Kmart128 Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Still waiting on starting pitchers. Not a big fan of this move. Seems like beating a deadhorse with our Bullpen. Prospsects could have been traded for a more pressing need Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbadbuff23835 Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Stealing him from the Stros is the best part of this move tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slateman Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 I mean, at this point, the Yanks should replace two of their starters with bullpen days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pollino14 Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Excellent news. There’s nobody out there who I trust really in the playoffs, let’s put our best pitchers out there which are our bullpen. I’m hoping Boone can manage it correctly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like beating a deadhorse with our Bullpen. Prospsects could have been traded for a more pressing need Yeah, I guess we're going to rely on the bullpen instead of our starters. If Britton can regain his past form, it's worth it. If not, it's not. But man, if Tommy Kahnle can return to last year's form, our BP could feature Chapman, Betances, Green, Warren, Robertson, Kahnle, Britton, and Holder.(and Cole has been lights out too since he came over from Wash) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leader Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 From the Post: The Yankees had tried to get Manny Machado earlier this month and were told by Baltimore to build a package around pitching, which the Yanks are deep at in the minors. They were then surprised when Baltimore dealt Machado to the Dodgers for a package built around a high-end outfield prospect. But they were now armed with who the Orioles liked in their system to better pursue Britton. Plus, the Yanks recognized that they wanted to trade from their wealth of advanced starting prospects because they face yet another 40-man roster crunch this coming offseason. Tate and Rogers, for example, were among several pitchers the Yanks either would have to put on their 40-man roster or risk losing in the December Rule 5 draft.

Leader Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Will synthesize what I've heard from several scouts about 3 prospects who would go from Yankees to Orioles if Britton deal finalized: Carroll big fastball up to 97 mph, misses bats, needs work on slider/control. Good competitor. Rogers a LH with feel and 4-pitch mix, projects to back-end starter, must be precise because not overpowering. Tate strong fastball/slider mix. Has grown this year, but still doesn't miss enough bats. Question if he is back-end starter or set-up man Joel Sherman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
