Holmes, Jon-Lo, Hamilton, Gil, Krook, Ramirez, Poteet, Morris, Marrinaccio, Effross, Kahnle, Gonzalez. That's 12 pitchers for 8 roster openings. If that's not depth then what is.
King became a starter, and Gonzalez takes Perelta's place.
Let's hope it's not quantity over quality. I see a bunch of question marks in that list. I still think we bring in a more established BP arm. I am usually in the minority here on this issue, but I really like Clay Holmes and wouldn't be surprised to see more consistency from him this season. He's had a full two seasons with his new repertoire and that two-seamer. Sometimes, I believe he over-relies on it, when he also has a great slider. I like it when he mixes his pitches, then that two-seamer is nearly impossible to lay off and to hit. Another great pick up the Yankees made for the bullpen was Ian Hamilton. His demeanor on the mound is almost Mariano-esque. He's unafraid to challenge batters with that unique pitch he has. He was missed when he was on the IL for a brief stint last season. King will definitely be missed, but quality is the cost for someone like Soto. Peralta was starting to look a bit shaky last season, after coming to the Yankees and becoming a mainstay. This was probably the correct time to let him walk. Marinaccio is the brain-stumper for me. I never expected that he would lose his command. He is definitely a question mark for me after his abysmal performance in the minors. Effross (and the horse he rode in on) looked solid until his injury. Having him back to what he was may be too much to ask right away. I really like the Wrath of Kahnle, but my goodness throw the fastball to set up the change-up. Too many three plus change ups in a row - it's called a change of pace for reason. Gil impressed me when he arrived straight from AA at 23 years old (hard to believe that was 2021), so I am really pulling for him to stake his claim to big club for good. |

When Holmes is right he’s pretty incredible. There’s a guy that was a great pick up… Peralta either lost the strike zone or hitters stopped swinging at stuff they used to swing at… |

I like Holmes. He struggles with command once in awhile but he's nasty. He didn't have as many opportunities but he did have a higher save percentage than Hader last year. If Hader comes to NY and blows a couple games, fans will be all over him. Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately) the great Rivera has us spoiled.

Holmes is good but i am not convinced he is consistent enough to be a closer , i think he would be better in the set up role |

Same as the Inf Depth ... Is it quality depth or is it just warm bodies ??? Im My opinion these guys are either terrible or unproven Krook, Ramirez, Poteet, Morris, Marrinaccio, Ramirez and Poteet are dumpster dives ... any team could have had them if they wanted them
I already address the Yankees infield depth with you. You seem to have the same issue with the Yankees middle relievers. Backups, 12th, and 13th pitchers aren't going to be all stars, some might not even be proven players. It's quality, not quantity, 6 players that I mentioned helped the Yankees have one of the best Pens in MLB. In my opinion, that's saying a lot for a team without a shutdown Closer.
King was going to start anyway. Looks like they won't re-sign Peralta, but Gonzalez is a good pitcher, so is Effross. Morris has potential and I'm confidant the Blake can help him reach his potential.
So quim, is it really that much out of the question that the Yankee might trade a reliever or two to shed some payroll? Also...Who in your opinion is going to leave the Yankees 40 man roster?

I agree, Holmes is pretty incredible when he's right. It's the times that he comes into a game and starts throwing the ball 2 feet off the plate that I don't care for.  |

I like Holmes better as a 7th or 8th inning reliever. Some Yankee fans are all over every Yankee, those fans should calm down. Booing Judge in the postseason after he hit 62 HRs in the regular season was embarrassing to watch/hear. Nothing positive comes out of booing Yankees. Yep, Rivera spoiled us.

I would boo obvious lack of effort but that's about it. |

It costs a fortune to go and watch . As a paying customer you have the right to voice your displeasure . And booing does just that |
