The Yankees have the resources to take on a greater amount of risk than most teams. A misplaced $5 million might seriously hamper a smaller market team, but the Yankees — and the Red Sox, as evidenced by Brad Penny and John Smoltz — can take on a reclamation project and hope for the best.

NYPost : As for Chien-Ming Wang, his agent, Alan Nero, said surgeon James Andrews cleared the righty to throw beginning on Dec. 1, and that he could be ready by mid-April or early May to pitch in regular-season games after shoulder surgery. However, Yankee doctors have not seen Wang and the team plans on non-tendering the righty rather than risk paying a minimum of $4 million for him in 2010. The Yanks...

But even if they do not pick up the option, Mitre is arbitration eligible and the Yankees intend to keep him, sources tell The Post.

While there is no shortage of talk about the Yankees re-signing their own free agents or making a splash for the likes of John Lackey, the World Series champions also have some decisions to make about the back-end of their rotation.

by Michael Appleton - AP "Yes, Lord?" View full size photo » The focus of last offseason, and of every offseason since Clemens and Pettitte bolted to Houston, has been pitching. It has always been pitching, it should always be pitching. So while all the Yankee talk I read and hear revolves around Damon v. Matsui, I'm not really worried about either. I'd make both of them an offer of...

The Yankees don’t have many immediate roster decisions to make as they head into the off-season. They have just one team option to consider, Sergio Mitre’s for $1.25 million, and they will likely exercise it. Only a few players are arbitration eligible, and of them most are either easy or painless calls. The case of [...] Post from: River Ave. Blues A New York Yankees blog Wang to check...

Since coming over from San Diego, Chad Gaudin has been a mini blessing of some kind when it came to a back end of the rotation guy. Sergio Mitre didn’t fit the bill and we all know about C.M. Wang’s injury problems this season. In 11 games with the Yankees, 6 of which were starts, Chad posted some decent numbers, and he was 2-0 with a 3.43ERA. Chad also struck out 34 guys, gave up 41 hits...

Could Yankees pitcher Joba Chamberlain spend part of the 2010 season in the Minor Leagues? According to Joel Sherman of the New York Post , that is a possibility . In addition to the starter-versus-reliever debate, some in the Yankees' organization wanted to send Chamberlain to the minors in August, per Sherman's sources. It's unlikely that Chamberlain, who's pitched well in relief in the ALDS thus...

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. – Amid the Denver Broncos' 3-0 start, one disquieting element has been the team's difficulties in short-yardage and goal-line situations. Fullback Peyton Hillis, who resumed practicing Thursday after sitting out the day before because of a blow to the head, said the short-yardage issues that cropped up during last week's 23-3 win at Oakland can be addressed with better preparation

On the last day of the regular season, all eyes in Yankees Universe will be on Joba Chamberlain in his one inning of relief today. I think its strange that they would try this out on the last day of the year, after all what can you really learn from one inning? However, its clear the Yankees must be at the very least toying with the idea of putting Joba onto the playoff roster as a reliever. We all...

Carl Crawford and the Rays are saying the right things about an extension, but the presence of B.J. Upton and rising prospect Desmond Jennings puts the Rays in position to trade either Crawford or Upton this winter. Crawford and Upton are the first pair of teammates to steal 40-plus bases since 1993, when Luis Polonia and Chad Curtis did it for the Angels and Marquis Grissom and Delino DeShields for...

This is tough to tab the New York Yankees as a team of destiny. They challenge for World Series titles year after year, their spending habits are often blamed for making Major League Baseball a plutocracy that rewards the big-market teams with wins and glory. They are either the definition of a classy, winning franchise or the personification of arrogant, humorless baseball-as-business thinking, depending...
