Some Yankee notes from: It’s About the Money [2], Hardball Talk [3], and Lo-Hud (A [4] and B [5]), and Sports Illustrated [6].
Also over at SI.com, our pal Jay grades the Yankees’ off-season [7]:
Preliminary grade: D+. At a weighted average age of 32.7 years, the Yankee lineup was the oldest in the AL by nearly three full years, and yet they seem to have taken steps to get even older this winter while leaving significant holes in their lineup. Without a few more fixes — fixes that should be easy given this team’s resources, but which are suddenly agonizingly hard to come by — this may well be the year where age catches up to them and leaves them on the outside looking in.
