Some people are like Slinkies, they are not really good for anything but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.

Also, apparently CAA's biggest clients have a trend of signing extensions before hitting free agency, obviously far more so than Boras clients.
We'll see, but I can't see this as anything but a positive for the Yankees chances.
ETA: This doesn't hurt either:
@DanBarbarisi: Interesting things to note: Cano’s new agent @bvanwagenen has the old Yankee Stadium facade in his Twitter background picture….Last edited by TopChuckie; 04-02-2013, 11:57 AM.Some people say winning isn't everything. I say those people never won anything.

Originally posted by B-Fly View PostAnything other than a last place finish in the division this season would be a pleasant surprise for this Yankees' fan. I'm not as comfortable with the Yankees' pitching as some, and the hitting is probably going to be terrible for a while.
- CC is an ace, but let's face reality, he's not close to the level of a Verlander/Kershaw/Strasburg/Felix etc. He's also a poor post-season performer. And he's also 33.
- Kuroda is a fine #3, but is pushing it as a #2. He's also 38.
- Andy Pettitte is 41 years old, was retired for a full season, and can't be counted on to pitch a full season. 'nuff said.
- Phil Hughes is completely unreliable and inconsistent.
- Ivan Nova is terrible.
- Mo is coming off the first major injury of his career and is almost 44 years old.
Robertson is a great setup man, but the rest of the pen is made up of no-name shlubs, and Joba.

Nunez left today's game after getting hit with a pitch. Not sure where he got hit (arm? chest? hand?) but it sounded really bad. Jayson Nix would take over at SS, and the Yankees don't even have a backup SS on the 40-man.
