Needs to keep the Yanks in it though to drive up his price to go out west. “heh heh,“he says while chuckling at Yankee fans.... 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As a Sox fan I know what your saying. I hate Boras's guts but if I were a player there's no one else I would want to rep me. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HawkeyeJet 5,011 #43 Posted 13 hours ago As a Dodgers fan, my gut tells me they won't go to extremes to get Cole. My gut says their utlimate goal is Rendon. My guess is Yankees, but if I were a Yankees fan I'd be a bit worried about the Angels. They can do crazy things when Mareno gets a wild hair Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Barton 66,634 #44 Posted 5 hours ago Gotta give credit to the Cashman and Hal here. Cole had to get done and they got it done. It might not work out. But they had to do this. Now? JUST WIN, BABY! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HessStation 25,290 #45 Posted 4 hours ago Only weird thing about this team is they might not have a lefty bat the whole lineup. Stanton is the biggest cock block ever, Id be willing to give up a couple proper prospects to unload him west somewhere. 2020 should be Frazier’s time imo...even tho, still righty bat. Sign Smoak at first? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Morrissey 12,659 #46 Posted 4 hours ago Gotta think JA Happ is unloaded, Yankees like to use 5th spot in young starters. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Obviously he is going to be suspended for at least half the season but my guess is that he would be the fifth starter if available. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Usually there’s at least 1-2 starters who go down with injury by the time that happens German comes off suspension and is ready to go Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
