I don't want him as a Yankee.

Me neither! He's no Rivera.

It's good for the Sox, imo, because it gives him constant incentive to perform. They also seem to be reluctant to lock up any relievers to long term deals. Bard is waiting in the wings if they decide not to sign him within the next few.

The Tigers sign Justin Verlander to a 5 yr contract for $80M. Now the real question is how many years will he play for the Tigers before they cry poverty and have to trade him?

Next year...after they finish in last place this year.

I think longer than that, even with all the players they lost I still think they are better than Cleveland and Kansas City.

I could see the Royals finishing better than the Tigers this year

And if the Tribes young pitching develops...look out.

Doubt that. Royals don't have as good starting pitching, offense, or bullpen. I see the Tigers finishing third behind the Twins and the White Sox.
