Yankees, Rangers out on Lee

Jon Heyman has the Yankee news. TR Sullivan of MLB.com has the Ranger news. It’s all over, folks. Sounds like Cliff Lee is going to the Phillies. -BK

RAB Status Update

Just a brief update for those of you who will see this via Twitter and Tumblr: RAB is still down. Apparently our host is having some difficulties configuring out firewall settings. As soon as the site’s back up, we’ll let everyone know. 

In the meantime, please be aware that we’re working to identify a better hosting solution, and we apologize for the downtime. As you can imagine, we dislike being offline just as much as you do. Thanks for sticking with us in the meantime.

The Ultimate What-If: Derek on All 30 Teams. I’ve been sitting on this one for a few days, but check it out. The guys at The Beckett Blog, the card collector’s magazine’s website, has put together a post featuring Derek Jeter in every single Major League Baseball team’s uniform. The one featuring the captain as a member of the Angels is my favorite for the shock value, but Jeter as a Met (with his head atop David Wright’s body) and Jeter as a Ray are terrifying too.

"It’s making it seem like he is greedy. He is not being greedy. He is going through a baseball negotiation like everybody else. It’s made him look like he doesn’t know what’s happening in the real world, and he is not like that."

— Tino Martinez, on media coverage of the ongoing negotiations between the Yankees and Derek. (NY Post)

Check out this footage from the mid-1970s renovation of old Yankee Stadium. Great stuff.

"

No one needs to get out a tin cup and help the Yankees. Money — earning it and spending it — is their specialty. If they see the value of giving Jeter a parting-gift contract that keeps the goodwill between historic franchise and iconic player, then so be it.

But it is going to stop there, right?

Because there is a faction of media and fans who seem more determined to make sure Jeter is taken care of than, you know, actually making sure the Yankees remain elite contenders.

Once upon a time, it cost $1 to park at Yankee Stadium. According to the Sports Illustrated Vault, the source of this photo, that year was 1966. Had the rate of parking risen only with inflation, it would now cost just $6.75 to park near Yankee Stadium. Yet, as we reported in late October, it could cost anywhere from $35 to $55 to park at the stadium in 2011. My advice? Take the train.
