Good depth signing and CC gets to go out at as a Yankee but the team still needs a upgrade in the rotation either through free agency or via trade.

But I think it's reasonable to expect CC to do in 2019 what he did in 2018: league average or better for 140 innings, or so and be a great presence in the clubhouse. As a #5 starter, the Yanks could do worse for $8mil. Sheffield, Loaisiga, etc. provide depth.

Ray, Corbin, Carrasco, Kluber...Somebody’s going be acquired in one way or another. Probably no one on that list, because Cashman is a stealth shopper... But somebody’s gonna be Yankee...

Severino Tanaka Sabathia
Now, sign Corbin, Eovaldi, and Happ. You can never have enough starting pitchers. After Sabathia retires next year, a rehabilitated Montgomery can slide back into the rotation.

"YOU SAID WHAT?" We re-signed CC???!!!
Thank God, this weekend I picked-up two used wheelchairs that my workers are currently restoring/repairing.
As soon as they are finished, I will send them to the Yankees; One for Gardner & One for CC. I might throw-in a couple of Walkers & Crutches for other Retreads they might sign.
It would be like Google hiring two Blacksmiths to develop their Search Engine, etc.
If this was Mo (The Sandman) I could understand the move...but these moves are based on $$$ = STUPID.
Maybe the Yankees have found Religion and are praying for Miracles when it comes to these two signings???
Very disturbing for Tequila & Myself...very disturbing.

Don't worry Dome, Cashman just signed two zygotes and has acquired the rights to 28 unfertilized eggs from a clinic in San Pedro de Macoris. It all balances out.

Great decision. Reasonable contract for a guy who contributed last year on and off the field.

Fine, but in DomeWorld the zygotes and 23 of the unfertilized eggs should make up the 2019 roster...*PROSPECTS*...The other 5 eggs would be the starting rotation at AAA, ready to step in if a yolk on the MLB roster should be broken... Form an egg carton and HOLD< HOLD<HOLD...
