1
00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:02,239
Speaker 1: All right, let's it the field.

2
00:00:02,440 --> 00:00:05,720
Speaker 2: All winter long, Yankees fans and the baseball world have

3
00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:09,520
Speaker 2: been asking themselves one question, could the Yankees re sign

4
00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:12,320
Speaker 2: Juan Soto? But maybe we've been asking the wrong question.

5
00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:14,680
Speaker 1: Your signis are so preoccupied with whether or not they could,

6
00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:16,079
Speaker 1: they didn't to think they should.

7
00:00:16,239 --> 00:00:18,680
Speaker 2: In this episode, will debate what the Yankees should do

8
00:00:19,079 --> 00:00:22,680
Speaker 2: if they decide to let Juan Soto sign elsewhere. Get

9
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:25,760
Speaker 2: your comments and takes ready. This this pin strike Tarot

10
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:38,240
Speaker 2: wanted to pull. That's all. Welcome back, everybody, Welcome back. Listen.

11
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:42,199
Speaker 2: You guys that have been with me all season know

12
00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:45,400
Speaker 2: that I've been shouting from the rooftops. Pay that man

13
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:50,120
Speaker 2: his money. You'd be hard pressed to find someone who

14
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:53,680
Speaker 2: likes Juan Soto as a part of this lineup more

15
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:57,800
Speaker 2: than I do. But it's becoming more and more evident

16
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:03,680
Speaker 2: each day that Steve Cohen is unlikely to be outbid.

17
00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:07,560
Speaker 2: Even Ken Rosenthal said today that the most likely scenario

18
00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:11,000
Speaker 2: is that Jan Soto ends up with the Mets on

19
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:15,920
Speaker 2: a record contract. But even if the Yankees are not

20
00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:21,600
Speaker 2: out bid, even if they somehow come in above Steve Cohen,

21
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:28,200
Speaker 2: He's gonna raise the price to astronomical and ridiculous levels,

22
00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:33,120
Speaker 2: which will limit your ability to build a team around him.

23
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:34,760
Speaker 2: And the Yankees have a lot of holes to fill.

24
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:40,120
Speaker 2: And we've talked a lot on this podcast about the

25
00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:43,400
Speaker 2: different reasons why you need to bring Juan Soto back.

26
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:46,560
Speaker 2: I mean, he's an elite hitter. He's one of the

27
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:49,880
Speaker 2: best left hand hitters at his age in the history

28
00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:54,440
Speaker 2: of the game, comparable only to maybe Ted Williams. But

29
00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:58,160
Speaker 2: I wanted to kind of explain why it wouldn't be

30
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:01,720
Speaker 2: the end of the world if signs with the Mets

31
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:04,600
Speaker 2: or anyone else for that matter. I wanted to make

32
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 2: it clear before we begin though, that you know, I

33
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 2: want Juan Soto on the Yankees. I want him hitting

34
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:18,359
Speaker 2: behind Jason Dominguez and helping him develop. I want him

35
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 2: to hoist the World Series trophy at Yankee Stadium. But

36
00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:24,920
Speaker 2: only one team can sign him, and a lot of

37
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:28,119
Speaker 2: other teams are gonna be disappointed. And if it's all

38
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:31,880
Speaker 2: about money, if money is the only factor, then he's

39
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:35,720
Speaker 2: most likely going to the Mets. I mean, the bat

40
00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 2: that he put together before he smoked a home run

41
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:42,240
Speaker 2: in the ALCS to send the Yankees of the World

42
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,200
Speaker 2: Series was one of the best at bats I've ever

43
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 2: seen in my life. And there's about three guys in

44
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,920
Speaker 2: the sport who could have had that at bat, and

45
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:53,959
Speaker 2: Juan Soto is one of them. He was clutch all

46
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:58,040
Speaker 2: season long. He was outstanding in the playoffs. But I've

47
00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:00,520
Speaker 2: seen a lot of commenters on this channel, and I've

48
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 2: gotten a lot of calls, got a lot of voicemails

49
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:09,079
Speaker 2: and so forth that suggest these a lot of fans

50
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:14,760
Speaker 2: just don't feel comfortable handcuffing themselves or having the Yankees

51
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:20,359
Speaker 2: handcuffed themselves. I should say, to a record contract for

52
00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:23,240
Speaker 2: a guy who's probably going to be a DH in

53
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:27,320
Speaker 2: a few years, to say he's not a good defender

54
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:31,000
Speaker 2: is an understatement. He was in the thirty eighth percentile

55
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:35,120
Speaker 2: in fielding run value, twelve percent below league average. That's

56
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:37,680
Speaker 2: pretty terrible as a base runner. He was even worse

57
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 2: than that. He was in the fifteenth percent tile, thirty

58
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:45,120
Speaker 2: five percent below league average. Putrich we saw it all year,

59
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 2: and we overlooked it all year because he's such an

60
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:54,080
Speaker 2: amazing hitter. But if he does walk, if he does walk,

61
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:57,280
Speaker 2: you have a chance to make up for it in

62
00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 2: other areas of the game. You're never going to rep

63
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 2: Juan Soto's offense with one guy. And I've seen a

64
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,600
Speaker 2: lot of comments, Oh, this isn't moneyball. You can't rebuild

65
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,800
Speaker 2: them in the aggregate. No, you probably can't, but you

66
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 2: can get close. You can upgrade the team offensively at

67
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:19,359
Speaker 2: multiple spots in order to make up for some of

68
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:22,039
Speaker 2: what Juan Soto gave you. You can add in. You

69
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:25,120
Speaker 2: can probably make up for the home runs. Probably won't

70
00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:28,560
Speaker 2: make up for the on base percentage, the walks in

71
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 2: front of Aaron Judge, so it'll cut down on Judges'

72
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:37,480
Speaker 2: RBI total. But the good news is you can fill

73
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 2: in in a lot of different spots and sort of

74
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 2: recraft the way this team looks now. You can make

75
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:48,160
Speaker 2: the argument that they're already getting better offensively by swapping

76
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:51,960
Speaker 2: out Alex Rdugo for Jason Dominguez. If Dominga stays healthy,

77
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,680
Speaker 2: and I think he will, he's gonna hit twenty five

78
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:57,880
Speaker 2: home runs and steal thirty bases, no doubt. In my mind.

79
00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 2: I would bet my house on that that if Jason

80
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:03,200
Speaker 2: Demingez plays let's say one hundred and forty games, I'll

81
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:06,280
Speaker 2: give him one il trip. He's gonna hit twenty five

82
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:11,080
Speaker 2: home runs against Steel thirty backs. The Yankees can absolutely

83
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:13,679
Speaker 2: also get better at first base next year. I expect

84
00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:18,159
Speaker 2: an upgrade there. Christian Walker, he was hurt all year. Well,

85
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:20,680
Speaker 2: he wouldn't say all year. He had. He battled back

86
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:22,400
Speaker 2: from an oblique injury and it kind of hampered him

87
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:23,520
Speaker 2: a little bit, but he still had an eight to

88
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,920
Speaker 2: zero three to ops. He's one year removed from thirty

89
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:31,200
Speaker 2: three home runs. Pete Alonso talk more about him in

90
00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:33,599
Speaker 2: a minute. Another power threat that's out there for the taking,

91
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:38,880
Speaker 2: Cody Bellinger possibly available. You got options at first At

92
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,920
Speaker 2: second base, Labor Torres was only seven percent above league

93
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:44,880
Speaker 2: average as an offensive player, and he was well below

94
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,919
Speaker 2: average as a base runner and as a defender. So

95
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:52,120
Speaker 2: just by putting a league average hitter who's competent on

96
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:58,039
Speaker 2: the bases and at second base, you improve, you improve.

97
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,560
Speaker 2: Year two of Jazz Chwoers should be pretty good. His

98
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:04,480
Speaker 2: swing was made for Yankee stadium and hopefully the adjustment

99
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 2: period is over, and you know, his power went up

100
00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:12,599
Speaker 2: drastically after becoming a Yankee. Austin Wells is a good

101
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:16,320
Speaker 2: bet to take a offensive leap forward next year. He

102
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:18,240
Speaker 2: was great for a couple of months. He's got an

103
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:22,800
Speaker 2: amazing swing, finished third in the Rookie of the Year voting.

104
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 2: I think he ran out of gas a little bit

105
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:29,960
Speaker 2: down the stretch. So if the Yankees lose Juan Soto,

106
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:33,719
Speaker 2: they've got some work to do. But you can still

107
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:37,239
Speaker 2: win without Juan Soto. The Dodgers proved that this year.

108
00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:40,040
Speaker 2: The Padres proved that this year they lost Wan Soda,

109
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:43,920
Speaker 2: they got better. So let's talk a little bit about

110
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:48,320
Speaker 2: some of the potential targets that the Yankees could consider,

111
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:53,480
Speaker 2: because they've got some holes to fill. And I've added

112
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 2: a few names to this trade list as we you know,

113
00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 2: look at these options here, let's talk about first base.

114
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:07,040
Speaker 2: Just to start out, Christian Walker already been linked to

115
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 2: the Yankees this offseason. He's got power. He's a really

116
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 2: good defender in the ninety first percentile. Let's take a

117
00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 2: look at his stat cast numbers, real quick, just go

118
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:22,520
Speaker 2: ahead and share those with you. He is in the

119
00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:28,360
Speaker 2: seventy second percentile of batting run value. His ex wOBA

120
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:35,320
Speaker 2: was terrific, average exit velocity, terrific hard hit percentage, bat speed,

121
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:39,760
Speaker 2: all outstanding walk percentage. Really good player, really good player.

122
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:44,440
Speaker 2: But he's also got his drawbacks too. I'm not a

123
00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 2: huge fan of signing guys in their mid thirties. I'm

124
00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:54,600
Speaker 2: just not And he's gonna be thirty four. You know,

125
00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:57,280
Speaker 2: he had oblique injury this year. Was that the beginning

126
00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:02,360
Speaker 2: of him breaking down? Quite possibly? And he wouldn't be

127
00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:04,160
Speaker 2: the first guy to start breaking down around thirty three

128
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:07,160
Speaker 2: years old. He's also right handed, and ideally you'd like

129
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:10,680
Speaker 2: to replace a left handed hitting first basement without you

130
00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:14,480
Speaker 2: left handed hitting first baseman, you just lost three lefty bats.

131
00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:18,960
Speaker 2: You lost Rizo Verdugo and in this scenario, Juan Soto.

132
00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:23,920
Speaker 2: So I'm not sure that he's a great fit. Pete

133
00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:27,560
Speaker 2: Alonso very similar, also not the best fit. Put up

134
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:30,360
Speaker 2: his stat cast numbers two. You see the batting run

135
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:33,600
Speaker 2: value in the eighty fourth percentile, but the base running

136
00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:37,920
Speaker 2: value and the fielding run value both horrific. He's a

137
00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:41,280
Speaker 2: guaranteed thirty plus home runs a year, thirty four this year,

138
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:43,640
Speaker 2: forty six the year before, forty the year before that,

139
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:46,960
Speaker 2: But he does nothing to move the needle defensively or

140
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:50,079
Speaker 2: on the basis. He was in the eleventh percentile as

141
00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:53,680
Speaker 2: a defensive first baseman, so eighty nine percent of first

142
00:08:53,679 --> 00:09:00,400
Speaker 2: baseman are better defensively than he is, and a base

143
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:04,760
Speaker 2: running we don't need any more god awful base runners. Okay,

144
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,240
Speaker 2: Another guy who could be a decent fit, and we

145
00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 2: just mentioned him a minute ago, is Cody Bellinger. Now

146
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:14,600
Speaker 2: he is not a free agent. He would require a trade,

147
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:19,000
Speaker 2: and that's not a guarantee because the Cubs are still

148
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:27,000
Speaker 2: trying to contend. So let's take a look at at

149
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:30,240
Speaker 2: Bellinger real quick while we've got well, we got this

150
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:34,480
Speaker 2: up here. Bellinger is a guy who makes contact, batting

151
00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:37,439
Speaker 2: run value in the seventy second percentile, base running value

152
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 2: in the eightieth percentile. Right there, you get better on

153
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:43,360
Speaker 2: the basis he's a good fielder, above average. He doesn't

154
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:45,640
Speaker 2: hit the ball all that hard, but he sprays a

155
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:47,840
Speaker 2: lot of singles and stuff. Let's take a look at

156
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:50,400
Speaker 2: one of these hits here. So this is a base

157
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 2: hit that he just sprays to left field. I'm gonna

158
00:09:55,440 --> 00:10:01,640
Speaker 2: kill the sound here, just bloops. He makes contact, see

159
00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:08,160
Speaker 2: a two strike approach. So look, that's that might be

160
00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:10,800
Speaker 2: the type of hitter we need for second base. You

161
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:12,880
Speaker 2: got a lot of guys that make sense. Brandon Donovan

162
00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:17,079
Speaker 2: makes sense. He's my favorite. If you could sign Willie A.

163
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:19,720
Speaker 2: Damas to play third base. You could move Jazz Chisholm

164
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:22,760
Speaker 2: back to second base, which is his normal spot, but

165
00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:26,120
Speaker 2: then you'd be wasting Jazz Chism's arm, except on those

166
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:29,480
Speaker 2: double playballs where sometimes you know, a matter of inches

167
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 2: can can mean a ball game, and glabor Tors does

168
00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:36,840
Speaker 2: not have a great arm. You could also get Bragmant.

169
00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:38,400
Speaker 2: I don't think the Yankees are gonna do that because

170
00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:41,400
Speaker 2: the whole Astros connection, but he could play third base,

171
00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:46,600
Speaker 2: Brandon Lao from the Rays. All of these guys move

172
00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:51,400
Speaker 2: the needle for the Yankees, and they would all be

173
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:55,200
Speaker 2: relatively affordable. Now, some of these guys, you got to

174
00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:57,680
Speaker 2: move some prospects for it, and we'll talk about who we

175
00:10:57,760 --> 00:10:59,920
Speaker 2: have to trade in a minute. But there's a lot

176
00:10:59,880 --> 00:11:03,440
Speaker 2: of different ways you can go. And that's if you're

177
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:06,480
Speaker 2: looking at things with a glass half empty perspective, you

178
00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:08,200
Speaker 2: could say, well, they've got a lot of holes to fill.

179
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:11,520
Speaker 2: But if you're looking at the situation as an opportunity

180
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:15,200
Speaker 2: to improve in a lot of areas, it's easy to

181
00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:18,120
Speaker 2: be optimistic that the Yankees could do some good things

182
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:20,800
Speaker 2: and improve in a lot of areas. I saw somebody

183
00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:24,360
Speaker 2: today say that Juan Soto carried the Yankees this year. Now,

184
00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:27,560
Speaker 2: I mean you could argue that Judge carried the Yankees

185
00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:29,640
Speaker 2: a lot too, that the combination of Judge and Soto

186
00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:34,000
Speaker 2: carried the Yankees a lot this year, but especially in April.

187
00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:38,800
Speaker 2: Sodo was extremely impactful for the Yankees, and he's a

188
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 2: big reason they won the division. But if you have

189
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:44,040
Speaker 2: a more well rounded team, you don't necessitate someone having

190
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:48,920
Speaker 2: to carry the team, right, So just something to consider.

191
00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:52,480
Speaker 2: Let's talk about trade chips, because there are some guys

192
00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:55,839
Speaker 2: that the Yankees have available that has some value our

193
00:11:55,880 --> 00:12:01,120
Speaker 2: current roster. We got Jose Travino catcher. He's lost some

194
00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:03,880
Speaker 2: value because of his arm strength, but he's an excellent framer,

195
00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:07,760
Speaker 2: Platinum Glove winner, can hit a little bit. Nester Cortes

196
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:10,600
Speaker 2: had interest at the trade deadline, but his elbow injury

197
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:12,320
Speaker 2: is gonna scare some teams away, but he still might

198
00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:14,840
Speaker 2: have a little bit of value. You could probably move

199
00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:18,000
Speaker 2: Marcus Stroman in the right deal because he only makes

200
00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:20,720
Speaker 2: eighteen million dollars. Hard to believe we're saying only makes

201
00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:24,800
Speaker 2: eighteen million dollars this year. I remember when Kevin Brown

202
00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:26,959
Speaker 2: got his seven year one hundred and five million dollar

203
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:29,280
Speaker 2: contract from the Dodgers, and everybody's like, oh my god.

204
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:32,719
Speaker 2: Fifteen million dollars a year, one hundred million dollar contract.

205
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:35,600
Speaker 2: By the way, I believe that was Scott Boris setting

206
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:41,400
Speaker 2: those records. But eighteen million is more than reasonable for

207
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:44,920
Speaker 2: an average pitcher these days. And the Yankees could move

208
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:47,560
Speaker 2: Stroman if they needed to. On the prospect side, you

209
00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 2: got Spencer Jones. He's still got some value. I know

210
00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:52,560
Speaker 2: a lot of people still don't want to trade him.

211
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:54,120
Speaker 2: I've seen a lot of people say you plug him

212
00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:56,600
Speaker 2: in left field. He's not ready. He strikes out way

213
00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:58,559
Speaker 2: too much in the minor leagues. He's actually lost a

214
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:01,320
Speaker 2: lot of value I think as a prospect because of

215
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:03,560
Speaker 2: how much he strikes out, how much he struggled this year.

216
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:08,440
Speaker 2: Roderick Arius and George Lombard a couple of middle infielders

217
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:12,120
Speaker 2: who are very promising. But with Anthony VOPEI basically locked

218
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:14,320
Speaker 2: in for the next ten years. You know, he's he's

219
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:16,280
Speaker 2: got six years, but he's a local kid. He's gonna

220
00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:17,839
Speaker 2: stay with the Yankees. He might have to move to

221
00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:19,840
Speaker 2: second base at some point, but he's not going anywhere.

222
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,000
Speaker 2: I think you can move one of those guys, whether

223
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,160
Speaker 2: it's Arius or whether it's Lombard. I think i'd rather

224
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:30,839
Speaker 2: move Arius. Lombard's a little bit further away, and he's

225
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 2: looked really good. He looked really good in spring training

226
00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:34,240
Speaker 2: last year. I like that he drives the ball the

227
00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:40,960
Speaker 2: other way. But Arius has elite, elite plate vision, big

228
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:44,360
Speaker 2: time prospect, and teams are always looking for pitching prospects

229
00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:47,559
Speaker 2: that can step in. Will Warrant was considered a top prospect,

230
00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:50,120
Speaker 2: but I think he's ass. I just straight up think

231
00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:52,960
Speaker 2: he is ass. We saw him this year. He was

232
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,920
Speaker 2: not good. Still considered a prospect, but I have no

233
00:13:56,000 --> 00:14:01,240
Speaker 2: qualms about trading him. Clayton beat is available. The Yankees

234
00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:03,320
Speaker 2: might use him out of the bullpen. They might use

235
00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:05,720
Speaker 2: him as a starter, but you could also move him

236
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:07,560
Speaker 2: to I worry about his shoulder. He had a shoulder

237
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:09,960
Speaker 2: issue this year. You worry about guys who have shoulder

238
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:14,800
Speaker 2: problems because the shoulder is very difficult to fix. Chase

239
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:19,960
Speaker 2: Hampton another starting pitcher. You got Ben Hess and Bryce Cunningham,

240
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:23,560
Speaker 2: a couple of college pitchers they just drafted. Henry Lelane,

241
00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:27,240
Speaker 2: twenty years old, could move up the ladder fast. He's big,

242
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:33,920
Speaker 2: He's six', seven throws absolute, gas just pure high octane.

243
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:38,360
Speaker 2: Heat but again a guy who's got to prove it

244
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:42,080
Speaker 2: against professional. Hitters but he could move quickly up the.

245
00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:47,200
Speaker 2: Ladder so they have more than enough PIECES i think

246
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:52,000
Speaker 2: to make a deal. Happen so you, know we will,

247
00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:56,640
Speaker 2: See we'll see how it shakes. Out let's go ahead

248
00:14:56,640 --> 00:15:01,720
Speaker 2: and take some comments here from the. Audience, Here ceciliano,

249
00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:03,880
Speaker 2: says The astros are trying to bring Home. Bregman that

250
00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:07,080
Speaker 2: doesn't surprise, me AND i think he will go back

251
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:10,120
Speaker 2: to The. Astros i've kind of got him low down

252
00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:12,600
Speaker 2: on my list at this, point AND i don't think,

253
00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:15,840
Speaker 2: that you, Know cashman would overpay for An astros. Player

254
00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:19,000
Speaker 2: we've seen some guys from That astros team get big contracts,

255
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:24,640
Speaker 2: before But George springer comes to. Mind BUT i don't

256
00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:27,880
Speaker 2: think That bregman will get one from The. Yankees stephanie

257
00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:30,640
Speaker 2: mccallis just, says when will we know word round the?

258
00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:34,240
Speaker 2: Campfires this is moving pretty, quickly but the winter meetings

259
00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:36,720
Speaker 2: are just a couple of weeks. AWAY i would imagine

260
00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:41,280
Speaker 2: that he's gonna get offers Before. Thanksgiving he's gonna have

261
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:44,920
Speaker 2: offers by this. Time next, week, okay if he doesn't

262
00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:47,280
Speaker 2: have some. Already John hayman says that he has no.

263
00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:50,240
Speaker 2: Offers we had the report From Hector gomez And Carlos.

264
00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:53,440
Speaker 2: Baergas sounds like it was bs that he got an

265
00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:55,680
Speaker 2: offer from six hundred and sixty million dollars from The.

266
00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:59,760
Speaker 2: METS i would expect that he's gonna get some offers

267
00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:04,280
Speaker 2: to think about Over thanksgiving and then the time Between

268
00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:07,760
Speaker 2: thanksgiving and the winter, meetings there's gonna be a bidding.

269
00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:09,880
Speaker 2: War there's gonna be some back and forth between the

270
00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:12,360
Speaker 2: teams that want. Him there's gonna be teams that duck.

271
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:16,640
Speaker 2: Out but The Blue jays want, him The Red sox want,

272
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:19,120
Speaker 2: him The dodgers met with him, Today The yankees want

273
00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:23,200
Speaker 2: him in The mets. One you can't imagine five better

274
00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:29,320
Speaker 2: markets to be bidding on. You and for that, REASON

275
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:31,160
Speaker 2: i think it's wise for The yankees to have some

276
00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:35,240
Speaker 2: backup plans with some of the guys that we. Mentioned

277
00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:42,120
Speaker 2: so you, know it will suck to Lose Wan soto

278
00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:44,720
Speaker 2: if he goes, elsewhere especially if he goes to The

279
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:46,680
Speaker 2: mets or in the division with to The Red sox

280
00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:50,360
Speaker 2: or The Blue, jays and if he goes to The,

281
00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:52,400
Speaker 2: dodgers they become a super. Team so there's really no

282
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:55,920
Speaker 2: good scenario for Where Juan soto ends up other than The.

283
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:59,240
Speaker 2: Yankees and you could argue that with The, yankees he'd

284
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:05,040
Speaker 2: have pretty much the perfect, situation hitting in front Of Aaron,

285
00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:07,560
Speaker 2: judge getting all the pitches to hit short right field.

286
00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:11,920
Speaker 2: Porch but it's gonna come down to the. Money UH

287
00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:14,919
Speaker 2: C nupte, Says so it looks like he becomes A christmas.

288
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:18,280
Speaker 2: PRESENT i think it'll be done well Before. CHRISTMAS i

289
00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:22,360
Speaker 2: think it'll be done in Early. December teams want to

290
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:26,400
Speaker 2: know where this contract is so that other players can

291
00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:29,600
Speaker 2: MOVE mlb likes to. Market The Winter meetings. Too you

292
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:33,439
Speaker 2: got to consider. This last, year The Winter meetings were

293
00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:39,160
Speaker 2: exceptionally boring because Of Scott, boris because he held Out

294
00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:43,679
Speaker 2: Major League. BASEBALL i guarantee you has Let Scott boris, Know,

295
00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:46,360
Speaker 2: hey we got we gotta have some movement at this

296
00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:48,320
Speaker 2: at The Winter meetings this. Year this is one of

297
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:52,439
Speaker 2: this is our big winter, event and for that to,

298
00:17:52,560 --> 00:18:01,080
Speaker 2: happen we gotta Have Juan soto's situation locked. Up Edison riley,

299
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:04,520
Speaker 2: Says yankees walk away From sodo go Get santander first

300
00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:08,920
Speaker 2: and third and bullpen Help santander a guy with forty

301
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:11,240
Speaker 2: plus home runs but only hit in the two. Thirties this,

302
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:12,639
Speaker 2: YEAR i think he hit two thirty. Five i'm not

303
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:14,040
Speaker 2: looking at his, numbers BUT i think he hit two

304
00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:16,880
Speaker 2: thirty five with forty four home. Runs but you could

305
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:21,160
Speaker 2: argue he'd hit, probably you, know close to fifty At Yankee,

306
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:23,040
Speaker 2: stadium you attack on a few more of the right field.

307
00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:28,359
Speaker 2: PORCH i don't know how he is as an, outfielder

308
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:31,200
Speaker 2: but On soto's not a great. OUTFIELDER i think That

309
00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:34,399
Speaker 2: Teoscar hernandez is a. Possibility if you'll Lose Wan, soto

310
00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:37,439
Speaker 2: you could put him in right, field slide judge to,

311
00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:41,360
Speaker 2: left Play dominguez in, center AND i Think dimingez will

312
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:44,000
Speaker 2: be better defensively next year if you play him in. Center,

313
00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:46,840
Speaker 2: listen he's not a left. Fielder he had trouble with

314
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:50,959
Speaker 2: the triple deck, syndrome which is when you go to

315
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:53,159
Speaker 2: the major leagues from the minor, league you got that extra.

316
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:55,480
Speaker 2: Deck it can kind of affect the way you see

317
00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:58,199
Speaker 2: the ball. Track the ball lights are a little bit.

318
00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:01,480
Speaker 2: Higher i'm not making excuses for the. Kid he's got

319
00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:04,080
Speaker 2: to play, better BUT i think it screwed him up

320
00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:06,240
Speaker 2: and he developed a little bit of the outfield, yeps

321
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:09,280
Speaker 2: which can. Happen BUT i talked to somebody in the

322
00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:13,359
Speaker 2: know and they said that he is absolutely working his

323
00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:17,080
Speaker 2: tail off this winter on, defense and he's playing a

324
00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:19,160
Speaker 2: lot of center. Field he's taking a lot of balls

325
00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:22,159
Speaker 2: in center. Field SO i think he's going to be

326
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:24,840
Speaker 2: the center fielder next, year which would mean if you

327
00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:28,440
Speaker 2: Have santander or Sod o obviously and, Right judge would

328
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 2: have to move to, left Which i'm okay. With judge

329
00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:32,760
Speaker 2: didn't look great in left field this, year though you

330
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:36,199
Speaker 2: might remember he played out there a little, bit but

331
00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:41,040
Speaker 2: he didn't look. Great i'm confident that he can improve

332
00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:43,720
Speaker 2: in left. Field and you, know if you can play,

333
00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:46,920
Speaker 2: center you can play. Left At Yankee, stadium they're both

334
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:50,359
Speaker 2: center field sized right and it's a big left field

335
00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:55,320
Speaker 2: At Yankee. Stadium but let's not Forget deminge has played

336
00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:58,120
Speaker 2: center all through the minor. Leagues you occasionally play, left

337
00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:00,760
Speaker 2: but he's a center. Fielder he's always been a. Centerfielder

338
00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:03,960
Speaker 2: he understands those, routes the way the ball is always

339
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:06,200
Speaker 2: kind of moving away unless it hit directly at, you

340
00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:10,360
Speaker 2: and in that, case it's usually. Knuckling the ball's always

341
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:14,080
Speaker 2: moving away from, you whereas you, know left field you

342
00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:17,480
Speaker 2: get slices and. Stuff it's it's just a different it's

343
00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:20,440
Speaker 2: a Different the ball comes off the bat. Differently, Right

344
00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:25,400
Speaker 2: i've played. BOTH i always like playing center. Best paul

345
00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:29,480
Speaker 2: O'Neill talked about how playing centerfield is, easier AND i

346
00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:32,640
Speaker 2: think he'll do. Better AND i Think domingos will hit.

347
00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:36,720
Speaker 2: Too you, know give him proper spring, training all that good.

348
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:43,280
Speaker 2: Stuff so you know that's where we're. At El nino,

349
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:48,119
Speaker 2: says then screw, It mets fifteen, years nine hundred. MILLION

350
00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:50,160
Speaker 2: i don't know if he'll get that. MUCH i don't

351
00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:53,000
Speaker 2: think he'll get anywhere near that, much but seven hundred

352
00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:55,920
Speaker 2: wouldn't shock. Me you know That boris wants to get

353
00:20:55,960 --> 00:21:01,679
Speaker 2: both the highest average annual value and the highest total. Value,

354
00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:07,159
Speaker 2: now the modern day cost Of Shoho tani is like

355
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:11,879
Speaker 2: forty six million because it's so many. Deferrals so let's

356
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:15,520
Speaker 2: just say you go forty seven million and you give

357
00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:19,560
Speaker 2: him fourteen. Years that's six hundred and fifty eight, Million

358
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,040
Speaker 2: so that comes up short of the total number you're

359
00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:25,240
Speaker 2: gonna have to attack on a fifteenth, Year so forty

360
00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:30,960
Speaker 2: seven times fifteen is seven hundred and five right. There

361
00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:35,880
Speaker 2: that's probably the baseline For Scott. Boris fifteen years at

362
00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:39,200
Speaker 2: forty seven that would be seven hundred and five. Million

363
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:41,920
Speaker 2: that would be the highest average annual value and the

364
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:46,520
Speaker 2: highest overall. Package that's probably What Scott boris is asking for.

365
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:51,600
Speaker 2: Minimum that's like his starting. Point that would be my,

366
00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:54,960
Speaker 2: guest just from WHAT i know about this. Guy When

367
00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:59,560
Speaker 2: Alex rodriguez was a free, agent everyone was, saying is it?

368
00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:03,760
Speaker 2: Possible could he possibly get two hundred million dollars in a?

369
00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:07,760
Speaker 2: Contract and The mets apparently offered him two hundred. Million

370
00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:11,360
Speaker 2: he ended up getting two fifty two from The. Rangers

371
00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:14,119
Speaker 2: So Scott boris can pull these rabbits out of a.

372
00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:19,400
Speaker 2: Hat could The Blue jays or The Red sox offer

373
00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:23,879
Speaker 2: him eight hundred million? Dollars you know what's fifty five

374
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:28,160
Speaker 2: million times fifteen that would be eight hundred and twenty five,

375
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:33,040
Speaker 2: Million and it's only an extra you, know eight million

376
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:36,480
Speaker 2: up from his starting point offer of forty seven, million

377
00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:40,040
Speaker 2: which would be the highest average annual. Value so, look

378
00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:42,560
Speaker 2: the numbers get real, big real fast when you're talking

379
00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:46,720

00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:26,760
Speaker 2: Is how about?

460
00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:29,120
Speaker 1: This you make that. Trade this is if we don't

461
00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:32,000
Speaker 1: Get toto, back you make that. Trade you Signed Christian

462
00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:38,040
Speaker 1: walker at, first you Signed Max freed for the, Rotation

463
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:41,240
Speaker 1: you get rid Of stroman in a. Trade you maybe

464
00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:42,840
Speaker 1: even Dump nesser in a trade or put him in

465
00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:46,320
Speaker 1: the bullpen for long, relief and you Sign Tanner. Scott

466
00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:49,960
Speaker 1: now do you think that team would have a chance

467
00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:52,320
Speaker 1: to compete for a championship next year if we make those?

468
00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:56,119
Speaker 1: Moves and ALSO i would have him Signing Keky hernandez

469
00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:58,960
Speaker 1: And Jesse winker for the. Outfield he could also play

470
00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:02,639
Speaker 1: other infield positions as. Well he gives us better versatility

471
00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:04,560
Speaker 1: and better nowth what you.

472
00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:08,080
Speaker 2: THOUGHT i Like Kek hernandez as a role. Player that's

473
00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:10,119
Speaker 2: a good, idea and he came close to signing with

474
00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:13,040
Speaker 2: The yankees last. Year, now looking At Nolan, aronatto he's

475
00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:15,040
Speaker 2: another guy who's in his mid thirty's gonna turn thirty

476
00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:17,480
Speaker 2: four next. YEAR i think he's a little bit over

477
00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:20,520
Speaker 2: the hill. Personally two seventy, two the powers dropped off

478
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:22,320
Speaker 2: three years in a, row from thirty home runs in

479
00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:26,040
Speaker 2: twenty twenty two to twenty six last year and now

480
00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:29,320
Speaker 2: sixteen this. Year you look at the bat, speed that's

481
00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:35,879
Speaker 2: the indicator of, power twenty eighth. Percentile it has fallen way. Off.

482
00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:38,720
Speaker 2: Now he is still pretty good at avoiding. Strikeouts his

483
00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:41,840
Speaker 2: fifth percentage is in the eighty eighth, percentile strikeout percentage

484
00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:45,040
Speaker 2: in the ninety second, percentile and he's still an outstanding

485
00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:47,520
Speaker 2: defender eighty six percent. Tile but look at a spray.

486
00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:50,440
Speaker 2: Chart barely ever hits the ball to right, field no

487
00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:53,520
Speaker 2: power to right field. Whatsoever everything's to left. Field and

488
00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:55,760
Speaker 2: a few of those would be outs At Yankee. Stadium

489
00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:59,480
Speaker 2: So i'm gonna go ahead and Pass adena On. No.

490

Speaker 1: Field the door already got the outfield both jacked.

503
00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:33,880
