on the flip side of the coin mariano has done alot more than many recent yankee pitchers including ones that are so overpaid

its a tuff nut to crack but i think cashman may not what hes doing but maybe not...to be continued


The problems I have with this argument are:

a.) The Yankees have no cash concerns; this whole idea of fiscal responsibility is crap. It's nonsense.

b.) Mariano shows no signs of slowing down, their hesitant to sign him; Jaret Wright never finished a season off the DL, and they give him big money.

The Yankees are being retarded right now, and trying to save money on Mariano Rivera is pointless when you look at how stupid they have been in the past 4 or 5 years with their cash.
