I don’t buy spring training stats at all. Mitchell isn’t as big a loss as most think. Miller on the other hand…..well duh. Thankfully it was his non-pitching hand. Maybe he can pull a Jim Abbott.

I agree, it sucks to have one less option but I’ve never been a Mitchell guy. I think Cessa can probably step in and do the same job anyway. If Miller can really pitch through it and pitch effectively, that’s a game changer, but if he and Mitchell and Chapman are out, it’s gonna be dicey in close games in April and maybe even the first half of May.
The big three in tact is really the only thing the Yankees can’t duplicate with minor league farm hands throughout the year.

True. Though if there is one thing Cashman has been good at over the years, it’s been putting a bullpen together. 3rd in WAR over the past 4 years. 1st in WAR if we go 5 years or more, though that’s of course in large part to Rivera, though even since he’s retired, they are 2nd in WAR right behind the Orioles.

Damn them Yankee bullpen arms are dropping like flies. Vizcaino is lookin better by the minute put a package we could put together to get Sanchez.

The Yankees aren’t trading one of the top catching prospects in baseball for a reliever.
Bobby Sweet
Based on what I’ve seen from Yankee fans, I’m expecting a lot of Vizcaino + Dansby for Sanchez+ deals.

Pretty sure steelerbravenation came up with the trade idea in another thread.
But hey, proposals by fans show why they are only GM’s in video games.
steelerbravenation
No the trade proposal I made in the other threadjade Jace and Teahran involved as well with Sanchez and some other proponents involved but unnamed and everybody jumped on me saying that I was saying 3 for Sanchez which I never did. But I don’t see why some combination of Teahran, Vizcaino & Jace couldn’t get Sanchez plus other parts
christian18cutshaw
Teheran, Vizcaino, and Peterson would bring a lot more than just “Sanches and pieces”. Have you seen the command for SP right now? Have you seen the command for closers right now? The yanks wouldn’t do this because of the future judge has with the time and the role they expect him to play but the only way The Johns move Teheran and Vizcaino is if they get a name like judge along with Sanches. Look what Miller brought back. And IMO Teheran has more upside than Miller. Just my opinion though. This comment may cause a lot of controversy but all of its the truth.
steelerbravenation
Ok well do you agree that Sanchez would be a great fit ? And if so what would u suggest would get it done ? Would like to hear some positive dialogue to go back and forth with

Come on Bobby Sweet and steelerbravenation, your basis for a trade is nonsense.
There is no way the Yankees would trade Sanchez even under the circumstances that one of these two mooks you area talking about is the reincarnation of Cy Young!
Stop with this ridiculous knee jerk reactions to someone that they will be able to replace with any one of 4-5 arms at Triple A.

Tough breaks for the Yanks…… But… Damnit… They are the Yanks…. they always somehow survive everything…. Last year the starting staff spend more time exchanging pleasantries with the medical staff than they did between the white lines and they still made the playoffs… So… glad I am not a Yankee fan to have to worry about all of this stuff, but they always seem to survive…..

Well, the Yanks’ bullpen problems continue to take a hit. They have some younger guys who can step up…possibly.

Barbato has already been tapped for the OD bullpen earlier today.
Backatitagain
Jason Grilli and (choice of Kolby Allard or Tookie Tousaint) for Gary Sanchez and Domingo Acevedo.
steelerbravenation
I wouldn’t have a problem with that deal at all
dwhitt3
No way. Sanchez for Vizcaino, Newcomb, and Cunniff
steelerbravenation
What about Jenkins, Grilli & Jace for Sanchez and Heathcott ?
bronxbombers
Lmao no I’ll pass
Jace is a backup utility, grill is washed up and 2 years removed from a horrendous season and Jenkins is decent you can’t give quantity for quality slade and Sanchez are prolly not gonna see major league time this year too
steelerbravenation
Ok another guy that shoots it down with no counter proposal for a near mlb ready guy who is obviously blocked at the mlb level.
mriescher
Sanchez isn’t that blocked McCann will be on first before the end of the season. Wouldn’t be surprised if McCann is in his final season in the Bronx.
