They lost a guy who was essentially a 110 OPS+ hitter with a backup who has something like a 60 OPS+, so they went out and got a guy with an OPS+ over 100. I think it's a lot more than a name acquisition. They needed a catcher. Yeah, I know. Still find it ironic that it happens to be one of the biggest names in catching of the last 20 years i dont understand how its ironic. he should be exactly who you expect the yankees to get Ironic in that the Yankees have had nothing but big name superstars come to their team throughout this decade through trade or free-agency and the big trade they make happens top be for one of the biggest names in the.... you know what i quit, I'm just making an observation, not critical analysis just use the word ironic correctly in the future, that's all.
