Hurmoth Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 Randy Johnson is 54 victories shy of the 300-win plateau. (Ben Margot/AP) The deals that would send Randy Johnson to the Yankees from the Diamondbacks and Shawn Green from the Dodgers to Arizona were approved Monday by Commissioner Bud Selig. A 72-hour period for the Yanks to negotiate a contract extension with Johnson and the Diamondbacks to do the same with Green begins Tuesday morning. Both players have no-trade clauses in their current contracts, which each has a year to go at $16 million. In the deal, the Diamondbacks would get pitchers Javier Vazquez and Brad Halsey, along with catcher Dioner Navarro and $8.5 million to $9 million in cash, in exchange for Johnson, the five-time Cy Young winner who has been coveted by the Yankees since prior to last July's non-waiver trade deadline.

Toxikk Veteran Posted January 5, 2005 Veteran Share Posted January 5, 2005 i could care less. just makes football, and the salary cap, more attractive to me. just seems like teams can be more competitive when they are on more level "playing fields" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
