Yankees Name Hughes Fifth Starter
Phil Hughes was named the Yankees fifth starter Thursday while Joba was shuttled back to the bullpen to start the year. Is this Hughes' year to break through and is it time to give up on Joba as the future ace of the Yankees?

MLB: Yankees Ink Randy Winn
In an interesting turn of events the Yankees opted to sign Randy Winn to a one-year $2 million deal to compete for one of the corner outfield positions effectively ending any slim chance Johnny Damon had to return to the team.

MLB: The Yanks Officially Out on Damon
It would appear as though Johnny Damon's days in New York are officially over as Brian Cashman said Tuesday, "His abilities exceed my physical ability to keep my finances afloat." It would also appear that the Yankees are holding steady to the Steinbrenner's pledge to cut this year's payroll.

MLB: Yankees Deal for Javier Vazquez
The New York Yankees have acquired Javier Vazquez and Boone Logan from the Braves for Melky Cabrera, Mike Dunn, and $500,000 in cash. It is an interesting deal for the Yankees, to say the least, and I am kind of torn on whether it is a good move for them or not.

MLB: Are the Cards the Only Team Negotiating With Matt Holliday?
Matt Holliday is widely considered the top available free agent this winter yet we have heard very little about teams negotiating with Holliday's agent Scott Boras. Is it because of Boras' outlandish claims that Holliday deserves a contract on par with what Mark Teixeira got from the Yankees last year, or, is it because the big market teams like the Yankees and Red Sox are not in the market for a player of Holliday's ilk this winter?
