RANDY JOHNSON & CO.

Dbacks improve.

Yankees improve for now.

Dodgers lose now, but tomorrow looks good.

This trade deserves it's own thread and not just part of a generic movement thread, IMHO.

it should be fun to watch him flop with the crank yankers.

seriously how the hell can the crank yankers still afford to pick up players with ass-rod's $250 million contract? i thought the salary cap was implemented to prevent yankee spending?

This is the problem of a luxury tax. As long as you can afford it and are wiling to pay it just doesn't matter.

This is a trade that just strengthens the NHL owners point of view, the rich get richer.

The Dodgers are going to suck next year, and this makes the Yankees World Series favorites.

Aren't they World Series favorites after every off-season?

It seems like every off-season, people get all excited about acquisitions the Yankees make and go ahead and chalk them up as World Series Champions and since they've started spending cash the way they do, it hasn't worked out for them. So what makes this year any different?

I like this headline from FARK.com:

Randy Johnson traded to Yankees in 3 way deal. Steinbrenner quoted saying "It finally took a three-way for us to grasp the Big Unit, but now that we have Johnson, our holes are filled."

--Roger "Time?" Clemente.

Well, this is different because this is the first offseason the went out and got pitching. All the other offseasons they got hitting and more hitting and neglected their rotation.

Looks like they have Pavano now. So they probably don't care if it falls through. RJ is just a trophy for George, kinda like AROD. If you can't win the series you might as well get the guy EVERYONE else wants.

I would think Carlos Beltran is the guy everyone wants, rather than the "old unit"
