As Derek Jeter continues his final season as a player for the New York Yankees, it is easy to contemplate what his next career move will be once the curtain falls on this season for him. One of those career choices people have speculated is that he could be a manager of a major league team one day. Jeter himself completely removed doubt on that possibility by shooting it down completely.

MLB: Who Will Replace Jeter?

by Steve Painter

Allow me to make one thing very clear: You can't replace Jeter. How would you? He's one of the greatest of all time. You can't just get the scouts on the phone and say, "Get me another Jeter." Impossible. Doesn't work that way.

MLB: Tanaka Steps Into The Pressure Cooker of New York

by Steve Painter 

Face it, Masahiro Tanaka is a brave man for wanting to sign with a team in a ridiculous media market like New York. It's a good thing he is used to the limelight, being married to a pop star, because the pressure on him will be incredible. I'm sure he has already spoken to Hiroki Kuroda about the media frenzy, but can mere words actually prepare him for the onslaught?

The internet went nuts when reports surfaced that Robinson Cano wanted a 10 year deal worth $305 million. Yeah, he wanted the South Beach area code from any MLB team that would listen.
They say aim high and that’s what Cano and Roc Nation did. A lot of people bashed him and Roc Nation’s figurehead Shawn “Jay-Z” Carter for the original demands, but everybody even them knew the amount of $305 million would never become a reality.

The Success of the Yankees and the Red Sox

Before the 2013 season began many experts predicted a tough season ahead for the New York Yankees. Who could blame them? A series of injuries left a depleted Yankees squad without stars, but as the first stage of the season has proved, lack of stars doesn't necessarily equal lack of quality. For the batters consistency has been the key to their success. Other than possibly Robinson Cano, nobody has really stood out with the bat, but at the same time they don't have a starter who is struggling, its a strange situation that seems to be working with a strong rotation to keep the opponent's run totals low. Hiroki Kuroda has had an incredible start, in 9 starts the 38 year old has a 1.99 ERA and a 6-2 record. C.C. Sabathia and Andy Pettite are performing to a high level as usual, and outside of his last 2 starts
