good chance teams are just using the yankees to drive up their players' stock. kimbrel has no role with the yankees. and he would cost too much to rationalize it.


Yankees could end games after 4 innings with that pen. :lol:

They were scouting the Padres end of last week.

Yankees really want a Righty Bullpen Arm because they won't part with Judge or Severino for a Starter. Right now it's just Adam Warren with Betances. But Betances is your 8th inning guy, need someone else in the mix.



Betances-Miller is the best duo 8/9 duo in the league...why mess with a great thing?

especially with the way we've been playing there's no need to make a move like that. gimme a Prado/Headley-like move & i'll be happy..


They need another righty arm, and from what I read, they want to lessen the stress on Betances, and Kimbrel would be the 7th inning.

Something along the lines of Nelson & Stanton for Rivera.

Kimbrel-DB-Miller would be filthy...we have a lead after 6 & it's game over...:x :x

another righthander is definitely needed in the pen tho whether it be Benoit or Kimbrel.

Fixed, Wilson putting in work this year too

Shreve has been better.


But Wilson & Warren being your two worst bullpen pitchers is :wow: because they are really good.

Dotel was a sick setup reliever in Houston.

I was sad we had to give up Dotel and Cedeno for Mike Hampton and Derek Bell. Dotel was our Mejia. I liked the trade but wish we didn't give up these young promising players. Lucky for us that Cedeno didn't play well. Bell with his infamous eephus pitch. :pimp: :lol:

Deal will not happen at all but if it did he wouldn't close or set up over Betances or Miller so 7th it is for him.

a guy who has been arguably the best closer in baseball the last 3 years would be a 7th inning guy? the chances of him going there are slim but if he does he is the closer.

No he would not. Numbers for Miller and Betances are better this year, he would be 7th inning guy.

I can see Cubs instead getting Kimbrel and Tyson Ross while giving up Starlin Castro and some other dudes

Padres get their shortstop and Cubs promote Javier Baez for 2B while moving Addison to SS.
