        <body>Montero (not OF) +Philthy Hughes OR Joba + another prospect + Melky - are you freakin nuts??? Do you know how hard Montero hits the ball? Do you see Philthy as Mo's protege cause I kinda do? Melky is playing better than Wells (of whom I am a big fan) but Melky is younger, faster and cheaper plus a little pride for a homegrown product that makes Robi better. Geesh dud Doc is nasty but we beat him last time the Yanks faced him and adding a bad 62 mill for Wells is plain stupid - good god man think before you type</body>

          <body>NOOOOOOOOOOOO. The Yankees do not need a third ace. The last team I remember with three #1 starters is the Braves and maybe the A's a few years ago. I forget how many WS titles did they win? oh yea 1. To win in the playoffs you need an ace to lock down games 1 and 4 and a #2 that has a good chance to win game 2 and 5 and a three that can hold their own. The Yankees already have that. They need defense, middle relief, and a number 5 starter. Use that Halladay money to bring in some OF help in off season. Or better yet allow prospects to develop lower payroll and have ticket prices at Yankee Stadium that I can afford.</body>

          <body>That was the Yankees back up option on Halladay....Oh well...   I still think that Toronto needs to trade Halladay, Wells and $50m to offset Wells $112m owed over the next 5 yrs to Yanks for Hughes OR Joba + Melkey Cabrera +  Montero (OF) + one of the Catching prospects.    Toronto would be able to relieve itself of $62million of payments to Wells and get the prospects for Halladay....
Its a Win-Win.   After the deadline, they can forget about anybody eating Wells' contract for them, and the number of prospects back - and quality - greatly diminishes...   Riccardi needs to get off his butt and make this happen.</body>

        <body>Can we look forward to you placing this same comment on all the boards?
That would be great.  I can't wait to read it next time.
Every time I read it, I picture Halladay putting on pinstripes, and I throw up in my mouth a little.  If there is a God, may he/she find a way to send Halladay anywhere other than the Wankies.  God I hate the yankees.</body>

  <body>&lt;p&gt;The Yankees are pessimistic about doing anything major now after losing out to the Tigers for left-handed starter &lt;strong&gt;Jarrod Washburn&lt;/strong&gt;, and will monitor the waiver wire to try to add someone after the waiver deadline.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Washburn had been hoping to go to the Yankees, but is OK with Detroit. The Yankees are seen as a team that may try to sign him in the winter, as are the Brewers. The Mariners love him, but the chances to re-sign him after trading him are unknown.&lt;/p&gt;</body>
