Yankees resign Freddy Garcia

The Yankees are officially bringing back sweaty Freddy for another year. Garcia resigned for one year $5 million which was about a million more than I thought he would get. The Yankees could theoretically call it an off season with this move but that would be a bad move for them as its very doubtful that they will get the same performance from Garcia that they did last year. I'm not as sold on this move as I thought I would be about this move because unless they trade Burnett or move Hughes to the bullpen they are paying $5 million a long relief/spot starter, a role that could easily be filled with an internal arm. Its not a bad move but they could be paying Garcia $5 million to rot in the bullpen all year. You can never have enough SP depth and this is exactly what Garcia gives the Yankees.
