Salary dump out not Grisham is a Yankee Dud because of Cashman. How's that?? I believe you've said Cashman should hand Soto a blank check. Should he have refused to take Grisham and lost Soto as a result? I believe at this point Cashman should offer Soto a blank check to stay. I said before the trade I did not really see Soto play before and I love watching him this year. He might not be the best OFer to play the game BUT he is a generational player.
As for the trade, Cashman was an absolute moron to rent Soto for one year with no guarantee he would stay.

This now could be a Cashman Ego situation. He would have to DFA a trade piece he made and it would be considered a fail. He has shown he would keep an under performing player and keep Jasson in AAA if it meant not admitting a mistake. Cashman didn't trade for Grisham...San Diego required Yanks take him as part of the Soto deal as a salary dump. Did Grisham get that $$$ after an arbitration win ? That was a big deal for a guy coming off a down year. |

Sorry...having trouble following your "logic"... What does any of that have to do with Grisham? |

OK...you believe Cashman shouldn't have made that trade. Gotcha... |

I believe the trade should have been made but with no guarantee should have played a little hardball. No one can go back in time but if he is one an done it's a epic fail.

Looks like Nestor will be pitching out of the bullpen.

Aren’t we still paying for Aaron Hicks? |

If such guarantee means that Soto would have to sign a contract extension before any trade was made, in my opinion either Dominguez or Jones would have had to be included in such a trade. I understand what you're saying, I don't like when the Yankees trade for players in their contract years. But, for what the Padres took for Soto, Cashman had to make that trade. |

I've had the late 70's, I've had the late 90's, I've had 2009. I would love Championships every year but having Judge and Soto back to back for years is something I would love to see. Fire Cashman and the entire staff and start developing major league talent. I don't want to let Soto go so we can sign other teams starts develop our own from know on.
