No way. They will say they don't want to pay for the back end of those contracts and instead go out and get someone and only get the back end of the contract (see: Josh Donaldson).

If I was Judge I'd probably be looking forward to getting out of NY.
The pitching is probably the biggest issue right now, although the offense isn't good either. It isn't just the starters or just the bullpen. The pitching staff is floundering as a whole.
How often does he post on there? Didn't know if it was weekly or monthly or what.
This has been one of the worst seasons I have ever watched. To start at a historic pace just to convert to one of the worst teams overnight is hard to fathom. This team is a like a sick dog that...
Lo has to have options right? He has to go down at this point, he isn't worthy of a MLB roster spot right now.
Axisa is pretty much always spot on. Miss RAB so much.
Another thing getting overlooked is maybe the Yankees looked at Schmidt as their top pitching prospect and still have high hopes for him as a starter. They might think they kept their top pitching...
I'm on the opposite end. I'd much much rather keep Peraza than Waldichuk. Waldichuk is a pitcher who can't command the ball. He also hasn't put up elite GB rates in the minors like great pitchers...
It is not just this system. It is all prospects. It is how baseball works.
Pathetic that German gets a rotation spot for absolutely no reason. Get Schmidt up here now. German is much better suiting to be a long RP in the bullpen.
The downfall of this team has been...
Jose Tabata
Jesus Montero
Kelvin DeLeon
Gary Sanchez
Manny Banuelos
Ravel Santana
Jorge Mateo
Wilkerman Garcia
Antonio Cabella
Dermis Garcia
Does it matter if they are rated as highly? The Yankees have hardly produced any impact talent from their system the last 20 years. The fact of the matter is, the majority of these guys won’t even...
Man that Castillo guy is really good. Too bad there wasn’t any impact players like him available at the deadline for the Yankees to grab! But they have a guy who they’re supposed to sign that’s going...
I think it’s fairly easy to see why someone would say to trade them for a legit star. When was the last top IFA signing that panned out for the Yankees? Sanchez? I’d say he was a good investment but...
This team needs to call up Florial, Peraza, and Andujar yesterday.
Andujar takes Carpenters spot. DFA Marwin and work Peraza in. Hopefully Peraza handles himself instantly which would send IKF to...
I always hate this argument.
Can't let a guy tearing it up replace another guy because he has experience. Who cares that he sucks at his job, he has experience. No way could the guy with no...
Holy **** Montas fits right in. This team blows. Thank god football is starting.
Anyone credible?
Also, the prospects floated around in these rumors don't seem realistic for a good young pitcher.
One, why would the Marlins want Hicks? That makes no sense. Bad contract for...
He might have credited Johnson but I think he meant to say Jalen Hurts. Jalen Hurts is the one who makes Lane Johnson good.
So there’s two scenarios.
1. Cashman is the worst GM alive and traded a starter in speculation of acquiring another player. Cashman sucks but he isn’t this stupid.
2. The Lopez rumor is just...
Once again, this wouldn’t happen unless somehow the Yankees are the dumbest organization on earth. They simply would’ve waiting to file the trade of Monty until the trade of Lopez was done first.
Do they think Tallion is better than Monty? Because Tallion has been throwing batting practice for half the season now. I would certainly rather roll with Monty in the playoffs than Tallion. German...
The good news is the Yanks have a lot of money coming off the books. Britton/Chapman is around 30M alone. They’ll have to attach a prospect or two but Donaldson could potentially be another 25M.
...
IKF would be a really solid utility guy. Hopefully that’s what he becomes by the end of this year and Peraza takes over. Donaldson has to go, horrible risk take from the start. Now they’ll have to...
Mariners!?
