Yankees wont win another series vs anyone this year will they!? geez

They should go all out today to just win a damn series and get some confidence back. Should be all hands on deck for a win.

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

The Yankees would like either Darvish or Gray, but sources suggest they are intent on keeping their very top prospects – starting with Clint Frazier, Gleyber Torres and Justus Sheffield – which could inhibit their chances at either (though they have a deep system so it can’t be ruled out).

I would give up Sheffield for Gray, not Darvish. We could just sign him in the off season if they have interest in getting him.

Trade for Gray sign Darvish in the off-season.

Darvish
Severino
Gray
Tanaka
Montgomery/Adams/etc

Yeah I could get behind that lol.

I think I heard he was there last week too. Looks like the Yankees and A's are still in communication.

I still think with the major injuries to Noah and Ces, at this point it's best to retool this season. The Mets definitely have a couple of needs, and will have some more in the offseason. A smart trade deadline and a blessing from the doctors of the baseball gods will have the Mets poised for a really good season next year.

Conforto is having a breakout year, and the Mets have been playing really well altogether since the ASB. If Conforto keeps ripping it up the Mets could make it interesting, but i still think there can't be any dawdling at the deadline.

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

If the Yankees sent down Frazier, I don't care what reason they come up with, they're damn idiots.

Todd Frazier might suck as bad as Carter does

and he's playing 3rd base.. which Headley has been hitting over .300 since mid June... amazing..

I'm thinking he was just a throw in for Robertson and Kalhne?

more like a throwaway at this point.

 

[mrmovies779]

this ump has the smallest strike zone i have ever seen.

Yes he was. Kahnle was the centerpiece of that trade.

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

Robertson is pretty good himself, but yes, they get Robertson and Frazier without having to trade Blake. he went because of Kahnle.

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

We won a series! Hell has frozen over

About damn time

How much of a steal was Didi for the Yankees and Ray for the Dbacks? Tigers got hosed

One of the best trades Cashman has ever made. Absolute robbery.

If Kahnle turns into the right handed version of Andrew Miller, then I'll be alright that they traded Rutherford.

Still don't know how the Yankees scouted and found this guy. Major kudos to them.

Frazier isn't one of our top prospects - he's our left fielder.

Oakland can **** off with that one.
