New York Yankees Official Thread - at Phils; 64-45 - Jazz Show is LIVE

as much as i think Correa's a douche for his Astro yrs, i'd take him in a minute instead of rollin the dice with a rookie. him being Puerto Rican will make him feel right at home here also. almost every PR that played here got love (see Bernie Williams, Posada, Beltran). i know Beltran's a bit of a reach but they brought him to the booth to bless us with that PR accent that no one can understand

believe it or not, Yanks haven't had many PR ballplayers. they even list Reggie and Stanton as some who have played here

the ones who have played here got love, even Ricky Ledee

“Most Puerto Ricans,” he said, “are Yankee fans.” – The New York Times, 1976.​

“They are the greatest fans.” – Sonia Sotomayor (US Supreme Court Justice and Bronx Native) on Yankees fans.​

i'm sure it would work ...

Pitching didn’t lose us the ALCS. Hitting did.

And one of the best post season hitters of all time is available.
Take it.

 

[essential1]

Sure but one is $700k a year for the next 3 years and allows us to sign Rodon. The whole point of developing players is to get cheap years out of them so you can spend money elsewhere. Volpe is our top prospect in a long long time. Signing Correa just throws away that value we've worked so hard to develop.

Our highest rated prospect since Gleyber Torres.

Who was a top 5 prospect in baseball.

Put Volpe at 3B then. Or put Correa at 3B.

You’re being obtuse right now.

5 years ago we traded for this gem.

I love Giancarlo

 

[mrdozo]

By the way, Giancarlo’s deal is a steal right now.

3 year / $96mil
Then get to the Marlins paying $10mil for the last 3 years.
2 year / $34mil
1 year option for $15mil

If they keep him through the contract it’s 6year $145mil. An AAV of $24.1mil

Yup, im a mets fan and want to trade for Stanton. Mets need a masher like Stanton . There arent many legit power hitters right now. Even on a down yeat with injuries hes averaging 30+ HR/season.

Cool Mets fan.

Salute

 

[you go boy]

I like Stanton... Never understood the hate from some fans...I'm just hoping we can somehow trade both hicks and donaldson

 

[Coupé It]

Why is Rodon taking so long

I'm not being obtuse at all. We need SP more than IF. Spend the money in the biggest need. And paying for Correa's bat as a SS and then playing him at 3b would be a waste of capital.

 

[g-time]

You can get both but ok.

Bats are more important than SP for us.

We did not lose because of pitching.

 

[essential1]

Anyway. Unless they make their intentions that they will go for the $350mil Devers is going to get next off-season.

You go Correa and Rodon now. Get it done and over with.
If you believe in Peraza and Volpe that much then you shuffle every body around. (Hell Fernando Tatis is in the OF now).

They have 3 salary issues in the IF. Donaldson. IKF. And DJ LeMahieu getting $15mil a year for the next 4 years to be a league average bat.

 

[アミーゴ]

I can’t see a world where they sign both - feels like one or the other, let’s see how motivated they are

If it’s neither. Hal can suck a lemon!

 

[dblplay1212]

Can, sure, but it's very unlikely they take the payroll there.

 

[essential1]

Andrew Benintendi is not a good signing by the way.

 

[アミーゴ]

Looking at 4/50 I’m sure he gets more

 

[essential1]

Yeah he’ll get more. Probably 4/$80mil. Maybe more.

The problem is he’s a slightly better Brett Gardner.

Signing Judge. Great.
Getting Rodon. Great too.

But woof at giving Andrew Benintendi money.

 

[dblplay1212]

If you get 2022 Benintendi, I'm cool with it. I don't think he's a 120+ wRC+ guy consistently though. Positive is he's a lefty contact guy.

 

[essential1]

Nope. You have to go Correa on top of Rodon. Now way around it now.
**** Peraza. **** Volpe

 

[アミーゴ]

Bro you are over the top right now - stop it and don’t dunk on our prospects smh essential1

 

[essential1]

Oh I like them. Wouldn’t trade 2 of the top 3 for 99% of baseball.

But if we’re really gonna act like we can’t move prospects to new positions. Or even established players.
And wait a year on Volpe.

Or that this team will somehow be better if the only additions is Rodon and Kahnle, it’s nonsense.
