Well today they traded for Vazquez. Gave up Nick Johnson, who I'm still convinced can become a hell of a hitter (although injury problems could get in the way). He's a very good fielder, so being in the NL will be good. As far as Rivera and Choate, no big losses there, although Rivera is a very nice guy in person (not that that matters at all).
Don't think they're going to go after Colon now, but I expect them to get Pettitte. Hopefully they can get rid of Weaver's contract.
It's a great thing when the Yankees/Sox rivalry spills over into the postseason. I don't think the rivalry has been this red hot since the 70s. It's a wonderful thing for baseball.
