cash only on the barrelhead, with 90 day guarantees, in case those don't work out, or hit like Drew.....???
...cash deal won't get it done...in fact, I can't remember the last time a player of any significance was sold outright to another team for cash only.
Good point, I noticed your 1st comment above, and your right, Cash doesn't flow like water......with cash strapped contracts on the verge of being out of control, if not out of control...... I admire the Astro's Farm System, and the way they have built from the ground up, of course coming in last place for years isn't a good trade off, to get those #1 Draft Picks...... Did King George's Kids learn anything from their Dad??? Makes me wonder....... IMO, George's beliefs changed over time and years, to a point He realized he couldn't have an entire team of costly Free Agents.....and began to build up his farm clubs, until he had a strong team of Homegrown talent(s), and would interject with a couple of Free Agents, (more a FA SP or two, and a Positional Fielder here or there)......"Now that's the ticket"....
Yankees GM Brian Cashman tells the Post’s George A. King III that he’s comfortable being aggressive or passing on asking prices he deems exorbitant this July. Interestingly, King writes that the industry belief, at present, is that the Blue Jays would be more willing to part with top prospects to land Cueto than the Yankees would. While there are no true untouchables in the Yankees’ farm system, King adds, Aaron Judge and Luis Severino “come close” to earning that label. Looking ahead by looking back, the Yankees are more likely to attack the deadline with their purse than their prospects, writes Joel Sherman of the New York Post. Taking on big contracts in exchange for lesser-regarded prospects has become a Brian Cashman MO, says Sherman. And the team has also tended to eschew the acquisition of major stars in favor of adding useful pieces to deepen its roster. Sherman says he expects a quiet deadline this time around.
Please tell me you're kidding, I thought for shit-sure it would have been Ryan. I guess Girardi & Cashman were just blowing smoke up our asses when they said they were going to give him a solid chance.
All I kept hearing & reading was that he would be given a fair chance. Sorry assholes but a dozen ABs is not exactly a FAIR chance.
Rick, its cashmans grand plan to showcase drew and ryan so they can trade these 2 studs for an impact player. ROTFLMAO. But seriously, at this point does anything cashman does really make you shake your head any longer. This BLOWS!!!!
What was it? Seven at bats and it's sayonara.....bai bai. What bullshit. Watching the bat glued to Drew's shoulder says it all about The Lying Hoods who man this empirical shitload ship.
