    A fellow Tweeter, what's your SN ????

    I base a person's character, by whether they follow Trump or not. The man's revealed he's a psychopath via Twitter....

    If the Yankees include Miguel Andujar in a Trade for Gerrit Cole then Pirates could include Josh Harrison as per Bronx Bombers Beat.

    I think the frazier and adams part of the deal is done. Whats left is how good a player the 3rd player going back to the pirates is.

    ...If that's true, I'm not overwhelmed by this trade idea at all. I'm concerned about Cole's numbers declining the last 2 years and how well he might or might not transition to the AL...and as far as Harrison, he's a good player but not much of an upgrade over Headley if that's where he would play...a career .321 OBP is not inspiring to me.
    ...of course, on the flip side maybe the Yanx are looking at Harrison as a "plan B" at 2B or 3B if Torres does not pan out...or as a platoon player because he's considerably better vs LHed pitching. And though some of Cole's numbers are down he's an innings eater and is still striking out batters at the same rate.

    ...all in all, I give this trade possibility a sphincter factor of 6 out of 10 .

    exactly, for 3 studs or prospective studs....

    Imo, the Bucs wan't to much for a sub-par SP. Yeah he can eat innings, but can't seem to keep balls in the park. 31 Hr's last yr, imagine what he's going to give up to the short porch.

    I can handle Frazier, Adams, but another, a 3rd, and Andujar at that. The Bucs wanted Torres, (but then who doesn't).... Imo, Trashman can do better....

    Sphincter Factor 9 out of 10 for me...

    10 of 10 for our GM...

    Hell, just taking Cole off of the Buc's hands should count for something, tho' he's not making a lot of $$$. Imo, the Yanx would be giving them a break....

    and Harrison, shit, hope to hell he's not signed or extended beyond his 2020 season....

    this is enough to make anyone miss Headcase....!

    Depending of course who the 2 minor league pitchers are I'd be ok with that. Rather have fuller than cole if have choice
