On the down side, sodas will be 250 bucks each, but ...
The Yankees may look to spend the opposition into submission and are hardly averse to making fans shell out to help recoup those ducats. But -- despite my constant insistence otherwise -- they're not an entirely evil empire, as evidenced by the circa 1923 "two bits" seats being offered for the exhibition opener against the Cubbies. It's certainly a nice way to help fans check out the new stadium at a reasonable price during hard times.
And from there, one presumes the expected CC/A.J. blood letting will commence.

Can we just sign Bobby Abreu already??

BREAKING NEWS: Texiera a Yankee
Posted by: 10milliondollarzen | December 23, 2008 at 12:23 PM
Buster Olney is now reporting that Tex is signing with the Yankees for 8 years/ $170M+. The Angels GM has also indicated that they will pass on Manny. This is playing out quite nicely for the Dodgers. With the Angels and BoSox out of the running for Manny, it seems like the Yankees are the only real competitor for Manny's services. With the large outlay for Tex, CC, and Burnett it will be interesting to see if the Yankees are willing to spend big to add Manny as well. I would bet that they are not, and Borass will have to negotiate with just the Blue.
