Yankees outbid themselves Give Injury Prone Speedy Jacoby Ellsbury a 7 year $153-169 Million Deal

[Lakers Offseason]

No hate For Jacoby tho. I'm sure if there was another company trying to give you a ridiculous amount of money for your services you will jump quick, no matter how good ya employer treated you throughout the years. Salute the Boy, he helped bring us a few Championships.

From an Orioles fan perspective, I don't like the fact that he's still in the division. He's gonna be good for at least the next 2-3 years if he stays healthy. But considering that the dude's game is all about speed, athlete's typically start losing that when they are in their 30's. Unless you're Darrell Green.

You guys got the most out of Ellsbury.

Yankees paying him for what he did in 2010 and in the playoffs this year

The Post season the only thing that counts.

This isnt the nba making the playoffs in baseball and winning a divison is an accomplishment in itself because of how hard it is with the least amount of teams out of any other sport that make it

The playoffs are a total crapshoot

Anyone listening to the last few callers on wfan

Don't ever talk about baseball again.
If that's the case, Trout and Bonds ain't shyt, because they have little to no(no playoff AB's for Trout) postseason success.

Mike's trolling them.
We're going to offer Cano 170 mil, but we don't want you.

People are claiming the Yankees say they still have enough money to sign Cano and Choo... Hmmm...

The Yankees have enough to sign the entire Dominican Republic breh, we're done when we feel like it

Are you kidding? Trout is how old, 22? You comparing that to barry bonds entire during the SF era?

Mike thought that Ellsbury was going to be lucky to get 100 million. Mike really doesn't know shyt. Ellsbury is getting paid because of elite defense in CF, his on base skills, the runs he scores, and bases he steals.

The two callers in a row were dope: one said Ellsburys better then Cano because he has heart and the next guy said Ellsbury was a great player because he was listening to boston radio and they compared him to Dom Dimaggio
