We can play in fantasyland where the Yankees sign Cody Bellinger and Shohei Ohtani and trade for Juan Soto. I do not believe they will acquire any of them.
We can play the time-machine game and take endless shots at the Yankees for passing on Bryce Harper, Freddie Freeman and Corey Seager. But none are walking through that Bronx door.If that proves correct, the Yankees will need two groups to make upgrades: the old and the new . I’m not particularly bullish on either group.
If you want to believe in Dominguez, Volpe and Wells — and maybe Oswaldo Cabrera, Everson Pereira, Oswald Peraza, and eventually Spencer Jones and Trey Sweeney — it would mean the Yankees are going to do a lot better than they have in the 2000s in developing players. In that entire grouping, the only players drafted by the Yankees were Judge, Solak, Gardner, Gamel and Volpe. So do you imagine Dominguez , Volpe and Wells all taking 400 plate appearances in the same season for the Yankees? That would include two drafted players in Wells and Volpe.
Want the 10 big ones the Yankees signed? Dermis Garcia, Nelson Gomez, Juan De Leon, Jonathan Amundaray, Antonio Arias, Hoy Park, Wilkerman Garcia, Diego Castillo, Miguel Flames and Bryan Emery. That group cost the Yankees $14.25 million in bonuses. Of those 10 signings, Castillo played one game in the majors this year; no one else played an inning.
MLB Trade Rumors has Bauers pegged for $1.7 million in his first year of arbitration, plus he has three years of control. That is the profile of a player that fits the Marlins. But do they like his potential upside? Bauers just turned 28 last week, yet six organizations already have brought him in, including heavily analytical groups in Tampa Bay, Cleveland, Seattle and The Bronx. There is clearly something in his metrics that teams like.
