Do not sign Aaron Rowand

By Nick Shlain

The Yankees are apparently willing to consider moving Cabrera, who hit .291 with 58 RBI after taking over as the Yankees’ regular center fielder, because they told the agent for free-agent center fielder Aaron Rowand they would have interest in Rowand if they trade Cabrera. (Source)

A Type-A Free Agent (loss of ‘08 1st round pick), career 106 OPS+, played to his 90th Percentile while playing in an extreme hitters park (due for a big regression), he’d command a long term contract and will be 30 in ‘08,  why waste the money and a draft pick when Andruw Jones is availible?
