That surprised me too, got to think with their pitching? They'd keep their assets in the bullpen.

Red Sox announced they'll be retiring Boggs' number next year. Pretty shocking, albeit well deserved.

Chapman traded to the Yankees for 4 "non-elite" minor leaguers.

Assuming they don't trade Miller, that bullpen is absolutely badass.

Why trade to improve your greatest strength?

But I am not complaining. I will take Chapman

Now the 7th, 8th and 9th are taken care of...kinda Royals-like.

Miller could still be traded however.

Well in a sense it could help mask/mitigate the shortcomings from the rotation next season...I mean, it would ease the pain of having a starter not go deep into games, which could certainly happen a lot next year (and hence potentially turn it into a 5-6 inning ballgame).

Chapman and Miller? That's a great bullpen, will it get he Yankees back to the playoffs though?

Chapman and Betances. I have a feeling Miller ends up in Miami with Nova. The only question is how much more we send them for Fernandez.

Fernandez to the Yankees? Would the Yankees have the prospect depth needed to go for Fernandez?

It is a good question and is being discussed between the teams.

The Jays got Drew Storen yesterday, fixing a need for the bullpen, had to give up Revere though which could hurt.

Can they start games too? Have be to able to get the ball to that bullpen with a lead
