    Ill take Harper over machado everyday of the week. Pitching help is going to be an issue that most likely can only come from a trade..most likely miggy would have to go....or...sanchez

    Andujar: hits and hustles, his "D" will get better, keep him away from A-holes help.

    Judge: best all around cowboy in the Yankee Rodeo,

    Machado & Harper, need not apply, go anywhere but NY AL. Philly has openings.

    Yanks need harper and that lefty bat more than machado and his run when he feels like attitude. Harper is all out hustling all the time. Heard Boras with mike kay yesterday and he said harper is all set already where he's going but of course didn't say to who as that would be tampering city. He and machado IMO can only go to yanks, phils, cubs or nats as no other team can afford them.

    Agree. The left handed bat would certainly help.

    I'm more interested seeing how they upgrade the pitching rotation.

    Will they re-sign Happ?
    Will they sign another left hander in a guy like Patrick Corbin?
    Will they go big and trade for a stud like de Grom or Bumgarner?

    Video shown of Machado "blowing a bubble" and stepping on Pearce did not put that flake in good light. Pretty important AB as well but old Manny was slow getting out of the gate and chewing his cud. Been more than a few articles mentioning his lack of hustle and Machado admit he's not a "hustling guy". And people want him on the Yankees. Harper has been called down for that "attribute " as well. So imagine both of them aboard. Two big hot dogs needing mustard along with Speedy Sanchez and Slop Stick Stanton managed by Boner in the daily line up, Jesus Christ my pending 64th year of fandom would go right out the window. I recall Judge allegedly telling Manny he'd look good in Pin Stripes, I wonder if he ever told Andujar how much he appreciated his hustle in pinstripes.

    Xlnt point.
    I can imagine how Andujars feeling right now with his name in most papers..
    Bet he's wondering WTF do I have to do to keep my job in NY??

    Trashman has no clue. He needs to shit or get off his everyone Less Judge, is disposable Jackass ride/kick. Either let Miggy know upfront he's trade bait, or give the kid a vote of confidence and a bit of a raise too. That will never happen....

    Andujar needs to learn to catch the ball and more importantly throw the ball to first on a fly. The guy I'd like to see us go after in a trade is snell as legroom and baumgarner imo our pipe dreams.

    Just for shits & giggles I pulled up the list of pending free agents. Damn there are some old guys that best hope their team makes them an offer. If Kershaw gets his butt kicked tonight he'll probably be out there with them. Cashman would be dumb enough to sign him telling us he (Kershaw) has post season experience.
