Jays fans talked relentless shit the entire playoffs and now they want to act surprised by Yankees and Mariners fans celebrating them losing.
It has created the classic “rent free” “cope harder” cycle where everyone thinks they own everyone lol.
Reality is we’re all losers 😂
“What can the Yankees do differently?”
You mean differently than having boots on the ground in Japan to evaluate? You mean differently than throw $300M+ at Yamamoto? Differently than try to convince them that Tanaka did it, so they can to?
This is not a Yankees problem.
Acquiring Cody Bellinger completely changed the #Yankees offseason.
Overpaying for an aging, veteran first baseman became unnecessary, given that they want to keep the position open for Judge/Vladdy/someone else.
Let the #Astros have Christian Walker.
Cashman gave up nothing in Cody Poteet as far as prospects go to soften the blown of taking on nearly $50M the next two seasons.
The Yankees found their first baseman.
@KnicksRaph@JeffPassan Great move. Gives us more than rizzo did last year and he might not even be our first base move. He opts out after 1 season and we sign murakami to play first. We shouldn't even sign any other players with a qo attached cause of asigen we def don't want to lose more int money.
BREAKING: OF/1B Cody Bellinger has been traded from the Chicago Cubs to the New York Yankees, sources tell ESPN. Bellinger, 29, is a former MVP and has two years remaining on his contract with an opt-out after 2025. Yankees continue to be aggressive post-Juan Soto.
@BNightengale Just grab Santana or goldschmidt if can't get a deal done. Don't sign either of those that are attached to a qo. Not worth maybe missing out on asigen
While the New York Yankees are at a stalemate with the Chicago Cubs for OF/1B Cody Bellinger, they have turned their attention to the first-base market.
They are engaged in talks with 4 free-agent first basemen: Pete Alonso, Christian Walker, Carlos Santana and Paul Goldschmidt.
@martinonyc@crny02 we cant afford any more defensive liabilities in the field we already have torres and boone keeps deploying holmes so we already have enough ppl costing us games as is
@martinonyc@crny02 His defense is horrible and really needs to improve. This wont work in the playoffs. Only hitting .191 and strikes out multiple times a game. I like him and wanted him to come up but what hes showing defensively without the big offense we were expecting give me verdugo for now
If I were Chris Getz, I wouldn’t need Spencer Jones in a #Yankees deal. Shortstop Roderick Arias should be the target. I don’t think he’ll be available anymore by the trade deadline. Arias/Hampton package shouod work for #WhiteSox.
Corbin Burnes on trade: “Fortunate to be traded from 1 team that was good to another team that arguably is even better. Been part of winning seasons for the last 7 yrs and know what it’s like to get to postseason on a regular basis. Last yr what those guys showed was special."
