I wonder how much closer they are to the luxury tax threshold nowby Hitman23 - TheYankeesBoard.com
The Yankees have reportedly come to terms on deals with two arbitration-eligible players -- reliever Tommy Kahnle and outfielder Aaron Hicks. MLB Network insider Jon Heyman reported Kahnle and the Yankees agreed on a one-year, $1.3125 million deal, while Hicks settled on a $2.825 million contract for 2018, per ESPN. They're the first of the Yankees' eight arbitration-eligible players to agreeby Hitman23 - TheYankeesBoard.com

I'm glad I have upper deck seats...by Hitman23 - TheYankeesBoard.com
Not much news to report. Just mentioning that they think the Yankees will make some moves but are playing the patient game, and waiting to see if players panic and settle for less. They spoke about HOF candidates and briefly mentioned Estevan Floral (I swear his swing makes him look like a skinny Big Papi !!). They also said the Astros are in talks with the Pirates over Gerrit Cole. Nexby Hitman23 - TheYankeesBoard.com
They'll be no issues for the YES Network Hot Stove crew for tonight's broadcast. It's on!!by Hitman23 - TheYankeesBoard.com
If Frazier doesn't get a three year deal, it could happen. Slim chance, but possible.by Hitman23 - TheYankeesBoard.com
Not a big signing, but I guess it's just in case they don't sign The Toddfather back, and Gleyber isn't ready yet.by Hitman23 - TheYankeesBoard.com

Can't wait to see this kid show his stuff at the MLB level.by Hitman23 - TheYankeesBoard.com
I'm not surprised. Next Hot Stove episode will be on Monday...... Weather permitting.by Hitman23 - TheYankeesBoard.com
I wonder if Lorenz, Curry & Flats (and a studio crew) will be able to make it to the YES studios in Connecticut today, in the midst of this brutal Cyclone Bomb snowstorm? We may have to wait until Monday for the next Hot Stove show.by Hitman23 - TheYankeesBoard.com
87 days until Opening Day... With this deep freeze we're all in right now plus with snow coming in two days, I cannot wait for March 29th to get here!by Hitman23 - TheYankeesBoard.com
Happy New Year everybody!! Yanks in 2018!!!by Hitman23 - TheYankeesBoard.com
I'm sorry to see the Holidays coming to an end. (The first week in January is always depressing for me), but at least Hot Stove and the Michael Kay show will be back. I wish I could say the same about Francesa, but he's no longer around. His retirement will really hit hard this week as this is usually when he came back on the air.by Hitman23 - TheYankeesBoard.com
With the Gerrit Cole trade talks all but dead (for now), the Yankees are possibly shifting gears to Yu Darvish "if the price is right". I can't see Darvish signing for under 20 million a year, but who knows?by Hitman23 - TheYankeesBoard.com
These days it's not just about adding a quality starting pitcher, but one you can control in the Bud Selig era of the LUXURY TAX.by Hitman23 - TheYankeesBoard.com
I truly believe Judge's slump was caused by his shoulder injury that needed surgery to clean out after the season was over. With him being 100% by spring training, plus the addition of the NL MVP into the line up. I see no downside to Aaron Judge in 2018.by Hitman23 - TheYankeesBoard.com
Clint's playing time will be decreased now, thanks the addition of Giancarlo Stanton.by Hitman23 - TheYankeesBoard.com
You can never have enough starting pitching. Who knows how CC's knee and Tanaka's elbow will hold up in 2018?by Hitman23 - TheYankeesBoard.com
Estevan Florial is why I won't be crushed if they trade Clint Frazier for Gerrit Cole. Plus, Florial is a left handed bat.by Hitman23 - TheYankeesBoard.com
Jerry CrasnickVerified account @jcrasnick Follow Follow @jcrasnick More The #Pirates have been engaged in talks with multiple clubs on Gerrit Cole since the winter meetings. This isn't a case of the #Yankees or bust. A trade doesn't appear imminent at this point. But things could pick up again between Christmas and New Years.by Hitman23 - TheYankeesBoard.com
I heard Jody McDonald say on WFAN this morning that the latest snag in the talks now are the Pirates wanting Clint Frazier & Justius Sheffield, because Sheffield is left handed, and Brian Cashman is standing firm believing Frazier & Adams are enough. We'll see who blinks first...by Hitman23 - TheYankeesBoard.com
The article source states that if all three (Frazier, Andujar & Adams) are dealt, the Yankees would also get utility infielder, Josh Harrison in return. If Harrison is not included in the trade, the Pirates would only get two of the three prospects.by Hitman23 - TheYankeesBoard.com
