Of all places upstate NY. That is where I am from.

Enjoy Jill & have a safe & happy holiday.

NY state of mind......wave hi to Troy for me.

 

[blgridesagain]

Wait....why would Tulo go to the Mets? Right city, wrong club.

______________________________

Hold on... do these rumors of a "something big" concern Tulo to the Yanks? lmao

Are the Yankees crazy? No, wait - if Colorado wants to pay most of his salary in exchange for a couple of "B" prospects - then okay, maybe.

...lol...enjoy the snow.

...hell, it's 50 degrees down here, and we don't even handle that kind of temperature very well.

 

[JeterRules20]

Trade has happened. What do we all think?

[JeterRules20]

At first glance I am not a fan at all. Anyone else?

 

[yankeesince59]

...I was just about to post this...not sure what i think at the moment...I liked Prado.


...maybe the other shoe has yet to drop.

 

[JeterRules20]

I read they may pursue Asdrubal Canberra to play 2nd base.

 

[Rick2583]

Prado (2nd base, 3rd base & OF) is 31 & due 22M over the next 2 seasons. On a full year he's projected at 13/70/290
Jones (RF & 1st base) is 33 & due 5M in 2015. On a full season he's projected at 20/75/253

For the money you have to go with the lefty Garrett Jones though I do hate losing Prado who IMO was the type of player the Yankees needed.

The Nathan Eovaldi I just don't get. This kid just looks bad. Granted he's only 24 but in 4 seasons he's 15-35 with a career ERA over 4 but we'll see.

 

[yankeesince59]

...^^^ they may use him out of the pen...helluva FB and breaking ball.

...I'll reserve judgment on this till it all shakes out.

 

[BigDaddyAl1973]

gave up the most hits in the National League..yeah that is someone you want pitching in Yankee Stadium...not a fan of this trade

 

[yankeesince59]

...Yanx also got Domingo German in the deal...

...promising.

[totus44]

Greene and Phelps gone, plus did not resign McCarthy. Better get Scherzer and Shields at this rate.

So are Rick and Rob, even they have their uses.

...lol...and neither is on the Yanx' roster.

I seriously doubt even the short porch will help the Yanx with Garrett Jones, period. He's struck out in triple digits, 5 years in a row now....!

With Domingo German its hard to get a read on, only 22, and 5 years in Single A Minors only in that time....not sure what to make of Domingo..~

 

[Rick2583]

IMO Prado was in that Paul O'Neill type mode. I would have rather kept him.

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Define BIG! I'd settle for a $61M buyout.

You mean like in Pauly didn't cuss, drink or smoke?

Or the only PEDS He used were Pepsi, Excedrin, Double-Bubble, and Sugar?

Or he had the moves like Pauly? excuse me, that's "he's got the moves like Jagger"...!
