Amazing how many teams regret the stupid big contracts they give out.

 

Does this take Yankees out of Correa sweepstakes?  Down to Astros and Cubs?

I don’t think so. It looks like they are tearing it down and building around Buxton.

Not tearing it down. They just traded their first rounder for Sonny Gray today. Retooling and free up space for a signing is my guess.

They still need so much pitching tho and there is so little left.

I know Volpe is coming, but Yankees fans are going to revolt if Kiner-Falefa is their Opening Day SS

Cubs signed Simmons. Correa is probably going back to the Astros.

Save a lot of money and get rid of the guy who gets five calf injuries a year.  

They're rebuilding .Out with the old big contracts get a smaller one back in Sanchez then dump his too. I mean if you can't live with a 1 yr. $7.5 M contract that's a rebuild.

Well getting better defensively to me doesn't mean putting Gavin Sheets into RF. Guy had -2 DRS in a very limited showcase. That's brutal.

From all accounts, Cubs didn’t get Simmons to start full time

So should the Sox spend big for a RF?

Yeah I think someone posted on here earlier that the Twins are just looking forward to 2023 or something along those lines. Either way they are shedding salary for something. Either a rebuild or a big signing but they still need more pitching.

You don’t trade for Gray then

I love Gavin Sheets when he's not playing RF and he's part of a DH/1B platoon

Unless they flip him too.

Why did they just trade their last 1st rounder for a SP with 2 years control then? Doesn’t make any sense….yet anyways. It’s definitely interesting.

It doesn’t make any sense but maybe they are going after Bryant since they got rid of Donaldson. Just a swap.

I bet Yankees use Torres now in a deal for Manaea and Olson

But OAK wants young prospects not players
