Yeah, they plan to resign him again in the winter, Cashman says.

For just this season? Medina has big SP potential by maybe 2022 or 2023 but I think is unlikely to be called up this year, maybe in a reliever emergency. With him, I always think back to BA awarding him both the best fastball and curve in the entire organization when he was like 19.Who do you think has the best upside - Green, Loaisiga or Medina? I remember you being a big fan of Medina’s, but has Green’s curveball or Loaisiga’s recent performance bumped either of them up for you?
I feel so sorry for Clint Frazier. The guy cannot seem to catch a break. He actually came to Spring Training in great shape both mentally and physically. He hit the ball hard and seemed really mature. Unfortunately there seems to be no room at the barn for him. It seems like his prime might be getting wasted on the Yankees. I realize as Jon states that Cashman values deep depth but does there become a point of diminishing returns in regards to players such as Frazier and others?OK, so Avilan, Hale, and Iannetta were all added to the 40 man and made the team, Montgomery is down to start but just because they won't use him for the first week or so. So I think this is the 30 man team for Thursday?
Lemahieu (2B)
Judge (RF)
Torres (SS)
Stanton (DH)
Hicks (CF)
Sanchez (C)
Voit (1B)
Urshela (3B)
Tauchman/Gardner (LF)
Additional bench: Andujar, Estrada, Wade, Higashioka, Ford, Iannetta
Cole
Paxton
Happ
King
Hale
Loaisiga
Cessa
Avilan
Heller
Holder
Green
Ottavino
Kahnle
Britton
16 position players and 14 pitchers, I knew they wouldn't take as many pitchers as they were talking about last week (15-17). Tanaka will be back probably a week into the season, no update on Chapman that I've heard.
I feel bad for him also, but also remember that as EE said, it was his own truly dreadful defense that tanked his 2019 and that remains a giant question mark. NY could certainly trade him, but what do they need?I feel so sorry for Clint Frazier. The guy cannot seem to catch a break.

Looks like we’ve got an answer:The fascinating part is who is coming up in the empty spot now, maybe Deivi MLB debut? Not many options who don’t need a 40 man spot.
Woof, only 7 more years. Good thing the AAV is low because he won't be in a yankees uniform that long.
They have less injuries than pretty much any other team in baseball so far.Does this team stretch? Come on Cressey, I'm underwhelmed so far.
Out of context, maybe, but this is the context:That's a not-so indirect shot from Judge targeting management, because as you may recall, he felt the trip to the IL was entirely unnecessary.
Yeah but they seem to have a limitless supply of quality players to plug in. Their roster and depth are just orders of magnitude better than Boston’s. It’s so depressing.LeMahieu to the IL, Andujar up. Injuries piling up again. View: https://twitter.com/yankeespr/status/1295035065597034496?s=21
Given the obscene # of injuries last year and how badly they botched Sevy, I guess I can't blame them. Although for that theory to hold up, they would've performed a dozen different MRI's on Judge's lower half.Judge says he is a hundred percent and could play tonight if he wasn’t on the IL, but NY wanted to be careful with him.
