I just realized I hadn’t written over here a in while. Not that I haven’t been busy, because I’ve been doing some work over at the Yankees History site. Some of it you won’t see though because I’m trying to get a jump on all of the diaries.
There are some random pieces of news that are worth mentioning though. Bernie Williams still hasn’t agreed to take the Yankees minor league offer with the spring training invite. You have to hand it to Bernie because he was so good for so long. It’s hard to hang it up. I’d love to see him retire as a Yankee though.
Also, A-Rod was asked whether he’d opt out of his contract after the 2007 and he was noncommital. No surprise because he doesn’t want to show his hand. I wonder if the Yankees will try to deal him to a team where he’d want to play to get something out of this and the Yankees would have some control over where he goes. My guess is though, the Yankees win the 2007 World Series and he sticks around. He’s still a favorite to win the AL MVP so the fans will probably turn around on him once he turns things around at the plate.
