Yankees confirm. Big Stein called for the full court press this morning with the deadline right around the corner. Adding Grace allows the development of Mike Lowell to slow down a bit and gives us a proven veteran with a reliable glove for the home stretch and beyond.

Approved. Looks good guys.

need to see Yankees financials please ... $10 mil / yr is quite an undertaking ... I’m sure Yankees have it but just need proof

 

[clutchology101]

approve as long as the Yanks have cap space for Mark

 

[majesty95]

The Yankees have $15M available clutchology101 woodsmall12

I'll approve. I dont love a 5-for-1 deal but not of the prospects are star level potential so I think its reasonable.

 

[clutchology101]

works for me then

 

[woodsmall12]

Approve w that available space
