LOL. Sucks about the Yankees. Only team that can be crappy with a 200 million dollar payroll.

under rules a team can not sign more than x amount of type A players per how many A players are in the fa pool. This year you could only sign three type A, since they yankees have done this already, they CAN NOT get manny.

You can sign as many as you lose also. Abreu is a type-A I know. Is Giambi? You get 3, and then as many as you lose. So if Abreu/Giambi are A's, they'd get 5.

Now I'm reading something that contradicts that. It's confusing and no one really knows.

Shit, I did not know that. They would get 4 and be able to get Manny then...
I do not think Giambi is though...

Oh shit never mind Giambi is not one, but I Rod is.

Teix fine, I don't really care. It wouldn't be good at all if they got Manny though. Really wouldn't.

Does this Type A rule only apply to a team over the luxury cap?

Na, all teams.

Baseballs FA process is so complicated. All I know is Villarona will be the best player in baseball in 7 years.

I hope they get Manny too.
Then they can be the worst 300 million dollar team.

their team salary is not even at what it was last year after all these signings.
A lot of guys hit the FA market.

Makes me happy I don't follow baseball.
The Yankees are annoying because of the media around them.
