about 5-8 million too much. But the true 'faithfull' Yankees fans seem to want to build up Rodriguez and not tear him down more. They think he will rebound if Pinella heads up the ship. TonyG
