[07.28.04]wed.[11:45pm]
New York send Sabaston Sarzor to Anaheim, Anaheim sends Jimmy Fareplay to Houston, and Houston sends Kevin Cylnburn to New York! Cylnburn will put on the pinstripes and at age 23 will he become a future Yankee Great? They took Cly's big contract but they have said they may not keep him for more than this season. They just felt that the team needed an extra piece so that when they get in a game threatening jam like they did vs. Philly they could have a player that is the NL's single season HR champion with 65 help contribute to the Yankees 11th Championship in 11 seasons! Jimmy Fareplay is only 19 years old and will definitly be a huge role player in the team's future within 10 years. Besides CH age 34 and Kinns age 27 the next oldest is Tedd Worrell for a pitcher but for a hitter we have Rob Hordic and Eric Sefcikz both at age 22. This is a future playoff team. The whole roster is potential all-stars. The Astros will be in the hunt for the next 10 years if the players stay good and healthy. The Phillies should be up there but not as good unless they get some great talent that will be there in 5 years, however, your not here to win it in 5 years your here to win it now. Thats the theory for most teams but we think the Astros are more into winning it in years to come by builting a young powerful offense for several years of domination and also wanting to win it now.
Visit the MLB jr. Officals Page for the new Rule 1.19. You can find that on the main page.
