Reed's my preference, simply b/c i think he's undervalued right now after a rough first year in the majors - CLE seems to want the world for Crisp, who's talented but not that talented. we'll see which way they go. great work on the blog, BTW. love it. totally agreed, Mike. i’m not willing to part with Marte to do either deal – as some rumors have suggested the Sox will do – but let’s get someone young and cheap and at least defensively capable out there.

Reed’s my preference, simply b/c i think he’s undervalued right now after a rough first year in the majors – CLE seems to want the world for Crisp, who’s talented but not that talented.

we’ll see which way they go.

great work on the blog, BTW. love it.

They can then re-invest that savings in pitching. In a couple of years the Yankees will have another guy in his mid-30s who can't throw tripping over himself in centerfield and a contract that forbids them from moving him.
