Yanks-Cubs
Yankees receive Ian Happ, Victor Caratini and Oscar De La Cruz
Cubs receive Didi Gregorius, Brett Gardner and CC Sabathia
- I don't think the Yankees are focused on winning this year, so why not add more youth? Happ is a stud and can immediately start at 2B while moving Castro over to SS. Caratini and Cruz are both youngsters at postions of need for Yanks.
- Cubs get 3 starters to help make push for another WS. Didi slides in to short as a big upgrade over the struggling Russell. Gardner becomes your new leadoff man and every day LF. CC is having a solid year and can contribute in the back end of the rotation for the rest of the season. Thoughts?
FYI I'm a Yankees fan as well

IF your a Yankees fan, you're not a good one, this is terrible for them. Why trade Gregorius? He is still young and controllable. Gardner brings the value of the trade down a bit. Sabathia is hit or miss and is better off being the AL.
2.) 17 Jul 2017 15:58:58
Why trade Gregorius? Because Gleyber Torres > Didi.
3.) 17 Jul 2017 16:56:29
why on God's green earth would the Cubs consider this?
4.) 17 Jul 2017 16:57:02
Also, we knew very well you're a Yankees fan. No Cubs fan would consider this.
5.) 17 Jul 2017 17:08:29
you do realize they will move him, Torres to 3rd base, in fact that's what they have been talking about doing all season.
6.) 17 Jul 2017 17:10:25
No way do the Cubs do this. Happ is a top prospect who has already proven he can play at the top level and Caratini has a lot of upside and was the reason why they were able to let Montero go. Plus the Cubs don't need Didi, they have Russell who is a fine option at SS and they have no need for an aging Gardner, and C. C is having an ok year but he is old. The Cubs would say no to the Yankees right away.
7.) 17 Jul 2017 19:51:19
Cmessier really bring the cubs in discussions of trades.
8.) 18 Jul 2017 12:21:25
Why would the Cubs need another INF?
29 Jul 2016 15:42:15
Yankees trade anyone that the Angels want for Trout (except Betances) . Then sign Harper when he is a FA in a couple years. Easy enough Yankees fans.
1.) 29 Jul 2016 16:12:32
What's your point?
2.) 29 Jul 2016 16:43:19
Trout won't happen and you're talking about basically not having anything around him. Secondly while Harper to the Yankees after 2018 sounds like a big possibility its way to hard to predict 2 years from now.
3.) 29 Jul 2016 21:26:01
Harper will have his choice of suitors - about 30 of them.
4.) 30 Jul 2016 02:39:21
redsox guy
i agree. harper will wait till he hits free agency. he will get a lot more money that way
strasburg shouldve waited but i guess he chose the sooner money and harper will leave as the nationals can't afford both and it seems they chose strasburg over harper
harper will become the first $400 million player in 3 years and trout could be the first $500 million player when he becomes a free agent in 4 years.

NYY/ Tex
A Miller and Beltran for Gallo.
1.) 26 Jul 2016 15:50:34
Gallo and? They could get more Miller alone. What they got for Chapman, they could get more for Miller.
2.) 27 Jul 2016 01:31:38
Another horrible Miller trade.
3.) 27 Jul 2016 04:09:39
Please stop this is horrible.
25 Jul 2016 13:16:17
NYY/ Tex
Eovaldi for Gallo.
1.) 25 Jul 2016 13:40:44
Awful. TEX wouldn't give up Gallo for a number 5 starter.
2.) 25 Jul 2016 13:58:57
I doubt the Rangers give up Gallo for Eovaldi.
3.) 25 Jul 2016 16:39:24
Rangers would NEVER do that .
21 Jul 2016 18:19:03
NYY/ HOU
Bregman for Betances and possibly Beltran
Thoughts?
1.) 21 Jul 2016 20:12:13
Yanks say Nope.
2.) 22 Jul 2016 03:44:37
Yanks say yes.
3.) 22 Jul 2016 05:00:46
Yankees say and who else.
4.) 22 Jul 2016 17:57:43
Astros won't do this. Bregman is their 3rd baseman of the future and they are better off going after minor bullpen peices or other minor peices before the deadline.

More of a discussion question.
How do Machado, Correa and Seager stack up looking into the future?
1.) 19 Jul 2016 15:21:20
All potential HOF candidates if they stay healthy.
28 Jul 2017 13:09:15
Yanks wouldn't trade Mateo for Wilson straight up. not even close. Plus, the Yankees now have 5 dominant bullpen arms, they are not adding another. Try again.
27 Jul 2017 14:13:06
Yankees wouldn't trade Torres alone for those two.
26 Jul 2017 20:46:26
Yanks wouldn't trade Andujar for Neshek straight up. try again.
21 Jul 2017 17:43:54
this is a joke. Yankees wouldn't trade Torres for DeGrom straight up.
21 Jul 2017 17:42:33
Gray is not worth any of the Yanks top 5 prospects. not thanks.
