Hard to imagine he uses it, but he ever did, give him a thank you for your service, and let someone else pay him.

Too early to tell on Machado and Harper.
Pujols and Prince were bad.
ARod probably not worth it, but not as bad as Pujols/Prince.
Cano was worth it I think.

He's pretty crappy now, but he was the best 2B besides Altuve for the majority of the contract IMO.

The only one that was worth it was ARod. The others were all bad. Harper/Machado TBD.
What gets ARod the nod over Cano?
Cano (2014-Present): $132m and 24 bWAR
ARod(2008-2016): $226m and 23.3 bWAR

The 10-252 was his contract from 2000-2007 (with opt out). It ran through 2007 and he put up 66 WAR. His second big deal did not work.

Change is good.
Yankees’ 3 biggest FA pitching signings to date are : Tanaka, Sabathia, and Mussina. I’m good with this.
Cano's 10-year deal was not worth it. It played out exactly how most of us thought it would. His first 5 years of that deal were good, and the last 5 look like it'll be terrible.

I am beyond happy. Time for the team to start spending again. Enough p***y-footing around

You knew this was coming the minute Cole, a player the Yankees have loved for a decade, kept them from the World Series.
If ever there was a final nail in the coffin, that was it.

Monty is going to be very good next year as the 5th starter is my call.
Now bring back Dellin. Move Happ. Look into another reliever like Treinen.
If they do not package Andujar for Lindor or get Lindor period, they need INF depth. In the mold of a DJ that can play all around the INF.
There are some good options out there, Zobrist, Kipnis, Shaw, Holt. Those are the targets.
Catcher. If Romine is not coming back I do not want Higgy as the backup. There are options here for a vet backup. Russell Martin reunion and Matt Wieters. A couple more.
Lastly i think it comes down to Gardner or Pillar for CF. Maybe an outside possibility of Alex Gordon.
Lets go Cash tighten this up now

I wouldn’t mind a defensively responsible catcher whose more of a contact hitter to replace Gary Sanchez. Every year I’m waiting for him to turn the corner and he hasn’t.
I assume they’ll resign Gardner for a year.
Pie in the sky would be dealing for Lindor, but I doubt the Yankees are throwing out another mammoth deal with Torres and Judge still to be paid, and Stantons massive deal.

I'd trade Sanchez AND Andujar if it meant improving defensively and more contact/OBP hitters.

Woof, Cano wasn’t worth it. Tested positive for PEDs and last half of contract will be brutal when all is said and done. If he led his team to a title you could make an argument, but not as it stands. It’s not too bad for Seattle only bc BVW is a joke and rescued them, but the contract in general, is lousy.

Too bad Andujar is coming off an injury and I feel like Sanchez is only dropping in value. I wouldn’t have a problem packaging those guys along with a Frazier for the right piece.

Here's the latest I could find from the Post.

Seems like we'll know end of this month/early January?
Haven't seen anything definitive though.
