Then maybe while he is studying up on Jeter he should study the way Jeter answered questions like that. -

"Well, I think players were judged through the eras differently. Jeets was a great player. 6th all time hits?

On the bright side the Yankees also would get Kate Upton.Originally posted by Zimmer's Helmet View Post
I don't have issue with signing Verlander as long as they don't use this as an excuse for no money going after Seager/ Correa.Comment

Knowing Cashman, he’ll go out and spend big on Verlander and Rizzo, tender Sanchez then tell us he’s proud of their built-in discipline at the Andrelton Simmons press conference.Originally posted by kan_t View Post"Glory is fleeting, but obscurity is forever." - Napoleon Bonaparte (1769-1821)Comment

Jeter never answered any questions. He spoke in platitudes and just bored you to death with the same canned responses to questions as he danced around them. 😂Originally posted by sd. View Post"Glory is fleeting, but obscurity is forever." - Napoleon Bonaparte (1769-1821)Comment

Correa should go to the Tigers so he can unite with Hinch or Red Sox under Cora. He isn't built for NY with the cheating scandal in his past.
The NY media wouldn't leave him alone about it.Comment

"To be honest [interviewers name], I'm not as interested in his 5 gold gloves as I am in the 5 rings he won. They guy is an amazing talent and a first ballot hall of famer but I hope I can help my team win as often as he did, that's what matters."Originally posted by ojo View Post
Zim is right, it may be boring, but it is much better than what he actually did.Comment

There's nothing wrong with his content, I agree, its the pure lack of tact. Plus the media is just going to bait him constantly because he has no filter and its too easy. We like it now because we need a great short stop and he is that and blunt and brutal honesty is something we haven't had in a while, but is anyone going to want to hear this guy say a word when he is mired in a slump and the team is floundering or as his talent naturally fades with age, but if they sign him we're going to have to listen to him anyway. Perhaps he'll endear himself enough early in the deal with outstanding play and some clutch postseason hits that he'll be so well regarded that people will just appreciate that kind of personality. The one positive I will say is that he at least always defends his teammates from what I've seen.Originally posted by Zimmer's Helmet View Post
Still Yankee fans blasted Machado and said they didn't want him because of one "Johnny Hustle" comment not realizing that Machado unlike every player on our team at the time plays 162 or a couple games shy every year. With Correa you get one of those comments every week. When will you get tired of it? I think pretty quickly if he isn't an absolute star and the Yankees don't win a championship immediately with him.Comment

Cashman probably put him up to it. Guy hated Jeter. "Go forth and show Mr. Cashman your loyalty, and I will make you rich beyond your wildest dreams."Originally posted by sd. View PostComment

How do you like this roster:
1 - Bryan Reynolds (S) - CF
2 - Aaron Judge (R) - RF/DH
3 - Cory Seager (L) - SS
4 - Giancarlo Stanton (R) - DH/LF/RF
5 - Matt Olson (L) - 1B
6 - DJ LeMahieu (R) - 2B/3B/1B
7 - Joey Gallo (L) - LF/CF
8 - Gary Sanchez (R) - C
9 - Gio Urshela (R) - 3B/SS
Bench: Odor, Wade, Higashioka, Hicks, Gardner
SP: Cole-Manaea-Severino-Taillon-Montgomery
SP depth: Schmidt-Medina-King
Bullpen: Chapman, Green, Loaisiga, Holmes, Cortes, Luetge, Peralta, Rodriguez
Will these moves get us this roster? :
Cory Seager - 8yrs/$240M? Player and/or team opt-outs after years 3,4,& 5?
Bryan Reynolds for Jasson Dominguez, Luis Gil, Gleyber Torres, Estevan Florial
Matt Olson & Sean Manaea for $5M, Luke Voit, Domingo German, Clint Frazier, Ken Waldichuk, Albert Abreu, Anthony Volpe
It needs a little tweaking (27 guys) but IMO this roster can contend for an AL East title."Somebody once asked me if I ever went up to the plate trying to hit a home run. I said, 'Sure, every time.'" -- Mickey MantleComment

We need to get away from all these expensive FA on the decline or over 30 and just play our prospects. We need to develop players instead of trading them, killing them by changes, playing them and then demoting them, or blocking them with expensive veterans. IMO Signing Judge long term is a mistake. Would you sign Wander Franco (TB) or Judge long term? Most people here would say Judge. Randy Arozarena (TB) got the AL Rookie of the Year. Both of these great young players are with TB. Do you think they will trade them? They trade players when they can't afford them or have a high trade valve and is past their prime (Archer was a super trade). WE NEED A BETTER SYSTEM FOR PLAYERS DEVELOPMENT. I want Urshela (or Peraza) at SS and then bring up Volpe. Posters are talking about FA signings to win the division HUH. I can't see it even with Seager, Gallo, and Rizzo. Isn't Glasnow coming back next year?Comment

Sub in Oswaldo Cabrera for Volpe and that roster has me buying a chunk of tickets for a homestand.Originally posted by sjb23 View PostComment

That Olsen trade seems to be giving them an awful lot of MLB talent that wouldn't make our roster most of which is arbitration eligible and wouldn't really save them any money.Comment
