Yankees don’t need Nootbaar. They are looking for lh reliever and a rh hitting catcher. Maybe Romero, Pages and comp b pick for Dominguez?

I loved Amick at Tennessee.


Did you make all of these up??

[Hoosier59]

I don’t want any part of Dominguez. I could be wrong, and most likely am, but there’s just something about him I don’t think he will ever pan out. At least no better than Noot. I’m not really for moving Burleson either, just yet. I’d like see if he continues his improvement again, as he’s done so far each season.
Other than that, I’d be ok with any of the rest. I say get anything they can for Jesus Baez, I’ve never been high on him. I happen to like Pete Hansen, but not sure the Cardinals are, or at least as much as some of their other pitchers. Might as well thin out the roster congestion and try to get a player of more need.

can't help but notice a lot of Nootbaar and Pallante in there.

Not an accident.

[cardstatman]

JoJo Romero (6.3) to the Orioles for Round A Comp Balance Pick (5.0)

JoJo Romero (6.3) to the Yankees for RHP Ben Hess (5.5)

Lars Nootbaar (12.6) to the Yankees for RHP Elmer Rodríguez (14.7) and LHP Tim Hill (-2.3) (12.4)

Lars Nootbaar (12.6) and JoJo Romero (6.3) (18.9) to the Yankees for IF Dax Kilby (20.9) and LHP Tim Hill (-2.3) (18.6)

Lars Nootbaar (12.6) and JoJo Romero (6.3) and Pete Hansen (2.3) (21.2) to the Yankees for OF Jasson Dominguez (22.6) and LHP Tim Hill (-2.3) (20.3)

Yankees don’t need Nootbaar. They are looking for lh reliever and a rh hitting catcher. Maybe Romero, Pages and comp b pick for Dominguez?

Believe it or not, I completely forgot about Bellinger.

I've wanted Mayo at 3B for a while now.

Lawler would be a nice pickup too.

Tiedemann, yes please!

I loved Amick at Tennessee.


Did you make all of these up??

Yes. Using actual intelligence.

Lol. As opposed to fake intelligence?!?
I appreciate the effort.

[Talkin' Baseball]

Are there are 2-3 here that could realistically get done and serve the needs of both teams?

[ScotchMIrish]

You know you are a diehard fan when on the dullest day of the offseason, talkin' baseball is better than watching the Super Bowl!

Much better.
