Yankees Got PRADO....

[JeterRules20]

Yes....

 

[JeterRules20]

It is confirmed. Don't know for who yet.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

When did that pop up, had not heard when I walked away from the idiot box at 4 PM?

 

[JeterRules20]

Just announced on twitter...

 

[Pastafazul]

dont we need a legit starter, why all these position players? what da fook is this org doing? season is lost anyway so what are these moves.......

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Prado can be one hell of an asset, guy plays a multitude of positions to include 1st base. Give Girardi a bit more flexibility but the Yankees starting staff still needs some help.

 

[Rick2583]

Actually I'd be okay with Prado. A 30 year old career 290 hitter with some pop 10-15 HRs that can play 3rd, 2nd & some outfield.

 

[yankeesince59]

...is it mar-TEEN or mar-TIN Prado?....lmao.

 

[yankeesince59]

...no more Roberts?

 

[totus44]

...is it mar-TEEN or mar-TIN Prado?....lmao.

Si senior

 

[yankeesince59]

...prado/drew > johnson/roberts

That would all depend on where he's from. Don't you know anything Ron?

 

[totus44]

...prado/drew > johnson/roberts

Hmmmm....but what offsets (-) Nova, (-) Pineda, (-) CC and (-) Tanaka ?

 

[Rick2583]

...prado/drew > johnson/roberts

IMO I think this is a wash. Prado is better then both Johnson & Roberts while Drew is worse then Johnson & Roberts.

 

[yankeesince59]

...pineda and tanaka return ?...and pineda/tanaka > cc/nova

...but drew won't be an every day player...roberts pretty much was...and prado is a definite upgrade.

 

[totus44]

...pineda and tanaka return ?...and pineda/tanaka > cc/nova

Sadly someone in the front office also thought that.

 

[yankeesince59]

...I don't see how they could have landed a front end starter, much less 2 of them.

Not without trading away the future captain Gardner and Betances.

 

[yankeesince59]

...I really thought that Betances or D-Rob might be traded.
