I don’t quite understand your attitude, Steve. We don’t know what afflicts George, but I’m not convinced that he’s lost his marbles yet. If he wants to sit in and say “sign Sabathia, let Giambi go, offer arbitration to Abreu”, why not?

If the lights are on but nobody is home, I don’t think he’d attend, and they’d certainly not be listening to him.

Big Stein wants AJ and Peavy? Those are two accidents waiting to happen! JUst adding high priced free agents will not make this team 10 years younger, gutty, grittier or hungry for a championship. The Yanks will become the personification of Yankees Inc when they spend gazillions on free agents and the Rays and Red Sox have young gritty players. ONe of the reasons the Yanks are in this position because George got rid of Zimmer(that was idiotic) and the Yanks went back to the big free agent (Giambi). They need to pick the right free agents (people who are not like AJ or Peavy) to bolster this team.
