Colome isn't Chapman, but he is somewhere in between. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Yankees pried Gleyber Torres away from our friends on the north side for the privilege of just three months of Aroldis Chapman. Granted, Chapman still was a tier above Colome, but the way Colome is going about his business so far this year, who knows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wegner Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Colome looks awesome. I am not saying to trade him but it only takes one team that thinks they are a closer away from a world series to net a good prospect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
