The Yankees are supposedly thinking of breaking the bank for CC and signing Giambi to a cut rate deal, which he would do presumably. How many giant deals can they do with the Arod deal and Jeter coming due soon.

Even with the new ballpark the Mets still don't have unlimited resources. And once they hit that luxury tax then every extra dollar is multiplied. If you told me for $24 million next year they could have Delgado, Nathan, and Fuentes or have Teixeira and buyout Delgado I'd take the former in a heartbeat. They can always plug someone in at first if Delgado goes bad. They proved this year that you can't plug someone in as closer and setup man.
