Sabathia

Burnett

Lee

Pettite

Hughes

If you gave me this list of pitchers 2 years ago, I would have told you it's a future "All-Star" rotation group or a Cy Young list.

Lee will get somewhere between 20-22.5 million per. After resigning Jeter, the Yanks will have 5 players making in excess of 20 million per and a couple others just shy. Must be nice.

They really take the fun out of baseball sometimes.

I wonder if Pettitte will be retiring?

And there's little doubt in my mind there's already a pinstripe uniform in existence that is a perfect fit for Carl Crawford.

It's possible. IIRC, he's been on a few 1-2 year contracts with them. I would think it's either pitch as a Yankee or retire for him. He's not moving to another team at this point in his career.

Without a doubt!!!

NY media & ESPN (as if there's any difference between the two) reports [insert high profile free agent name here] will be signed by the Yankees this year.

The names and dates are all that changes.
