  1. Ninja Cashman all over this trade. Speaking of payroll I wonder if they find a way to clear the salaries of DJ and Stroman. Dudes did not exist in the post season

  3. Cruz gets hit hard especially when he can't find the strike zone..

    Yankees brass are going to have to figure out how too keep Staton& Bellinger happy in clubhouse. Since Bellinger's wife used to be Stanton's girlfriend..

  11. I’m happy about this trade. Now Austin wells can play without having any one breathe down his neck. Wells can now have a real back up and that’s it. I wish Trevino great luck. But time for wells to have his place not shared half and half.

  15. hey Derek love your videos about a splitter being safer to throw than a fastball I disagree with you there split your fingers and snap it down u feel the tension I was a pitcher my whole life

  17. Cruz — I am sorry, I could care less about his swing and miss… he walks the house.. and he never had a good season. He sucks. I am waiting to see if they waste a spot on the 40 man roster and Alex Jackson stinks.

  18. I love Nethaniel Lowe- He is a good glove. A lefty. a very well rounded hitter he walks a lot. I dont know why Texas is trading him. I will jump for joy if they get him. IF St. Louis pays half of Arenados salary, he is a 270 hitter 20 hrs 85 rbi, one the greatest defensive 3b's of all time. I think he wants to play on the west coast. But for 12 million he is a good buy, Move Jazz to 2nd.. that would be one hell of an infeild. They can also go after a big OF and move Bellinger to first if they dont get Lowe. I think if they can bring in Lowe and Arenado, they are a much better team than with Soto. They have the best starting pitching in baseball with depth. They have a premier closer and setup. The OF with Bellinger is outstanding. I would put Bellinger in left and Dominguez in center. I would also not just hand the job to Dominguez. We have seen with Gary Sanchez and Clint Frazier how that works out. I havent heard anything about Ha Seong Kim, Free agent from the Padres. Perfect leadoff hitter. He can play any infield position and LF. He has very little power. Base Stealer, runs the bases well, will hit 260 with a 340 OBP. He would be a great fit at 3b.

  19. The catcher is on a minor league contract and not on the 40 man. He wont be the backup catcher. Cruz's issue from what I gather is the long ball. I believe Blake will help.

  24. Gonna miss the defense of Trevino. Cashman is really bumping up roster via trades instead of free agency. It comes cheaper than signing FA these days. Would that means he is going to get the money for Bregmen? Now sign Tim Hill and we have a pretty decent and balanced BP.

  33. I get why trade Treviño as he has a lot of equity and can be a every day catcher instead of a backup like he would be with the Yankees. However, with the scarcity of catchers in the league, the Yankees could have gotten a bigger return or use it as a piece to get a first baseman or a second baseman with team control. Getting a reliever and a backup catcher in return seems like a very light return.

  37. So, we got a 1 year pitcher and a catcher that bats about .125. Not only that, Jackson only threw out 28% of his attempts. He's not a backup. He doesn't provide a single thing. Normally when you get a backup catcher you'll trade his hitting for good fielding. This is not the case. Teams will run on him and he can't hit.

  41. Teoscar Hernandez would be a good fit in left field KEEP Aaron judge in Right field and Cody Bellinger in Center I believe the yankees should go after either Yandy Diaz or Nathan Lowe in a trade and keep Ben RICE as a Backup at 1st base
