holt_bruce81 Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 So are they out on Gray? A's asking for to much? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JammerHammer21 Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Assuming they do get Garcia and Gray, maybe they'll try and do some type of 6 man rotation because Montgomery is going to hit an innings limit most likely and Tanaka sometimes does better with extra rest? Also, Littell isn't a special prospect, but he feels like an overpay for a meh rental guy like Jaime. But the Yankees need at least one starter and I guess this move kind of takes some leverage from the A's if they won't relent, maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewAge Posted July 30, 2017 Author Share Posted July 30, 2017 If the Twins get Littell here, this is bordering on riskless arbitrage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kmart128 Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Yankees are close to aquiring Jamie Garcia...the report also mentioned this doesnt effect the Gray trade. But no idea what we would do with Garcia if we made both trades. As our rotation would be set with 1. Severino 2. Gray 3. Tanaka 4. Sabathia 5. Montgomery Does Garcia go to Triple A as insurance? Maybe bring him in at the end of the season to rest our guys if we clinch a playoff spot. Cant imagine anyone being forced to bullpen when wr have Warren and Green who are two excellent long relievers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes me think Gray is a long shot and either way I'm not sure this trade makes sense because if we don't get Gray we still have Adams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbadbuff23835 Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Could move Montgomery to the pen because of an innings limitation, We will see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adams still hasn't been called up and he's on even more of an innings limit than Montgomery. Considering that they've been opting to run Caleb Smith and Luis Cessa out there, seems that the Yankees don't think he's ready to start in the majors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On Sunday, the Yankees kept the momentum rolling in a different way acquiring left-handed pitcher Jaime Garcia from the Minnesota Twins for pitching prospects Zack Littell and Dietrich Enns.

CWood21 Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 So...did the Yankees give up more or less than what the Twins gave up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holt_bruce81 Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Jaime is going to get eaten alive by the NY media. This probably isn't going to go well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Twins paid ~$4 million for one start of Jaime Garcia and an upgrade in prospects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Twins got him in the hopes of competing in the central then they bombed so they can trade him. Arbitrage is doing this with intent. And it wasn't riskless even if that was the intent as there is no guarantee they would have gotten anything for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
