ATTENTION ALL YANKEE FANS!!!
Alright guys. Now that we've went Christmas Shopping and got 2 Starting Pitchers, I feel like I have to ask this question.
Who should be our 2009 Opening Day starter? Seems obvious, but it isn't.
A) CC Sabathia- Our newest member. Arguably better than anyone in our staff. The fans wanna see how he does with his ridiculous contract. Oh, and did I mentionwe open up vs his former AL team?
B) Wang- Our proven ace. The fans are anxious to see if he can return to his 38 wins in 2 year form.
C) Joba- I just threw him out there cause of his popularity. I don't think there's any chance that he starts Opening Day, but we never know.
To me, I think we have to give it to Wang. He's been our Ace, and there is no reason why he shouldn't pitch the first game at our new house.

160 mil too much for CC....there's only 2 pitchers in baseball that are true aces, that is year in year out they are aces, not some years on, some yearsoff, that is Santana and Roy Halladay...
....as with AJ burnett, that's carl pavano all over again

He's got 2 years left.... 2009, 2010.
He'll be 32 next year, 33 during 2010 year....
That's 34 as a free agent.... with probably getting a 3-4 year deal.

ATTN TEAM YANKEE MEMBERS:
What are the odds of getting everyone to hit up a game this year (Being they still have $5 FujiFilm games)?
I'm good for some brewskis, some burgers, maybe some mary jane...

I'm definitely making my way back to NYC for some games this year in the new stadium
Not sure for how long, but no question I'm seeing some games this year.

I'm definitely in.
And I live 5 minutes from the stadium, so I'll be willing to pick up the tickets as long as I'm given the money.
Don't know if y'all trust me, though.

As long as you don't try and get at me asking for the dough like those guys around the stadium tryin' to sell you those boojie tickets, I can trustyou.
Edit: Last year I bought a 7 pack and 4 single games, and I ended up only going to 4..
Mainly cause of work and how I hate taking the train in.

I used to go to 10+ a year, but with work/school, I haven't gone as much.
I did hit a Subway Series game and a Red Sox game for the first time last year, though (we lost both
).
We gotta get something together, though. We say this every year.

I've been to 6 now.
If/when I come out there I'd love to go to a Yanks/Sox game in the new stadium.
I gotta get up & buy those tickets online on ticketmaster when they go on sale... I always forget, then they're sold out.

I know..And 2 of those games were the 2nd & 3rd games of the season
Plus, my little brother ALL OF A SUDDEN likes baseball, and I couldn't get any tickets where I was sitting, so I didn't wanna leave him behind so Iended up not going...
I do regret not taking him to atleast one game so he could say I was in THAT stadium
