Why would the Yankees be looking for a second basemen when they have Future Hall of Famer Refsnyder? Unless they are going to use him to trade for an Ace?

I could see the yankees targetting zobrist for sure.

It would be foolish to go 3-4 years for Zobrist at big money so Cashman probably will. Just kidding. No way they spend big this off season, Hal is not George. With George, the bottom line was winning. With Hal, the bottom line is money, and the Yankees are raking it in with the moderately competitive team they have now. They are the Atlanta Braves of the new millennium, just making the playoffs is good enough. Just keep that money rolling in, baby.

If Bucholz can get 13m per season, the Iwakuma should be able to also, even over a couple of seasons with a 3rd year team option and being a couple years older. I’d rather have Iwakuma even.. like any day of the week.

Murphy would be a great Yankee

I see zero chance of the Yankees paying for Murphy, especially if the Mets offer him a QO. Even without a QO he does not fit the team. They stuck with Drew for so long because they wanted a more sure-handed defensive player than Refsnyder, so no way they add the Butcher of Queens to their roster at the cost of a draft pick and what will probably be at least a $50 million commitment. If they’re going to surrender a draft pick they’ll probably look at Kendrick, who is a solid fielder and more importantly brings a righty bat. Zobrist next. They love switch hitters and he can play second while giving roster flexibility. Overall, though, I don’t think they sign any of them.

I believe the Yankees trade away Gardner to get another bullpen arm, then try to sign Upton or one of the FA outfielders
