Do you guys expect somewhat of a rebound season? Decent lineup. Couple of down seasons in a row though, clearly on the decline.
.270/70/25/80?

Yuck. Not liking the fact that he'll be wearing pinstripes. And those numbers are way too optimistic.
I'd say it'll be more like .250/70/20/70

And who are you, the proud lord said,
that I must bow so low?
Only a cat of a different coat,
that's all the truth I know.
In a coat of gold or a coat of red,
a lion still has claws,
And mine are long and sharp, my lord,
as long and sharp as yours.
And so he spoke, and so he spoke,
that lord of Castamere,
But now the rains weep o'er his hall,
with no one there to hear.
Yes now the rains weep o'er his hall,
and not a soul to hear.

If he can stay healthy I think he'll have a very nice season. One of my leagues has a walk category so he'll certainly be on my radar.

From a fantasy perspective, nothing. From a baseball fan perspective, everything.

Youk is very ugly and awkward looking without a goatee. Thats by far the worst part.

So they actually found a replacement that is playing even worse defense on 3rd base and is even more injury prone than ARod. And they had to overpay for him as well

If the guy is healthy he should easily top 20 HRs especially at Yankee Stadium. He's a career .283 hitter. Your numbers seem to be more pessimistic than Farley's were optimistic.

Key,as always,will be his health.If he avoids some time off he could be a great option.He regressed over the years but we can't really know what's left in the tank if he doesn't play the whole season.I'll wait and see where he goes,would like to buy.

Any idea where he hits in the lineup? Could produce some counting stats if infront/behind the big boppers.

My guess is:
Jeter
Ichiro
Cano
Texiera
Youkilis
Personally I'm extremely leery on drafting him. He's held together with duct tape. He might be reasonably productive and if you can get him in the late late late rounds as a flier he might pay some huge dividends, but otherwise not touching him.

I will pass as well. He was serviceable at home w/ the White Sox but completely useless on the road.

If you like drama this is your guy to own. You also will have to have a computer friendly job to swap him out when he suffers through his usual 10-15 late scratch DNP with back tightness, groin tightness, quad tightness, hammy tightness, elbow tightness. #gettingoldsucks.

Well really they had to sign stop gaps to 1 year deals because the new Yankee management is obsessed with getting under the $180MM threshold in 2014. Not really an overpay, if they sign all these players to multi year deals they'd actually end up owing quite a chunk of change in luxary tax.

Over 3 games it was .417 / .462 / .833 for a grand total OPS of 1.295 he was out for revenge.
