An Early Christmas

If C.C. Sabathia and A.J. Burnett weren’t enough for you, the Yankees made their biggest signing of the offseason with an 8 year mega deal for $180 million to bring in slugging first baseman Mark Teixeira.  When you stack Teixeira with Alex Rodriguez and Derek Jeter, you have quite a formidable lineup.  It’s been a while since two hitters on the same team belted 50 homers, but there’s a distinct possibility that A-Rod and Teixeira could do it this year.

In the meantime, the Red Sox are going after Josh Bard and Javier Lopez, the Yankees have made splash after splash.  My bet is the Yankees have a ten game lead by the break, clinch in early September, and then skate to their first World Series win since 2000.

I got a sweet new baseball bag for my son for Christmas.  If you’ve ever checked out Baseball Rampage, you should do so.  To say they have a good selection of baseball equipment would be like saying that the Yankees have spent a little bit of money this offseason.  For those Red Sox fans who don’t get it, it’s called an understatement.
