puff tentacle Posted December 9, 2017 Report Share Posted December 9, 2017 (edited) First off , I am a sick , and suffering Met fan , but when I watched the playoffs with my Yankee fan friends I really started to enjoy and even root for the Baby Bombers. I liked the way they played , their enthusiasm , and I think I liked the fact that they weren't a team filled with high priced free agents . I liked that a bunch of them were home grown and they seem to carry themselves well, especially that kid Aaron Judge. But I just heard that they are in talks with the Marlins for a possible trade for Giancarlo Stanton and I am not thrilled with it. Again , I am not a true Yankee fan so I am interested in the Yankee fans perspective on this. Sounds like a no brainer in theory to want him and his huge numbers but maybe if he comes that changes the chemistry of the team in a negative way, maybe they can get a few lesser name players to complete the puzzle. I am a met fan and we are so dysfunctional that I would want him but we aren't close to winning jack. You guys are on the cusp of a run that be great for a few years. Curious what you Yankee fans think Edited December 9, 2017 by puff tentacle You know what they say about common sense right...it ain't so common Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Posted December 9, 2017 Report Share Posted December 9, 2017 Looks like it's done. Castro is the biggest piece going to MIA The fact that an opinion has been widely held is no evidence whatever that it is not utterly absurd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeyZac Posted December 9, 2017 Report Share Posted December 9, 2017 I liked our team the way it was. Not a fan of adding stars from other teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeyZac Posted December 9, 2017 Report Share Posted December 9, 2017 Well, since they went out and got one, might as well go get the other. Bring on Machado, and let's just be done with it already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fly By Nite Posted December 10, 2017 Report Share Posted December 10, 2017 (edited) He'll strike out a billion times but they'll sort of get their moneys worth if he hits 40 homers which I think he will provided he stays off the DL. Great star player comes with all the hype and lesser value. Perfect fit for the yanks. Edited December 10, 2017 by Fly By Nite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both Machado & Harper will be free agents next year The fact that an opinion has been widely held is no evidence whatever that it is not utterly absurd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Riddler Posted December 10, 2017 Report Share Posted December 10, 2017 Some idiot Red Sox fans saying on the radio the Sox lost out......Stanton has to waive his no trade clause and he refused to come to Boston....there's no losing out. Think about it. He's coming from Miami with a night club life......he will get the night life in New York....Boston has no night life beyond 2am.....so that's that..plus we are Wacist...lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Stanton wants to get laid they will be knocking on his hotel room door 24/7 If it has fins i want to catch it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
