Quiet Offseason?

This off season many analyst were saying the Yankees were being quiet and not making any big moves, like they usually do. Many people made a great deal about this for awhile, I remember seeing it on Sport Center ever day. I personally was not to worried with the moves the yank's front office was making because the team they already had was all around a good team. But actually the Yankees did end up making some moves, and some big ones to, which will help them greatly. Russel Branyan was sign to a minor league deal and will be at spring training in Tampa. Spring Training starts February 19. Branyan has the longest home run at Yankee stadium so were hoping he can do that while wearing the right uniform this time. Branyan at 36 is getting older but I still believe he has some good baseball left and everyone that puts on that uniform plays a little better. The Yankee's also sign a solid utility player in Bill Hall. I am excited about seeing Hall play because he seems very excited about player for the Yankees, he told the people before the Yankee's even got to. He posted on twitter #iwannaring, which to me gets me excited. Hall was signed to a minor league deal and a trip to spring training. The Yankees picked up three red sox pitchers this off season including Manny Delcarman. Delcarman didn't pitch last year which makes me a little nervous but his career stats are not to bad. I just hope he can stay healthy and perform, if he makes the team. Hiroki Kuroda is a big pick up along with Pineda. Kuroda will most likely be number two in the pitching rotation behind CC. His career record is about even but is era is solid, around 3.5. Pineda is another great pickup. This is huge and can wing the ball. He throws around 95 on his fast ball. People have compared him to CC but CC's change up is better. Our pitching rotation has made some big moves and is going to be tough to hit. The Yankees as one are going to be hard to beat this year and I can not wait till spring training to start. Let's Go Yanks!
