Oriole’s are on drugs. No way should the Yankees pay any of the money left for Gardner. He makes very little.

Absolutely, unless it increases the value of the player(s) coming back.

You gotta be kidding me! He was a bust the moment he signed that extension.

12.5 mil for a 2.5 war player is technically a bargain. Id say hes earnjng his salary

What would be coming back from Baltimore ?
Eat no salary ?
Eat 50% of salary ?
dbacksrs
His defense is good, no doubt. He no long hits and does not steal bases as much anymore. $12.5 million a season in that respect and he’s a bust.

Every off season is the same every other rumor is about the Os and they are connected to every free agent and then nothing. It’s all a tease.

Gardner is worth what he is owed, maybe a little less. Want something for him? Going have to kick in cash.

Yanks should eat a bunch of Ellsbury’s salary and dump him. Teams might be willing to take him for @$13 million a year. Gardner is a much better player at this point.

See thats the thing. If they Yankees eat that much money on his deal, they will most likely want a decent prospect/depth piece coming back. Given how much term is still left on Ellsbury deal (I think its 4 or 5 years left), $13 million is still a lot for a guy who is already declining and his skillset will only continue to decline.

as long as they get Bach in the deal.

While I understand that the O’s are a low budget team I really don’t see a trade happening where the Yankees eat any salary. Realistically who would the O’s send north?
stymeedone
Why are the O’s still wasting time with Trumbo. Move along. This is not a player you want to invest in for 4 years.

Really curious who the Yanks would want in a deal for Gardner. Definitely not worth one of our top relievers

Gardner is well worth his 2yr/$25M contract. Cashman is far too wise to pay any of that in a trade unless the return player makes the difference. This makes no sense.
