I do see what you're saying. But I think the free agent shit is what people really hate on.

As for Wang and Cano, they should be floated around since they are good, but are perceived by the majority as being GREAT. If Wang pitches the same way he did this year and STILL has a crazy low ERA, then he's one of the most unique pitchers of all time. But I really don't see that happening. An ERA in the high 4's is more likely than the 3.60 he had last year.

i would love to see wang and cano in pinstripes, i get the petite - jeter nostalgia from the making of those two. mediocre players only because there are other stars shining over them which in my mind makes them solid players even though cano's bat isn't proven and wang isn't a number 1 even on a team of mediocre arms. I think they fit well with the nucleus of the yankees. i'd only trade players that everyone said they were proven but failed when their time came. sheff and unit are good examples of high profile players who barely stayed afloat in pinstripes, yet no names like melky, cano, wang all seem to shine a bit more than the allstars. Jeter was one of those quiet youngins who proved himself on a field of established players.

maybe that's what they need. they went after too many prima donnas in the last few years. it's tough to make all that work. it'll help the yankees that the kids from the farm want to prove themselves in the bigs and that has helped them, especially last year when cano and wang were asked to play huge roles.

i wouldn't doubt that whatsoever, there is a nucleus there i see it and i think it's exactly what the yankees need. i didn't mind them unloading unit and sheff...i like cano, melky, wang, and proctor if cano holds the other half of the infield, melky starts swinging that bat, proctor slide into a jeff nelson role and wang stepping it up. i mean jetes came on between donnie baseball and wade boggs, posada stepped up after giradi/stanely era...

so if cano, melky, wang, and proctor step it up, they'll be the next nucleus on a field of established players

The arguement always used against Wang is that he doesn't strike out enough guys, and therefore is getting lucky when he wins games b/c the groundballs just aren't finding holes... yet. Inevitably, the groundballs find holes, the bloopers fall, and the pitcher is out of the majors.

However, I think this is def not something I'd use to describe Wang by. Sure he doesn't strike out guys, but then again, I'm not sure if he's trying to. He can throw 95, so he has the stuff, but he intentionally throws sinker after sinker after sinker to induce ground balls. He has so much movement and keeps batters off balance so much that he will keep getting groundouts.

Wang+Hughes+Sanchez = future

We shall see. I just find it incredibly hard to believe that a pitcher could throw 220 innings and strike out only 75 guys and continue to be successful. Has there ever been anyone like that in history?
