Over Hicks? Nah. For all the Dirt hate, guy was 5th in baseball, #2 in the AL for CF OPS.

OF's gonna be really crowded. Judge, Hicks, Gardner, Ellsbury, Frazier, and who knows, maybe Harper.

Forgot about Frazier lol

A DFY fan friend of mine is convinced the Yankees are going to trade Stanton to the Dodgers and sign Harper.

DFY? I've heard MFY.

Dunno. Dodgers are already at $173M for 2019. Taking on Stanton would put them right at the threshold in one fell swoop.

Too late. Gardner re-signed for $7M

Happ should be a priority, as well as Corbin.

Britton's gonna go somewhere he can close, and I think McCutchen's going to go somewhere where he knows he'll be an everyday player.

CC will be interesting. They'll make him a 1 year offer based on what they think he's worth, but it wouldn't shock me if someone beats their offer.

I know the Jays want Happ back as well.

I get the sense that CC really wants to play in NY. I don’t think he leaves for more money.

Can't find it now, but over the summer he made some noise that he would be pitching next year, and if it's not in NY so be it.

Love CC, and what he's done since he's been a Yankee, but they need starters they can count on for more than 4 or 5 innings.

I think he'd be more than willing to take less to stay in NY. I hope the Yanks do resign him.

Think the Yankees go for Machado and Corbin.

Good to have him back......

Great guy, clubhouse glue and all that happy horseshit, but if he can't get through the 4th inning on a semi-regular basis then I don't see this as a huge boost.

Need to re-sign Happ, lock down Corbin, and try to pry one of those Indian pitchers loose.

I'm going to be livid if they don't address starting pitching.

A starting 5 of Sevy, Tanaka, Happ, Corbin, & CC/Jordan sounds good
