Thoughts?  I don’t mind the loss of Henry, and Smith was decent but nothing too special.  Great deal for a playoff push.
Since Gameday Chatter is going bonkers I figured I’d post here.

Whoever says that it wont make a difference is smoking something.

Cory lidle is a solid pitcher… ten times better than Jaret Wright. I see him doing well in the postseason. He’s clearly a second half pitcher from his stats.

AND BOBBY ABREU! Everyone goes on about how he hasnt hit many home runs and all that junk but for one thing he’s a gold glove outfielder, he hits for average and is clutch! Yes CLUTCH!

Not sure Aaron Guiel is.

Also they do have a lineup they could use when everyones healthy: 

1.Damon CF
2.Jeter ss
3.Abreu Rf
4.Giambi 1B
5.A ROD 3b
6.Matsui LF
7.Sheffield DH
8.Cano 2b
9.Jorge C

Melky will get in virtually every day to give different players rest. I put Matsui ahead of Sheffield so A Rod has protection from Lefties Cano is ahead of Jorge.
