Yankees trade for De Los Santos.
He has swing and miss stuff.

Shawn Armstrong traded to the Cards by the Rays; Kevin Kiermeier going to the Dodgers from the Jays. And I assume that's Enyel de los Santos from the Padres to the Yanks, and not Yerry or Envision. Red Sox pick up releiver Luis Garcia from the Angels. De Los Santos was pitching well earlier in the year for the Padres, but has struggled lately, maybe the Yanks think that Blake can fix him too.
Dylan Carlson traded to the Rays, replacing Arozarena, I suppose.

Would you include Spencer Jones in a deal for Yandy Diaz or Jack Flaherty? That's what it will probably take. I would. I'm not sold on Spencer. Don't think so for Diaz for a childish reason. The Rays would fix him, and he'd torment the Yanks for 5-10 years. For Flaherty....maybe...dubious. Again, when heathy, he's good, but he's not always healthy, and he's not an impact guy. And also for this reason: because Jones' value is way down now. Maybe he never gains command of the zone, in which case, you've blown a chance to trade him for SOMETHING of value, but if they're going to trade him, they shouldn't do it while his value is down. The Rays literally run their organization on that as well as selling average players or slightly above average players when their value is highest, relying on their elite farm to have replacement ready. Yea on second thought, you're right. No point in selling low on Spencer.

De Los Santos ERA was 2.93 on May 20th, since then: 22 games, 22 innings, 26 hits, 15 runs, 14 earned, 8 BB, 25 K and 6 HR, a 5.73 ERA and a WHIP of 1.36.
FB of 95-6-7, and slider 86-7, both about 46-7% of the time, occasional change at 88. The slider has worked, the FB isn't working. Not sure what Blake can do with that.

Would you include Spencer Jones in a deal for Yandy Diaz or Jack Flaherty? That's what it will probably take. I would. I'm not sold on Spencer. No and no for me. I'm not sold on Jones, either; but there's a lot of raw potential there as he showed in the spring. For Flaherty, mainly because he's a rental. I like Diaz to a degree, but his numbers are down pretty significantly across the board this season, and approaching 33, he could very well be in decline. I don't see him as a significant upgrade to the lineup this year, and he could become more dead weight in the very near future if he continues trending down. On Diaz, he had a rough start to the year. In his last 60 games he's .295/.350/.463. In his first 37 he was .228/.288/.289, which is dragging the season numbers down. The start... very bad. The recent trend... very good and in line with career. You'd have to look into that start and get comfortable that but on the surface it seems like we should expect more of the recent numbers if we acquire him since his track record is in line with that too. The start really seems like just a blip that happens sometimes and he's on track to smooth out the numbers per his usual stuff. Rice had a nice little start culminating in the 3 HR game, but he's been trash since (sub .600 OPS since then) and it's not like he ever projected as a legit everyday option to begin with. Rizzo looked absolutely toast before he got hurt. If Diaz's recent trend and overall career numbers are to be expected going forward, he's definitely a big improvement on paper. Especially since he also specializes in a lineup spot (leadoff) that we can't seem to figure out in recent years. The possibility of him being "dead weight" is a bit unlikely since he's only signed through next year for a modest $10M and then a $12M team option. Now, prospect cost is a different argument. I don't scout. I don't pretend to know what I'm talking about there. But on paper, I do think he'd be a major offensive addition for us compared to what we got at 1B.

So far the Yankees got their 3Bman (Jazz). And, upgraded their bullpen even though I would have liked them to keep Neely.

Maybe Blake can teach him to but some more movement on his fastball. I think it was Clyde King that helped Ron Davis in a similar way.

Flaherty to the Dodgers is official, going for good catching prospect Thayron Liranzo and ex-Yankee prospect Trey Sweeney.
Liranzo is regarded as possibly a big power hitter, but there are questions about his ability to stay at catcher, especially his throwing arm, but he's also regarged as a weak receiver and framer. He's #4 in the Dodgers system and top 100 overall at Fangraphs. Sweeney was the guy the Yanks traded for Victor Gonzalez and Jorbit Vivas. The Dodgers' giving up on Sweeney, even for Flaherty, is interesting, they love to turn guys like him into Man Muncy types.
D"backs get Dylan Floro from the Diamondbacks. Orioles get Austin Slater from the Reds. What are the O's going to do with all these guys? Their lineup looked tough to me before they got anybody.

Dodger's and O's at least logically the Yankees biggest roadblocks to a Championship and both made major improvements. Yankees hoping the injured and old save them.

The Rule 5 draft shouldn't be an issue for them.
