Excuse me while I throw up a little bit....

Free-agent outfielder Jacoby Ellsbury has reached agreement on a seven-year contract with the New York Yankees pending a physical exam, a baseball source told ESPN.com.

According to multiple reports, the deal will pay Ellsbury $153 million over seven years and includes an option for an eighth year that could increase the overall value of the contract to $169 million. Ellsbury's deal exceeds Carl Crawford's seven-year, $142 million contract with the Boston Red Sox in December 2010.

He must be signing and wanting to go to a winning team, obviously has nothing to do with money.

I actually thought he was headed to Seattle, even that would be better than this. May he follow J. Damon's career path in NY.
