You're not satisfied with his 88 OPS+ the last two seasons?

Even if you don't find someone in free agency, I'd rather just give another shot to Ben Rice.

He's a better Mark Ellis. And I mean that as a compliment, Ellis was a very solid major leaguer

So Cole opts out, doesn't get the extra year added but agrees to his old deal anyway?

That's pretty fucking odd I have to say.

Sounds like he got bad advice from his agent and decided to go against him.

Bad advice from Boras you say? Hope Soto is paying attention

He will stay with the Yankees...

Maybe there weren’t enough teams to afford his contract and interest was limited….Should have let him opt out and signed Burnes…..

Boras has ruined the game and perhaps teams are now saying STFU to him

Sounds like they did. He opted out and then said just kidding lol. I can't believe interest would be limited, but they seem to have called Boras' bluff.

Wish they did that with ARod about 15 years ago

Teams have been staying away for a few years...

Players, too...

Red Sox heard that Nick Pivetta was drawing interest from other teams, so they gave him the qualifying offer... hopefully the draft pick doesn't scare teams away...

Aaron Boone will return for an 8th season as the Yankees manager. The club has exercised its 2025 option.

What a fucking spectacular week

Wander Franco has(apparently) now been involved in an armed altercation in addition to his existing sex abuse issues. Has any athlete squandered more talent than this guy? He looked like he was going to be one of the biggest superstars of this entire era. What a fall….
