The Official 2012-2013 New York Yankees Offseason Thread II

[Thump]

Mauer's contract is NASTY - 23 Mils a season..

F THAT

[Pootamis91]

someone said Womack above and it made me sick..

As for catcher.. Soto is our answer when he is released tomorrow.. though I would still like AJ's bat in the lineup, but at his age he will want a two year deal..

yeah i said Womack just because i loved how he failed and we now have a allstar 2nd basemen in Cano . Soto would be good to platoon but i am hoping Sanchez is given the chance first before anyone

[Muddy D0g]

With Mo and Andy resigning the Yankees will trade for a good catcher IMO....I'd offer the farm for Joe Mauer...

no

[Pootamis91]

^ Mauer is a bad idea unless the Twins are eating most of his salary. Besides he is not available

I haven't been here in a while, but is this a serious suggestion? You don't skip AA and AAA.

Isn't Mauer more of a 1st basemen now?

you can skip them if you have the talent. Look at Jeter he went straight into the Yankees lineup after he was drafted. Now i am not saying he will be this great hitter but put him in a lineup with Jeter,Arod,Texeria,Cano,Granderson etc this kid would not have any pressure on him and in my opinion help him develop alot faster

Mauer seems like the complete opposite of what the Yankees are doing right now. No idea why people even think this would ever happen.

Uhm, what? Jeter played 4 seasons in the minors, including a full season at AAA

[ShadyOne]

Forget about Mauer, makes no sense on so many levels..

Makes too much money for us right now...

Is the hometown boy, the face of that franchise. Still hit .320 last year, they trade him, might as well fold up the franchise. Not happening...
