Who would YOU sign?

In your opinon, which pitcher would you most want to sign? I'm not going to include the big names because then the question would be too easy to answer.

Ted Lilly!

We need a starter and a Lefty would help big time. And also he has pitched in New York before and had success doing it. So why not, its a perfet fit.

I gave Padilla some thought. I like the fact that he had a good season last year with Texas and also isn't scared of hitting a batter when it needs to be done. The Yankees need some of that. But I went with Lilly because as a lefty he pitches to the bigger part of the field....Death Valley.

Lilly knows what it takes to play in the Bronx. We could use a southpaw.

Guess from now on I should make my polls a little harder to make a choice on...

Ted Lilly cause he has a nasty curveball and now that he is more mature and has developed as a pitcher he should do better in NY this time. He also is a consistant pitcher as far as Wins and Loses go.

Look at his stats last year:

REC 15-13 | SV 0 | ERA 4.31 | WHIP 1.43 and 160 K's with a .254 BAA

Good but if he had like 11 loses or so it would look better IMO.

How about Ted Lilly to replace Mike Myers in the pen? I know, not realistic. Just would be nice to solve the Farnsworth/Myers combo problem.

Not with his price tag. If we sign him to a four year deal to be a starter, I can see the Yankees maybe converting him at the end of the deal. Right now, it's just not going to happen: he wants to start.

Pettitte isn't an option?

Didn't put him on there because there is a chance he might not even pitch at all...
