Anyway, you know that the Yank's are gonna be shopping for a CF in the offseason, and I think Juan Pierre is gonna be their guy. This way the Yank's have a true leadoff man with a ton of speed and a good arm.
And they can easily alternate between Tino and Giambi for DH/fielder, obviously Tino being the better fielder. |

Here comes the Big Unit, lets hope he doesnt throw another Big Stinker...
On another note, awesome catch by Matsui. |

Juan Pierre isn't a FA.
I think between Boston and New York, the "loser" of the Damon sweepstakes ends up with Cameron. |

Whats Manny's future looking like with Boston? Do you think hes gonna stay there or do you think hes gonna move on? Because I think it will play a factor in whether Damon stays in Boston. |

This isn't the Mets fan in me talking... but I see Manny playing LF in Port St. Lucie come this March. How he gets here... no idea.
But I definitely see the Red Sox and Yankees with Damon and Cameron. Who has who, not sure. |

Well, Manny would probably be the last piece to that awesome team that the Mets have already. I think if Beltran wouldnt have been injured and it didnt take as long as it did for him to find his groove, the Mets would have probably made the playoffs.
If Manny leaves, I think Damon would lean towards coming to the Yankees. Boston's pitching is pretty much over and done with. Manny is their meal ticket and he could be gone. Next to go might be Ortiz, but since he doesnt field... the Yank's might extend a curtosy to him as well. LOL. |

| Unfortunately... Beltran never found his groove. He will next year though. And Manny wouldn't be the last piece. Billy Wagner and D'Angelo Jimenez + Manny would be the last piece. |

| Beltran is a much better player than Bonilla. |

True, but thats not to say Bonilla wasnt a superstar when he was with the Pirates, and when he got to the Mets he was doo doo. |

But they're totally different types of players. Beltran is a poor man's Bonds. Bonilla was... fat? |
