EDB’S REPLY TO JIM BOWDEN’S IDEAS

Sorry Jim.  I disagree.  First, forget Josh Hamilton.  Despite the fact that he is always injured, if you think A-Rod has become the Lightning Rod, Josh Hamilton, would not handle NY.  He would become the News Media baby.  Michael Borune is a nice thought.  But, he is coming into his own at age 30.  Would he do well in the A.L. East?  Look at Carl Crawford in Boston, (even though Carl had played in the A.L. East.)  Kyle Lohse had a nice year for the Cardinals, 16-3 2.86.  He is a National League pitcher and who knows how that translates to the A.L.  The Yankees, like them or not have Phil Hughes, Ivan Nova, and Michael Pineda, all young and under contract.  Finally, Anthony Redon, does not look like much to me.  He did not hot for power or average for the National’s afiliates (are you working for the Nationals.)  The Yankees can get a lot more for Curtis Granderson, as bad as he was (low average, too many K’s) in 2012.  Sorry Jim,  your ideas do not work!
