good deal for the southsiders, one I did not see any value in even looking at....

another C.J. Wilson.....? The Pale Hose can have him....! Glad Cashman made no offers; a non-offer is a great offer (for Holland)...


excerpt from MLB Trade Rummors
It has been a tough and injury-riddled three-year run for Holland, who has managed to provide only 203 innings since the start of 2014. He hasn’t exactly been dominant when healthy, either, posting a 4.30 ERA with 5.9 K/9 against 2.5 BB/9 in that span.

Things began to turn south in the following season (2014), however, as knee and shoulder issues intervened.

In 2016, he sat nearly three full ticks below his peak average velocity (93.4 mph, in 2013), with a 7.8% swinging-strike rate that fell well below the ~10% mark he carried when at his best.
 
The Marlins acquire Brad Ziegler on a 2 Year, 16 Mill. Contract as per Ken Rosenthal.
 
Sounds like Cashman is ready to move Gardner....and Holliday will enable such a move, tho' Matt won't be playing LF daily either....

although, odd how these two stories, (1st one dated Dec. 8th, 2nd Dec. 9th) quickly begin to lose steam in just a day. Is is Gardner on the trade block or not???? More like an open ended question, maybe if the deal is right....???

Now if any is the time imo to trade Gardner, Ellsbury, Headley too (if possible at all), for Pitching, and more pitching....! The O's expect the Yanx to pay part of Gardner's contract, and I don't foresee that being a sensible business option, with attempts to curb over spending, and reduce the overhead payroll. I for one, don't foresee Cashman or Hal letting free dollars walk; which Baltimore expects

The Baltimore Orioles might be a possible landing spot for Brett Gardner if the New York Yankees decide to trade their leadoff man this winter, according to Jon Heyman of FanRag Sports.

However, Heyman writes that the Orioles would prefer their division rival cover some of Gardner's salary in any potential deal.

The 33-year-old outfielder will earn $12 million in 2017 and $11 million in 2018. His contract includes a $12.5 million club option in 2019 with a $2 million buyout attached.

Yankees GM Brian Cashman told reporters at the winter meetings that he "wouldn't be afraid to deal Brett Gardner within the AL East," per MLB.com's Bryan Hoch, who also reported that Baltimore manager Buck Showalter expressed doubts about Cashman's stance.

Gardner slashed .261/.351/.362 with seven home runs, 41 RBIs, 16 stolen bases and 80 runs scored last season.

The team for the 2017 season is all set…unless the Yankees do one thing over the last two months.


The Yankees have Matt Holliday as their DH / first baseman and Aroldis Chapman as their closer, and if the team doesn’t deal Brett Gardner over the course of the offseason, they’ll figure out the holes they need to fill in February.


While Yankees general manager Brian Cashman opened up the possibility, trading Gardner will not be easy. Cashman said a few days ago that he wasn’t comfortable moving the Yankees outfielder, either because they were going to lose that consistency in left field or an opposing team didn’t make a tempting offer.


The Yankees tried to move Gardner last offseason for a starter and struckout. However, not trading Gardner worked out in the Yankees favor as he was consistent at the top of the order and won a Gold Glove. As of right now, it’s more likely than not Gardner is in pinstripes once February 14 rolls around. I can’t be as sure about the July 31st trade deadline.

Despite the Yankees merely listening on offers regarding Gardner, the team has pulled Chase Headley from the trade market. It doesn’t mean the team isn’t going to try to trade Headley down the road, but for now Headley will be the Yankees third baseman in April
 
Phillies have acquired Clay Buchholtz from the Red Sox for Minor League 2B Josh Tobias as per Ken Rosenthal.
 
^^^^as Trashman ponders trading Gardner...........

Let's face it, the new face of the Yankees is Sanchez. Gardner's Yankee days are past history. He's not
what you would call the Yankee future. Same goes for Headley and Ellsbury. As for Trashman........
well, the guy never thinks outside the box. The operative word is thinks!

Cashman said they were looking into acquiring Jose Quintana from the White Sox but they want 2 Top Prospects. Which ones I don't know but I doubt it will even happen.
 
You know, Lillie, if Cashman had not had Miller & Chapman, and dealt them for a king's ransom.......
really where would the future Yankee talent be? I do not think he would start to trade those pieces
and help the White Sox farm system. Then again he's had considerable trouble obtaining quality
pitching through the draft. The guy plays Russian roulette one too many times. Really, I think it's
a game to him.
 
Honestly Cage, I am so sick of the Cashman/Girardi duo. They better not re-sign either one of them. It's time for the Youth Movement and new Management to shake this team up. This Shit every year is getting real old.

You Know Ron you are probably right. I hope all of those Idiots fawning over the Red Sox as Division Leaders are wrong and the Pink Hatters fall on their faces again.

...and that's precisely why I don't/won't give Cashman a pass. The very reason why he decided to trade Miller, Chapman, and Beltran for young talent was because Cashman was the one who put us in this mess in the first place.
...the last 3-4 years of mediocrity were born out of his poor decision making and inane contracts from the past.

I'll double down on that...... or, may I second that notion....?
 
...White Sox wanted Luis Severino, Jorge Mateo and Clint Frazier in return for Jose Quintana...uhhhhh, No.

...Quintana would be a great addition but that's way too high of a price.

No way in Hell would I do that trade for a Mediocre Pitcher.
 
Exactly. Cash man was able to make lemonade out of lemons, but he doesn't get a pass for buying a 7-8-9 trio and expecting to lead after 6 innings with a lineup saddled with a collection of albatrosses.

Cashman made the mess because he played the spend the farm and let it ride strategy his entire tenure as GM.

Jon Heyman ‏@JonHeyman 2h2 hours ago
Yanks did show interest in Quintana (@jonmorosi on it) but don't want to part w/frazier or Torres so likely a non-starter

Yeah, like that was ever happening. Bwahahahahahahahahahahah

Yeah Mel, didn't think Cashman would be that stupid. I do agree though they could use another Starter. We will have to see how CC, Crooked Cap, and Severino do in Spring Training. I'm sure Tanaka will be fine.
 
^^^thanx to Cashman, Tanaka can opt out after this upcoming season.
 
Pirates agree to a 3 Year 26 Mill. Contract with Ivan Nova as per Buster Olney.

I'm beginning to wonder what Plan Cashman is working too this yr.; perhaps, it's the "fly by the seat of your pants"- Plan,....

Cashman will have a 'king of the mountain' competition in ST; to determine who can pitch or should....
 
Whatever cashmere does he needs to hold the assets he got last trade deadline and keep the kids. Just keep moving the gardners, headleys and ellsburys for young pitching he can till a-rod and cc's contract off the books next year and then have youth and supplement that with a couple of free agent signings. Will be competitive although not championship caliber in 2017 as kids start to make their mark and get ready for 2018 when we should be a legit contender again. I for one am looking forward to watching guys like bird, sanchez judge. austin and any other young kids getting their feet wet next year.
 
I heard that Indians got Encarnacion, will post details as they come out.
 
Indians acquire Edwin Encarnacion with a 3 Year 60 Mill. Contract plus an Option as per Ken Rosenthal.
