That's what I'm hoping....yanks maybe?

Interesting.....


The Yankees and Phillies were reportedly talking late into Friday night about a Bobby Abreu deal that might also include Jon Lieber or Cory Lidle.
ESPN.com's Jayson Stark has said that the Yankees could get a discount by taking the full contracts of both Abreu and Lieber, as there's been little interest in both players elsewhere. The Star-Ledger reports that the Phillies are now discussing second-tier Yankees prospects instead of Philip Hughes and Jose Tabata.

That would make the most sense, especially after what just happened today - heck, I'd take Lieber over Johnson in a playoff game any day.....

Lieber back in Yankee pinstripes might warrant a pickup by me and a lot of fantasy owners looking for a good WHIP and some wins.

Think maybe Abreau might hit a home run this year if he goes to Yankee Stadium?
Good move by Yanks management to go after him, would give the fans someone beside A-Rod to rag on. Great OBP, good steals, but severe power outage and a stiff in the outfield.
