Terrible, it was a fiasco. Stanton is completely right to be furious over this.

Just read that Samson told Buerhle and Reyes they wouldn't be flipped when they signed. What a wonderful organization..

He's just counting the days to Free Agency. I could see him in the pinstripes in a few years.

There is no such thing as too much money for the Yankees

As for Stanton, I actually feel badly for the guy. How on earth is Miami ever going to convince anyone to sign there after this?

The worst part is that I own him in my keeper pool and will have to suffer through next season in hopes that he lands on a real team for 2014
