Freddy Garcia

Freddy Garcia is considering joining the Yankees,Mets,Rangers and White Sox. He could reach a decision by the end of next week. I think this is interesting, he was known as a workhorse before he got hurt a couple of years ago. I think if this is a minor league deal for the Yanks then it is fine but i have a funny feeling the Rangers may offer him a guaranteed contract. He is a pretty good pitcher when healthy winning 118 games. His career record is 118-77 with a 4.07 ERA. That Era was bloated the last couple of years with the injuries. He is worth the risk, if healthy he can definitely be a productive pitcher for the Yanks. Kevin Youkilis has signed a 4yr 40million dollar extension with the Red Sox according to ESPN. David Eckstein has signed a 1 yr deal with the San Diego Padres. The Yankees stated that Jorge Posada will not participate in the World Baseball Classic. This is interesting since it is conflicting with what his father is saying. The Yankees of course could ban him from participating and will, so it doesn't matter what he says.
