say it ain't so

this is pretty much the worst way this situation could have played out. it's bad enough for Damon to remain in the division, but to have crossed to the evil empire? was it really so hard to offer him a competitive four or five year deal, especially given the scarcity of the market? turning Bernie Williams into Johnny Damon? genius. Manny and David Wells still want out, Theo's long gone, and now this? 2006 looks to be a loooooong season...

Damon Leaves Sox for Yankees

BOSTON -- The Red Sox knew they could be in the market for a new center fielder to start the 2006 season, but that didn't lessen the shock late Tuesday night when Johnny Damon signed a four-year, $52 million deal with the New York Yankees. [mlb.com] [espn.com] [si.com]
