Cano you Cano in Kalamazoo?




Wither Robinson Cano?

He is the biggest star on the Yankees right now and the best player by far. All of the veterans he played with are gone or injured. Jeter. A-Rod. Teixeria. Granderson. Posada. This is his team now.

He is a free agent and wants seven years at over 20 million per year. I just don't think the Yankees should pay that. Now he is an original Yankee in that he came up through the farm system. He is an All-Star. But now is his chance to take the team in his hands and make it his. He needs to be a leader like Jeter. Or put up big numbers like A-Rod. He has done neither. He is a non-factor. Let him go somewhere else for that money. If the Yankees are really worried about the luxury tax lets spend the money on pitching.

Whenever Robbie hits a home run the Yankees radio announcer John Sterling says "ROBINSON CANO DONTCHA KNOW!" 

Well we know Robinson Cano. And a lonely nation turns it's eyes away from you.

Sign with the Dodgers buddy. You ain't showing me shit.

They'll sign him.

Cano is a singularly unexciting player. His numbers are good but there isn't an ounce of spark in him. A team doesn't congeal around his type. What is he, 30? If the Yanks sign him for seven there's a good chance they'll be stuck with an athlete in decline in the last 3 or even 4 years of the contract. I assume the A-Rod experience has burned the Yanks enough for them not to go there a 2nd time but whaddaIknow? In baseball it's unbelievably hard to keep a dynasty on top. The Yanks had a great run, a phenomenal run. Can they come up with another core four? The only way is to try as many young players with potential at as many positions as possible and keep doing it until they get the ones that click.
