    2024-25 Yankees Offseason

    It is a bit surprising that the Yankees have not yet announced any international signings. I read somewhere they’re hoping to grab someone from the Dodgers. A very small percentage of me is holding out hope despite very solid reporting to the contrary.

    NY bullpen 2025

    This is the best mix they’ve had at this point in the offseason as far back as I can remember (post Rivera).

    2024-25 Yankees Offseason

    I am on board with all of this. From the side interviews after the press conference, Cashman revealed that they were granted an in-person meeting with Sasaki.

    2024-25 Yankees Offseason

    I get the sense that Cashman is having a little more fun here - has some money and lots of optionality with how the roster is constructed so far. It’s also interesting to see how little consensus there is on what the Yankees should do next because there are so many different paths. I have a...

    There is a way to get messages to Cashman, I think. He is on cameo, so the message you want him to read could include trade suggestions ;)

    NY 40 man roster 2024-25

    Great insight, but you have four catchers listed and a number 5 next to them (but I think you have the total correct).

    This is where I am at also. All things being equal, he seems to be the best fit.

    That’s comforting. I saw somewhere that the hang up was that the Dodgers were only willing to go three years. Four years kind of scares me.

    I have seen some Toescar Hernandez rumors floating out there. Any chance he can play a (subpar) LF?

    2024-25 Yankees Offseason

    I am really bummed, but that contract would have handcuffed the Yankees for the next number of years. Am I rationalizing? Sure I am. Is it still true? Yes it is.

    Boston’s taxing pursuit of Juan Soto is over. (Mets)

    FWIW, only people outside the US can bet at Polymarket. During the election, Trump’s chances on Polymarket were being driven largely by one person in France. https://www.business-standard.com/amp/world-news/polymarket-investigated-by-doj-for-letting-us-users-bet-on-platform-124111400111_1.html...

    Boston’s taxing pursuit of Juan Soto is over. (Mets)

    One thing to think about - ballplayers usually get to the park much earlier. Probably before rush hour hits.

    2024-25 Yankees Offseason

    Makes sense - I feel the same way. Very much a high reward signing. With respect to Soto, I have been watching the main board and they seem to think it is Mets, then Red Sox. Maybe I am a biased Yankees fan, but I do not see the Red Sox being that high on the list of possibilities (or least...

    Also, there were reports of mutual interest with Walker Buehler.

    2024-25 Yankees Offseason

    I can see the argument, but I don’t trust that they would reallocate all of that $$ or be able to chase and sign the players that would bolster the roster (which has plenty of holes). Soto and Judge together can hide a lot of weaknesses in an imperfect team.
