YANKEES SIGN MARK TEIXEIRA TO 8 YR $180 MILL

[LA Dodgers]

no they dont.........they get a 2nd round draft pick and a 1st round sandwitch pick............the yankees only have one 1st round draft pick to lose and CC Sabathia is rated higher than texeira so the Brewers get the yankees 1st round pick and an additional 1st round supplemental.................angels get the yankees 2nd round pick and a 1st round supplemental...........Blue Jays get the yankees 3rd round pick and a 1st round supplemental (for AJ Burnett)........if yankees sign Manny ramirez and/or d Lowe than the dodgers get their 4th and/or 5th round pick and a 1st round supplemental for each..........

like i read earlier this week in baseball america, they might as well lay off their scouts for the year because they probly wont be needing them since they wont be drafting until the 6 round or so

oh ya angels should be fine next year and yes they will get a 1st rounder and supplemental 1st rounder from the Mets

Ya, the Angels will be fine. We lost some players, and I hated that Kotchman trade, but the rest of the AL West isn't going to pose much of a threat in 09 so Im not too worried.

See you in the post season...

^^^chuuuch!....and yea,kotchman wuz ok but he wasnt no tex and honestly i rather have morales in there ,hes young and ready to go day to day...he tore it up in the minors!...plus kotch was injury prone....theyll fill the spot nicely tho, i think they should of kept anderson for 1 more year or 2 then he should hang it up!...im worried if riveras leg is gonns hold up well!...hopefully they pull their head out their asses and get a quality player soon,heard they aint persude peavy yet cuz they calling south korea for that 1 cy young pitcher i 4got his name but word is he got sum nassty stuff!...we'll have to wait and see!..but its angels,sox or yankees in the playoffs for sure!!

so they got all the money in the world but that aint gunna give them another ring and plus yankees should be the reason for an mlb salary cap..i mean whats next the rumor that the yankees wanna go after Manny thats if the dodgers dont give hime a deal i mean shit i still think CC should have signed with the giants but thats imo well i guess money is a big thing especially theses days with the damn economy but that doesnt seem to matter to the damn yankees
