The Yankees lost this trade by a mile. I really liked Martin Prado and didn’t like the trade when it happened.

Also, this trade happened because of the acquisition of Headley for Solarte, the latter of which has been the better player while playing at the league minimum. So all in all, the Yankees downgraded their third base position twice and eventually ended up spending more money in the process.

That’s true, Solarte has more home runs, rbi’s and a better batting average.

That is true but Solarte is a terrible third baseman while Headley is still good over there. Headley is also a better baserunner and a little better at drawing walks. Solarte has been worth about 1.7 WAR this season while Headley has been worth 2.1 WAR. Most of the difference is defense, but Headley is still the better player.

Yeah seriously overpaid… Anyways the Yankees are getting younger..

Given how weak the free agent class is, I think Prado gets 3 yrs.
Bronx Bombers
I don’t see why he can’t get 4 years like Zobrist. Both are super utility guys about the same age when they hit free agency.

This. Plus Prado is will be 33 years older this FA while Zobrist was 36 in last year’s FA.
