Initially, according to Yankees PR it was today or tomorrow. :shrug:

My thinking is if they aren't going to use Peraza at SS now then they should and should have been traded. Volpes bat give him the ability to play any...

Happy, happy. You're just a pup. Enjoy the moment time flies. All the best.

Day you are absolutely right. He's lighting things up. He wants a spot and has been working his butt off to get one and keep it! In 40 AB's slashing...

I'm a little surprised that no one is talking about Cabrera or how well he has played this spring. He started games at every position except pitcher...

Well....What kind of pitcher could you grab for $30M per? What type of DH could you get for $30M? I like him, but at those numbers... pass. As...

"Both have had plenty of opportunities this spring to showcase their talents, but Volpe has pulled away as the most productive, despite Peraza having...

But every one of them wants the Yankees on the bid to drive the price. Boras has admitted as much. Maybe a bit less so today than years ago.

I second that emotion! :D Happy Birthday! I also just had a birthday on 3/17! I stopped counting, in fact I'm starting to deduct a year every...

I think we have to be honest with ourselves, one of them will likely start the season in AAA. We seem to be assuming Peraza is a vastly better...

before the 2025 season

Or by pointless are you suggesting IKF is the SS at the outset, thus no decision needs to be made ? If so I agree. But the handwriting on the wall is...

I guess that's also a possibility. Slim but possible.

Pointless? What if it is determined Volpe is destined for the SS job? Would he not have to be on the 40 man? Even if the plan is to get him ML...

While I agree alone that means very little. The reason I think it means something is his very close relationship with Matsui. He looks at Matsui as...

True. There was a time when teams would shy away from a FA or international player once they heard or knew Yank were interested. They feared George's...

Yankees sent a group of their A team scouts and Kevin Reese ( the head of the farm system) were there scouting the Japanese team. Yamamoto, Sasaki,...

Premature? If it truly is a competition one could argue at this juncture Volpe has won. Peraza is already on the 40 man as I mentioned previously, he...

Munetaka Murakami: “Ideally I’d like to play for a West Coast team. But I am also interested in the New York Yankees” ...

You are right, I expect a move will be made to make room. A likely trade for pitching that may involve IKF, Donaldson or possibly Torres. (Donaldson...

LOL Do we have video?

Cashman taking responsibility for the Montas trade turning out so poorly. Hell must have frozen over

No reason he can't. Imo they both make the team. Who they move to make room and how that happens remains to be seen.

I agree. My point I don't care who gets the nod. I would be happy with either. HOWEVER, if it truly is a competition for, imo Volpe has out played...

Nicky relax. I don't have a dog in this race. I do agree Volpe has out played Peraza "in ST." If it truly is a competition the winner imo is clear....

According to Peraza: The 22-year-old is wearing contact lenses for the first time after the Yankees sent him to an eye doctor after he struggled...

Sending Peraza down (NO indication this has even been suggested) in order to give him time to adjust MAY simply be a safety issue. Isn't it possible...

not even NPL, he's playing professionally in the DR

Peraza is dealing with a vision issue in his left eye. He had trouble with the eye chart and was sent for more testing. He was 20/60 in the left eye...
