- The draft pick surrendered by the Yankees when they signed Mark Teixeira (24th overall in 2009) turned out to be Mike Trout.

Ouch. LOL!

That's definitely rougher than a couple of our lost draft picks that could have been Colby Rasmus or Rick Porcello.

thats wasn't a good decsion lol.

thats why cashman gotto go

Had he not signed Teixeira they still would have lost that pick for signing Sabathia, and they don't win the World Series without CC.

valid point.

i don't blame cashman for the arod resign or jeter contract or the soriano deal or sheff over vlad.

i know the penieda trade made sense on the paper.

but teix a bust, granderson not looking to good.

letting martin go over 2 years, but then giving suzuki too years makes no sense.

i don't think cashman an awful gm , but i think he too trade happy with prospects.

i think yanks could do better

Hi Guys

Any chance USA can beat CZE and Canada in the WJC? Would be a great birthday present to me! :)

I'll say they beat Czech Republic but lose to Canada.

Odds they beat Canada are about 1 in 3 I'd say. I'd LOVE for it to happen!

C'mon Gibby steal me one ;)

I SEE fromcal went on a posting spree

So what's your Super Bowl prediction?

I think I originally picked Packers-Patriots, but now I can't remember if I picked the Packers or the Patriots to win it all. Either way, I still like my picks.

I picked Eagles haha oops.

Serves you right for picking the Puppy Killer's team.

It's odd as well, considering all offseason all I did was say he was ridiculously overrated.

Didn't someone start a thread about the NFL Season predictions at the beginning of the year? You are good at finding threads, right? I think it was in the General section, too.

Well, I am glad his team stunk, but I feel bad for Any Reid as I liked him.

I'm sure Reid will get another job swiftly, if he wants one.

Thanks!

Yup. I did pick the Packers-Patriots, with the Packers winning. I might just be right, but I hope not.

den and sf.

if den has to play ne, ne wins
