Baseball’s Savior

Well, this made big news in a hurry.  The Yankees are apparantly shopping Randy Johnson and the most likely suitor is his former team, the Arizona Diamondbacks.  I’ll give you two words, Conor Jackson.  If the Yankees trade Johnson, the deal should include first baseman Conor Jackson, who’d be a great addition to the Yankees lineup.  He’ll turn 25 in the middle of the season but he’s a good, patient hitter who you’d hope would see his power increase in the next couple of years.

There’s also a chance Johnson could find his way to San Diego.  As always, I’ll talk about it more when it actually goes down.
