His bat speed is unreal Id go with Tucker as well at the dish now but think Ruth might develop into a better overall hitter.

flavum Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 If a trade happens tonight, it would qualify as a Festivus Miracle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheFutureIsNear Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 Yankees get: McCutchen Pirates get: Q and Nate Jones White Sox get: Tyler Glasnow, Josh Bell, Jorge Mateo, Ke'Bryan Hayes, Chance Adams, and Dustin Fowler Ehh?? Pirates improve their pitching all around at a very reasonable cost controlled price without completely gutting their system while also shedding Cutch's salary. Pirates shuffle the Mateo, Adams, and Fowler package they get from the Yankees for Cutch over to us to supplement keeping most of their own prospects. Yankees make a splash move that makes them a lot better without giving up any of their main pieces in the minors. And the White Sox get a haul.

( poop ) There's no way I'm dealing Q and Jones for that package, Jones is very valuable on his own. I think I like Frazier least out of all the proposed headliners I've seen.

Sometimes its best to not saying anything till they say. Similar to bucket not saying anything about the Shark deal until it was close to finalized. To be fair, none of this seemed to make any sense at all for the Yankees. Even if they're competing next year, it's unlikely they'd trade prospects for a rental. I think that maybe all this stuff today was to put some heat on another team to up the ante, ala the Nationals leaks during the Winter Meetings.

Southwest Sider Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 (edited) And don't the "leakers" like rabbit and WSD need authorization to actually leak the info? Otherwise I'd bet the sources would stop giving them information. This was definitely a controlled leak, for some reason or another.

reiks12 Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 If it was a controlled leak to entice another club (astros) then why involve the yankees at all. Throw something believable at them.

I've been on Soxtalk long enough to see alot of deals and rumors/leaks either good and goes through or get shot down or damaged one way or another.
