I could see Milton succeeding but not 20 wins or even 15. He'll be the Jon Leiber of this team; 14 wins or less.
Wright will be the 2005 version of Jeff Weaver in pinstripes. 3 years at $21M is completely ridiculous for Wright. This is Cashman's final year -- maybe on earth.
(I'm beginning to love the Yankees' front office. There has to be a Sox fan in there somewhere.)

The only thing I can figure on the Polanco front is they were scared off by the Phillies offering arbitration. Of course, when have the Yankees ever worried about losing a draft pick or two?
