Oh great, and now everybody is wondering what the Nationals have to do to lock up Juan Soto. And Soto has years under his belt so it is most likely going to be less years but around the same total 10/$300 mill I still think is fair It is also highlights how badly ATL took advantage of Acuna Albies too. Acuna was an absolute steal. Could have named his price after this deal.

Gardner is back to the Yankees on a 1/$4 mill deal with a club option
This comes on the helms after Boone said yesterday that Fraizer is the left fielder for the Yankees so Gardner will be the bench OF which means Tauchman and Jay Bruce is fighting for that other spot
Considering Judge and/or Stanton usually end up injured and Hicks as been hit too, they got a ton of OF depth to work with but if everyone is healthy, you got a pretty good OF

At this point, I wonder if Gardner has incriminating photos of Cashman. The right move would've been to get Michael Brantley from Houston, but nooooooo... gutty, gritty Gardner over and over until he's Julio Franco's age.

Gardy's going to be a good option from the bench as either a defensive replacement, filling in for someone's day off, or even a desperation pinch-runner. And hopefully Judge's and Stanton's new workout regimen that de-emphasizes weight training will mean they can stay healthy for a yewar.

I've never cared for Gardner, tho I respect his abilities but Yankees clung on to his nut hairs for a long time At the very least, this won't be a Jeter situation where we got to pretend he is still very good and watch him blow at bats in his final year

Since they got him so cheaply is more so why they brought him back Pisses me off they didn't do the same for Tanaka but most likely Tanaka price tag was higher but he said he would love to come back to Yankees so there is no hard feelings

Considering Tanaka went back to Japan, I'm guessing he was either homesick or no one was willing to pay what he wanted.

The earlier reports of him going back to Japan unless he was going back to NY seems to make sense He said in his press conference that he has a clause that if a MLB offer comes his way he can leave and that he hasn't closed the door on the Yankees As a number 3 guy on your roster, I think Tanaka is still worth $8-12 mill a year on a 3 year deal. I think if Mets would have offered Tanaka a deal he would stayed just to be in NY but didn't seem like he wanted to move elsewhere

Matt Harvey and Felix Hernandez to O's on Minor league deals Matt Harvey really went from the Dark Knight to George Clooney Batman. That WS f***ed him up Honestly, it wasn’t the World Series; dude got thoracic outlet surgery and the Wilpons, in all their infinite wisdom, completely botched allowing him to recover...but even if he had more time it’s possible he was never going to fully bounce back from that, it’s a massive surgery for a pro athlete to get. Referencing something from a few pages back, the PECOTA projections are often pretty good, but no way do I see Atlanta only winning 82 games this year. In fairness though, PECOTA admits they’ve had a hellacious time trying to predict how good the Braves are ever since they moved into their new park, even underestimated them by about 19 wins a few years ago. I’m still figuring it’ll be Mets/Braves fighting for the East, but there are no pushovers in that division so anyone getting to more than 95 wins feels like it’ll be really tough, even the Marlins, who I feel got very lucky last year, have a lot of pitching with really high potential.

Ian Desmond opts out of 2021 season
He opted out of the 2020 season due to COVID and is doing the same again
It is the last year of his deal with a team option next year so he is most likely done with the Rockies if he doesn't return

In fairness, Bell had fallen off and Pirates sold low But this is the complete reverse of a modern NBA trade. If you want a star like Arenado, Snell, Lindor etc in the NBA you need picks and pick swaps Because owners are being so cheap, they are selling their players for 75 cents on the dollar and not getting a proper return
