Yankees Taking a Serious Look at Nomar For First Base
George King of the New York Post reported in today's edition that several sources throughout the league are saying that the Yankees have made an offer to Nomar Garciaparra to play first base next season.
This would effectively turn Giambi into a full-time DH and could possibly cause Bernie to think twice about coming back for 2-3 million to be a part-time DH and fourth outfielder.
Signing Nomar to play first base would be an incredible development. If they can get this done at a reasonable price i.e. around what they paid Tino Martinez last season, it would be an excellent deal for the Yankees and Nomar.
For the Yanks, the upside is huge. Nomar could very possibly turn in a .320 avg / 25 HR / 100 RBI season.
Nomar would receive a tremendous amount of media exposure, which could translate to one last long term contract should he play well.
