Bobby Abreu A Yankee As The Trading Deadline Approaches

How many more high powered players can the New York Yankees fit on a roster?

I ask this because the Yankees opened up their wallets for another high-profile player today, acquiring All-Star right fielder Bobby Abreu and starting pitcher Cory Lidle from the Philadelphia Phillies on Sunday for four minor league prospects.

So now their batting lineup could consist of: Jonny Damon, Derek Jeter, Alex Rodriguez, Jason Giambi, Bobby Abreu, Gary Sheffield, Hedeki Matsui, Jorge Posada, and Robinson Cano....that's a freakin' AL All-Star team!

Isn't this considered a monopoly? This team need to be broken up like Microsoft...

*Think the Yankees are definitely Championship bound? Bet on it in the Bodog Sportsbook!
