The Official 2012-2013 New York Yankees Offseason Thread II

[YankeeFan16]

Murphy kind of sucks...

And it wont be a "piece together" year. It's Derek's last... they will figure out a way to compete and spend every last cent of that 189

I stick to my guns. Heathcott Williams Sanchez Warren for Stanton and Nolasco (1 year $11.5m dump) - None of those guys will be the player Stanton is, we'd be lucky if one of them pan out and even if all 3 pan out, none will be close to Stanton or have the impact he will in 2014.

So why are the Marlins trading Stanton then?

Cause the marlins don't know what we know!

Win.

Brandon McCarthy and Boston seem like a match.

Williams played in high A last ye before he got hurt. Its a legit possibility that 2 of Williams, Heathcott, Flores or Austin are ready by 2014. We have Adams or Joesph that could play 2nd base. I would bet that between Romine, Murphy, and Sanchez one of them will be ready to at least be a back up and tack over the next yr.

The rotation is easy CC, Pineda, Nova, Phelps, Banuelous, Turley, Phelps Rameriez, Warren, Marshall, Tracy ect

The Bp you have D Rob who ever doesn't workout in the rotation and whatever else they can peice together.

It wouldn't be the best team but it would be cheap as hell and realistically could be done

So naturally the Marlins would accept a trade where they get unknown talents for a stud player.

He could have been our Stanton......

I am ready for a few bad years with prospects getting a full chance.....after 2013 try to trade Teix and CC to the Dodgers.....It was fun watching the kids come up in the early 90s with Pettitte, Mo and Bernie, along with Jorge and Jeter....Bernie was the only one who actually experienced non playoff seasons besides 2008....

[morrisonross]

The Yankees should trade Cano and Granderson to Dodgers for Matt Kemp and Kenley Jansen. The Yankees then could sign Keppinger to play 2nd and Hairston Jr. and McClouth, or Sizemore to platoon in outfield.

Both have no trade clauses..

I know for sure Mark Teix won't waive his either, he's already said he wants to retire a Yankee and nothing will change that.

Nationals acquired OF Denard Span from the Twins for RHP Alex Meyer.

That's all it took to get him? One prospect whos 22 and hasn't pitched above A ball yet?

Yes I know, he went too college and was the nationals 2011 first round draft pick..but really?

Ugh
