I was looking into something and he's obviously not looking for a big paycut...but I was comparing his numbers to Bobby Abreu's numbers (of 2008) and Abreu had a better season and signed a $5 million contract. Abreu had...

More Games Played

More Doubles

1 More Triple

4 Less Homers

Better Batting Average (by 14 points)

Better On Base Percentage (by 6 points)

 

Rumor has it that Cashman has $2 million to spend, but would probably go over for Damon. He should stop crying...accept $5 million...and move on to another run at a World Series Championship. At this age, he should just worry about winning. If the numbers are correct...he's made $97 million in his baseball career. Obviously more in whatever he may have endorsed. He said he wants to return to New York...I'm believe he truly means this...and he should just come back and help the cause.

Back in the day (if you read Ball Four by Jim Bouton), the Yankees would tell any salary challenged player "You can always count on your World Series share".................and back in those days..................YOU COULD

I think we've got that situation right now. I'm not saying it's a slam dunk, but the Yankees are the favorite. Come on, Johnnie. You "go along to get along" maybe the Yanks have a job for you when your career is done. Do the math. You can hit in a jetstream, or you can try at Petco Park.............................
