Swan Song for Swingin’ Lovers!?

The Yankees’ contract with WCBS-AM, another one-year deal, expires following this season. So does Ma and Pa’s one-year contract. While all interested parties are talking about a possible deal, the radio situation is up in the air. CBS wants to remain the Bombers’ radio home and ESPN-98.7 is looking to take those Yankee radio rights away. Some Yankee moles suggest there are other interested outlets, too.

...Last season, we were confident Sterling and ...

At what point was it clear to everyone but Yankees' management that Rodriguez needed to move to DH? Hindsight is easy, but he did look pretty beat up during 2008 to me.

2009 worked out pretty well.

In what sense? For a mere mortal, sure, but it was Rod's worst season since he was a juvenile.

When your bajillion dollar man misses 38 games the year after missing 24, your FO just might want to note that trend.

Did you catch any of the 2009 playoffs?

Maldonado is a really good guy. It's horrible to make that kind of accusation without any evidence at all.

Many of us noted at the time that Jeter never offered to move off the position so that the better shortstop could play there. For the good of the team.

Why do you believe that Jeter would have come onto BBTF and told us about his offer?

The Yankees/ Redsox this year is so going to be comparable to the current Lakers / Celtics situation right...?

(I think Yankee will likely still be in play for the wildcard but that isn't saying much. then again the AL West now have 2 god awful team to beat up on which may make it easier for them to get both wild card.)

Sure. He was terrific. Doesn't seem he had to be ground down at 3B all season in order to hit like that, though.
