if you sign someone like goldy you do so to play him full time against all pitchers.I see Walker in the same boat as Goldschmidt and Santana. Aging Right hand hitting defensive 1B. Last year they all hit HR between 22-26. Last year they all hit between .238-.251. The difference is Sanatana and Goldschmidt probably except 1 year deals in the 7 figure range rather than multiple years for 8 figures.
Do you still like Walker better if it means the Yankees can't afford Bellinger? Do you still like Walker if it means the Yankees don't have as much to offer Tucker after the season?
Goldschmidt and Sanatana could be R/L platooned with Ben Rice to keep them fresh, or Bellinger could push him to the bench if Dominguez earns full time duty in CF. A lot more flexibility now and in the future with this lineup.
Part of the Soto money already went out the window with Fried, but if you read my initial and follow up posts we are also trading for Tucker. So, yes, they probably could afford and would get both Walker and Bellinger if they didn’t pursue Tucker, but if they had Tucker, Walker becomes a hinderance on their ability to resign Tucker.if you sign someone like goldy you do so to play him full time against all pitchers.
walker is younger than goldy by a few years and is at his prime of his career.
goldy's numbers have been declining for the past 3 years.
why can't the yankees afford to get bellinger and walker? if they could afford soto surely they could land both of these guys.
lol and a security detail is included.
f*** this guy honestly
If the stuff I read about politics is true than Soto is really soft. Hoping it wasn't true. Sounded too ridiculous to be true for a grown pro athlete.It just doesn't seem like he was particularly happy here. The Yankees made a competitive offer.
That's a bunch of tabloid horseshit.If the stuff I read about politics is true than Soto is really soft. Hoping it wasn't true. Sounded too ridiculous to be true for a grown pro athlete.
Hope you are right.That's a bunch of tabloid horseshit.
Amonst a bunch of rich men, support for the president-elect has to be around 70-80%, and close to 100% from the owners.
You're not going to run to a team with a different view. This isn't soccer where you have a derby between the union's team and the king's team.

Cohen is a Trump contributor, and not a small one. That type of thing usually isn't particuarly hidden.Hope you are right.
That is good to hear.Yall got duped by misinformation on Twitter
That screenshot/snippett about Trump and Yankee players with a dubbed Scott Boras quote isn't real. Just made up by Twitter bots
LOL they are all friends... SureCohen is a Trump contributor, and not a small one. That type of thing usually isn't particuarly hidden.
Of course he would be. There's only 760 billionaires and they're all friends.

The fake news in question implied that Soto went to the Mets because he's liberal. All I'm saying is Soto did not exactly just sign for a WNBA team, believe me.
And who almost all of the owners support is of fairly public knowledge.
I know exactly what he's referring to and I said it's not real lolThis image, purportedly a snippet of a Passan article, is going around X and probably what @NickyFotiu saw and was referencing
It’s not real. not in the article, made up.
It just doesn't seem like he was particularly happy here. The Yankees made a competitive offer.
This is not a good analogyWhy are people so up in arms about Soto's request for a free suite? If our company produces widgets and refuse to give employees a discount on said widgets, doesn't that seem petty?
It was more so "I haven't talked to anybody since the season ended and they haven't talked to me."That's not my read on it, personally.
My read is more that he was simply gonna go to whomever catered to his demands the most and gave him the most money.
The fact that he was a Yankee previously and went on a WS run wasn't at all a factor, but again it's not that he didn't specifically like the Yankees or being a Yankee. I could be wrong.
With the details coming out about the paid stadium suite and contract lifetime security detail for his family, it's clear he just wanted the most he could get, and the Mets were gonna be the only ones to give him all that.

There's no political implication. When I said they probably know each other I meant that they probably know each other.you wanna check the implication here? Pretty sure Cohen has donated to dems and republicans, trump during the inauguration of his first term, and much more significantly democratic congressional PACs and hochul (to get casino build going).
My niece works for netflix and has to pay full price for a sub.Why are people so up in arms about Soto's request for a free suite? If our company produces widgets and refuse to give employees a discount on said widgets, doesn't that seem petty?
