ATTENTION BRIAN CASHMAN THIS IS MY HOLIDAY WISH LIST



I know that half of the things I'm about to ask for probably will not happen, either cause Cashman sometimes is just flat out stupid or because its just not practical but here goes.




#1, Bring back Andy. No matter what it takes. If you have to spend the holidays with him (Theo style)then go for it.




#2, Bring back Louis Vizciano even if its going to cost more than it should.(we all know how hard it is to find a decent reliever.)




#3, sign a top flight reliever. I would have loved Linebrink or Cordero but i will settle for Dotel.




#4, Swing a blockbuster trade. Either something like Kennedy, Melky and Tobbata/Jackson for Peavy and Adrian Gonzalez.


or the current trade that everybody is buzzing about for Johan.(if the Yanx add a Cy young type stud pitcher to the rotation it can do wonders to the team.




#5, Sign a big bat center fielder. I want Andrew Jones.(as i already stated that on andrews worst year he still put up comparable stats to Rowand and Hunter who had career years.)


now that hunter is off the market. If the yanks cant get Jones i will settle for Rowand.




I think that covers every aspect of the team. If all this goes down, then we are improving our starting rotation our bullpen and our everyday line up and our bench becomes outstanding.


Every one of these moves are all feasible. none of them are out of the realm of possibility.






Please Brian...I've been a good boy this year.

Sam #1 you should have asked brian for these things as a wedding present. #2 the pictures have been great but you couldnt find a picture of hanaka Harry for your jewish friends.
i dont think rowand is that great. i wouldnt get him if they cant get jones. i dont love dotel either he is to injury prone and i dont think will be elite anymore. Everything else i like.
Lets see what happens.
I didnt know Abie was such a speaker. that was amazing he kept going and going. we couldnt even pull him down. you can probably do seminars. yeah right that was your first public speach. that was your first public speach the same way max n isNT a party animal.
Last thing the present for sammy was awsome. Great Job Boys. Max N great job organizing the whole thing.

Unknown said...

thanks max.
Sam you forgot one major holiday wish:
GET A GOOD FIRST BASEMAN!!!!!!
( miggy cabrera said he would take first)

Unknown said...

and I agree max i don't want rowand!!

in an ordinary year, Melky can almost be rowand (Last year was a fluke for rowand): .280, 15-20 homers, great defense.

maxsutton said...

Aside for johan that miggy cabrera move would be first on my list.

Unknown said...

i'd rather have cabrera than santana. And no, i'm not drunk (still).
Santana will be 29 opening day.
Cabrera will just turn 25 in april.
The guy has hit like a monster at such a young age, with josh willingham protecting him.
I mean it when i say that this kid with decent protection and a winning team will be the best hitter in all of baseball. Better than Manny Ramirez.

maxsutton said...

After seeing what you could drink over shabbat and now reading that statement i really think you are drunk. He is great. but pitching wins

SAM I AM said...

I did address the first base issue. if the yanx pull off that peavy deal,Gonzalez is sick.

and Dotel is the best available right now. Even if hes injurie prone there is nobody else. unless the white sox are really shopping Bobby Jenks.

And max s i just put a pic of hanuka harry for you so enjoy.

btw if the yanx can get miggy for first base that would be insanley great. And max n your absolutley out of your mind going for great hitter over a dominent lefty pitcher.
Think about it...A starting pitcher has more impact litterly and mentally in a playoff series.

P.S. I want to thank you guys for the gift. it was TREMENDOUS

maxsutton said...

I told you it was tremendous. But sammy honestly even after avi blew it did you think it was that TREMENDOUS.

Unknown said...

no way!! avi gave it away? you never told me!?

Unknown said...

by the way kerry wood is available. also check this out sam i put a good idea up for the pen

SAM I AM said...

I was a s shocked as ever. I didnt know what to expect.

And max n, all avi did was accidentally say. "isnt it great that the boyz are chipping in for a gift.?" then u said "really thats unbelievable..then he said "oh shoot I didnt know you didnt know"

maxsutton said...

nO mATTER WHAT HAPPENED IT WAS tremendous. I would give Kerry wood the 8th inning. that could be great. i know he is the most injury prone guy in the world next to Pavano but if it worked it could be gold.

maxsutton said...

Isnt it great that we can always find somthing to bang Avi up about.

Unknown said...

breaking news the cubs signed kerry wood for one year, $4 million. there goes that

Unknown said...

i would have loved the yanks to give him 3 years, $13 million

maxsutton said...

max n on the ball

SAM I AM said...

general idea is max n's belly dancing mistriss

Unknown said...

you two are obsessed

maxsutton said...

thats great youhve to tell me

abie said...

i have spoken by both of my graduations but those were speeches my father wrote for me....this was the first one i winged on my own

abie said...

oh and sam max n is still talking about the thing i told u earlier...the whole way home...

maxsutton said...

For Relief Pitchers, I like
Jeremy Affeldt (age 28),
Latroy Hawkins (34),
Ray King(33),
Ron Mahay(36),
David Riske(31),
Matt Herges(37).

For Starters, I only want Pettitte back.
Replacements for Mussina if Pettitte not available:
Kris Benson(33)
Josh Fogg(30)
Jason Jennings(29)
Odalis Perez(30)
Kerry Wells(30)
Randy Wolf(31)

I like the platoon of Duncan, Giambi, and Phillips at 1B. They don't need Mienkievicz back.

Wilson is a good backup, and so is Molina.

There is going to be some tension this season in the outfield because Melky is the projected CF, Abreu in RF, and Damon in LF. Matsui is slated to be the DH.
That leaves Giambi on the bench/1B.
If they trade for a 1B, they need to either trade an outfielder or Shelly Duncan.

MSR said...

what ever happened to Michael Kei Igawa??

maxsutton said...

maybe trading damon is the best idea. after his good playoffs he still has value. then you can keep matsui in left and melky in center. persanoly i would trade any of those guys meaning Damon, melky, duncan,giambi.
I like the kris benson idea and that isnt bec of him. i bet if he came to the yankees max n would hook up with his wife before the allstar break. max n you sick adulter.

Who do you think i am, Paul Lo Duca? One g isn't enough for me?

maxsutton said...

no but i know there is no way you can stay with one for more than a month. and sam you are killing me i am really dying to know what that guy said.

SAM I AM said...

the comment i deleted was a link to a web site which had really dirty pictures of max n and the bellydancer at my wedding.Somehow somebody attained them and published them to the world. But they were like really disgusting.I never knew max n can bend in certain ways. hes more flexable then you think

maxsutton said...

i did not need to read that but i am happy that i did

MSR said...

Hanky "little big" Stein has opened up his big mouth again...acknowledging that Cash is in preliminary talks with Minnesota concerning a one Johan Santana. That gave me goosebumps.
He also said that the yanks have put their focus on relief pitching at the moment.

UNCLE HAIM said...

oh no so they are saying aloud that hey are in talks with minnesota...i find it hilarious that avi max n and you mike are applauding at the fact that rotoworld or espn reports that the yankees are talking to the twins...do u think that they werent talking with them before hand...i am 100% sure that omar has spoken with them almost everyday and trying to see what is needed for a trade,,,,did anyone hear about a mota for estrada trade until it happened...absolutely not!! so relax i know u need something big in ur division to get over the sox but dont flip out when u hear oh the yanks r talking to the twins...duh..... of course they are..and so are every team in baseball that has prospects and can afford to sign him afterwards...and finally...LETS GO METS!!!...the speechmaker has spoken...

abie said...

sam something is going on becuz i wrote that last post that says uncle haim and this is abie...weird?

Anonymous said...

Sam you continue to outdo yourself.....Brian i have been a good boy....to that I say SHAKE AND BAKE

SAM I AM said...

Who the hell is "Uncle haim"

SAM I AM said...

I just heard our own avi on kellerman and he got cut off too soon but made good points.
Good job avi
