Jay MillerWhen you consider that the Yankees will lose Boone's salary, Soriano's salary and no longer have Hensen's salary, along with what Texas is picking up and with the $1 million A-Rod salary deferral, the Yankees are increasing their payroll by only $750,000 this season for A-Rod. This is not a great deal---it's a steal!
John is exactly right about Soriano--he has a poor batting eye and is a below average fielder. Besides which, he is only signed to a one year contract so maybe in a season, if he imprioves his play, the Yankees will resign him as a free agent.
