My brother and I were in Houston to see the Yankees that weekend. We went to the Friday and Saturday games. On Sunday we were in the hotel and my brother was showering; he heard me scream out “F*CK” when he twisted his knee rounding third. And that was the end of him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's 29 and an elbow strain away from his value tanking. Also, we have to be mindful of the other top pitching trades (BOS for Sales, CHC for Chapmen, CLE for Miller) and none of them involved 25 man roster players. Mets are not getting Torres or Andujar in any trade. They can get top position player prospects (which they desparately need) in Fraizer, Florial, etc. We could offer the Mets a really nice package for DeGrom without those 2. (Betances, German, Frazier, Torreyes, Romine etc) The Mets don’t want to trade DeGrom to us unfortunately even if it’s in their best interest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy. 16 hours ago, SMC said: Wang was a really good pitcher then and a sprained angle caused his career to spiral. Crazy. It wasn't just a sprain, it was a Lis-franc fracture I believe. Then they didn't let it heal all they way, he altered his motion due to the foot discomfort and ruined his shoulder. That injury probably cost him over 50 million easy, he was a really good pitcher, in fact he was 54-20 and entering the prime of his career. I really liked that guy, and he could go deep in games with that power sinker he threw. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chirorob Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 RHP Chien-Ming Wang was examined today at New York Presbyterian Hospital Columbia Medical Center by Yankees Team Physician, Dr. Stuart Hershon and Dr. Justin Greisberg, Foot and Ankle Specialist. Imaging studies revealed a mid-foot sprain of the Lisfranc ligament of the right foot and a partial tear of the peroneal longus tendon of the right foot. http://www.nj.com/yankees/index.ssf/2008/06/news_on_wang_is_not_good.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But multiple trips to the DL with back injuries, that's only going to get worse. If it's a 3-4 year deal, sure, but he's going to want 6-8 years. I would look at moving Stanton to the Dodgers, and putting Frazier in left next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morrissey Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 If you're starting a franchise, it's very likely Luis Severino is the first starting pitcher taken. Sale is 29, deGrom is 30, Kershaw is 30 and bridle, Kluber is 32, Scherzer is 33, Verlander is 35... Severino is only only 24. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not an ace right now by any stretch, but his stuff is really good, he's pitching very well for a rookie, and he's the opposite of Gray, he works fast.

Yankees drafted him in the 6th round out of Mississippi State in 2014. Funny he was in the same MSU bullpen as Jacob Lindgren who the Yankees also drafted in 2014, but in the 2nd round. Lindgren was much more heralded coming out, but he's never pitch well enough and I believe he's in the Braves system now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
