WE would need to have our heads examined to make such a trade = STUPID!!! Giving away to much for Kapler (RH and getting OLD)!!!
AND THIS:
Reports: Mets also raise concerns with Carlos Correa's physical exam, pausing $315 million agreement.
Kepler is 28… but his bat is getting old young… |

Solves Hicks Issue = TRADE him to Dodgers.
...L.A. would ideally like to add a left-handed or switch-hitter, and Reynolds fits the bill as someone who can bat from either side of the plate. He also requested a trade from the Pirates this offseason, but they are hesitant to move him without an overpay.

Hicks can certainly bat from both sides of the plate; he just can't hit from either. |

I would go with Cabrera in LF= Down the stretch, Cabrera played in 44 games, slashing .247/.312/.429 with six home runs while appearing in every position bar center-field and catcher.
Despite having played just 34 outfield innings in the minors, Cabrera spent the bulk of his big league time in the corner spots, impressing to the tune of 9 Defensive Runs Saved in 278 2/3 innings. While Cabrera certainly put a strong case forward to be an everyday outfielder going forward, he may have more value to the Yankees as utility-type given his ability to play just about any position.
But I also would sign to a 1-year deal Mancini (could be b-u for 1B too). Or have Florial as b-u LF
Peralta/Trey Mancini/Andrew McCutchen: The free agent market for left-fielders has been largely cleared out, but if the Yankees were to go down that path this trio of hitters would likely be the best remaining options. With perhaps the exception of Mancini, they could likely have these players on one-year deals. Peralta’s left-handedness could make him more appealing in Yankee Stadium, but ultimately all three have limitations that make it unlikely the Yankees would go down this route. At the end of the day, if the Yankees are to upgrade left field it’d surely be for someone that vastly improves their current options. The trade market certainly has those options, but it doesn’t appear that free agency does anymore.

Eovaldi finds a home....in Texas. That's likely a great outcome for both parties. I like Eovaldi and more than the disappointment that is Frankie Montas. |

Atlanta getting the prime years for a solid catcher. Not a Hall of Famer, but a good all-around backstop. |

Texas will have a good pitching staff especially with Mike Maddox back as the pitching coach. They should make the wildcard.
