    Fatcessa says any trade for tulo starts with a package that includes Betances. Anyone here that would include betances to get tulo?

    I think Tulo will be a Yankee, I also believe money will be the major factor, Betances stays. too bad we couldn't have Cashman interest them in Kelley Johnson.

    ...No, and I don't think Fatcessa heard it either...he's likely just flapping his gums, as usual.

    I'm not sure what the Yankees can offer that's good enough if Betances is not part of the offer.

    Tulo will not be a Yankee. Wishful thinking. Let's pray for Utley, Hamels and either Rios or Byrd.

    I love Betances, but for Tulo I'd give up anyone not named Tanaka

    Geez, NO letting Betances go. Severino is attractive, yet I wouldn't go trade him away, until he's proven...and road tested. Only if, he did NOT pan out, would I ever consider letting Severino go either.

    ...considering the current uncertainty of Tanaka's health, hell, contract for contract, I'd trade Tanaka for Tulo even up.

    Actually there salaries are very similar, Tanaka is due $110M between 2015-2019 ($22M per) And Tulo is due $100M between 2015-2019 ($20M per)

    So well make the trade even up & when he opts out for the Rockies we'll sign him back.

    I don't think Robertson has a year left. I believe he's an UFA at the end of this season.

    Yep, your right Rick, Robertson is a UFA after this season. A decent trading chip....!

    Hell, trade chips: I'd throw in the 1st born of all Steinbrenner's, let them con the Rockies ownership into thinking they know something about MLB.....!!!

    Tanaka's news is a big mystery to the public it seems, or at least on my end.

    he could come back and be lights out, or we may of seen the best of him, only time will tell.

    If the Yanx can't use him the rest of this year, and I really doubt they can or will. If the Yanx did use Tanaka this year, it would be the end of him, IMO, or be disastrous either way.......We could use Tulo's immediate help, DH Derek, and use Tulo's God Given Incredible Talents, to win a pennant and forward march....

    And that's my point Rob, I mean if you have any chance of getting someone of tulo's talents you have to just open up the door & say, "Shops open, take your pick".
