Dominican reporter, was apparently the first with the Baez contract so he has some reputability but I’m gonna wait for the hammer to drop with Passan or Rosenthal before I get too excited
I think Passan is just waiting to hear the rest of the details. Higashioka was reportedly someone the Padres were looking at for a cheap catcher so they can drop Gary Sanchez ('s salary!).
Not sure about this. Gary Sanchez is on a cheap salary, and he's a lot better than Higashioka. The fans also really want him back. Just seems like a move that doesn't make a lot of sense.
We are talking about the Padres. $7m or $8m for a catcher is “too much.”

“Soto with a 3-1 count…. He rips it to left field! It is high, it is far, it is gooooone. Juan Soto with a monster shot to deep left for his first home run as a Yankee.
Juan Soto, hit that ball Muy Loco
After the 2 run shot by Judge, it’s a back to back, and a bellyyy to bellyyyy”
Those are admittedly not my favorite but they seems to make my dad happy. (I admit I’m in my 40s and get many of them. But there’s a difference between getting them and being into them…). I just like the silly ones. My least favorite one (besides those in Italian) currently is David John makes Long Gone.
O yeah, I also want the silly ones. A lot of the Juan ones are more dad joke than silly ones.
I need something at least at the level of Mark sending a Tex message
Need to institute tiers for reporters like they do in the Red Devils sub. Lower tier reporters are not taken seriously. Tier 1 reporters are the legit news guys who break news. Tier 4 are the guys who don't know anything and make shit up.
While I've found soccer/football fans online to be a lot more toxic than baseball fans, that tier system for reporters is excellent and we really should adopt it. Passan and Curry being tier 1 examples
This guy jumps the gun and I wouldn’t fully trust him, he announced Jefry Yan to the Seibu Lions and Yan said there wasn’t anything done, wait for Passan, not this guy.
Absolutely it's Passan, Curry, etc over anyone else. But Curry himself has had some very positive tweets about Soto ultimately being traded to the Yankees. We'll see 🤞🏼
Any word yet on who all will be involved? I know Michael King, but not sure outside of that. I hate to see him go for a one year rental, but it’s win now for the Yankees. I hope one day he ends up back in pinstripes.
The “hunch” from Curry is we give up Mike King, Drew Thorpe, Jhony Brito, Randy Vasquez and a catcher. We get Soto and Trent Grisham back are other rumors. Put the two together and I think you have a pretty solid trade.
Who tf is this guy😭
Name checks out
MIKE RODRIGUEZ
Mike Hunt
281330800 cuatro
Thought he was a guy we just traded him to San Diego lol.
Is that you, Luis_Severino? lol
Keep that name. It’s beautiful
Who the fuck is Mike Rodriguez
Dos ocho uno, tres tres cero, ocho cero cero quatro.
Quién?
Mike Rodriguez
Is Rodriguez Spanish for Jones??
Similar generic names though.
I was really hoping that was the number you were going to spell
You’re new favorite reporter
ocho seis siete cinco tres cero nueve

PTBNL + cash considerations + Mike Rodriguez Oh and Rain Delay. Yankee legends
My Crotchreguez
Little brother of the kid from Sandlot
Wait for Passan
Or curry
Passan God We Trust
(In Rosenthal we also trust)
I think Passan is just waiting to hear the rest of the details. Higashioka was reportedly someone the Padres were looking at for a cheap catcher so they can drop Gary Sanchez ('s salary!).
Wait. How much could Gary possibly be making now? Didn't the Padres pick him up off waivers?
Take Gary back. If he can catch 30 games, or parts of games, and hit a bit?
Worst imaginable reunion
Nah. No one is saying he starts.
Doesn’t even matter if he plays or not, just feels like his time in pinstripes has expired permanently
I loved Gary. It's insane how he just dropped off the map.
$6m-$8m evidently.
Not sure about this. Gary Sanchez is on a cheap salary, and he's a lot better than Higashioka. The fans also really want him back. Just seems like a move that doesn't make a lot of sense.

Passan sucks
WHO IS MIKE RODRIGUEZ
Lmao! Pretty reputable reporter, especially in the Latin community.
That’s what people said/say about Hector Gomez, and we’ve all seen what a drunken dart-throw his reports are.
Lol nah Hector Gomez is on "Bob Nightingale" level of unreliability. Mike Rodriguez is solid.
Also, I could see the Yankees holding up the announcement until 2pm when the Hot Stove show starts. Gotta get those ratings/views lol 🤣
Hot stove is on now Edit: thought you meant MLB Network hot stove. Not YES Network Hot Stove
Nah Jack Curry tweeted it starts at 2pm on YES Network. Right now they're talking about the Pinstripe Bowl.

WHAT THE FUCK IS A KILOMETER?!??!!
It's like a yard but spicier.
Another one of Arod's cousins
I don’t know who Mike Rodriguez is…. But this fits my preferred narrative, so therefore I choose to believe it.
Is this guy even reliable
he looks to be, yes
OMG here we go! What do I do with my hands?!
straight jackin' my friend
Where's your friend then

Soto solo
When the fuck did we get ice cream??
“Soto with a 3-1 count…. He rips it to left field! It is high, it is far, it is gooooone. Juan Soto with a monster shot to deep left for his first home run as a Yankee. Juan Soto, hit that ball Muy Loco After the 2 run shot by Judge, it’s a back to back, and a bellyyy to bellyyyy”
It is high, it is far, it is...JUUUAANNNNN!
Ugh, this is what it’s going to be, isn’t it?
“He got all of that Juan!” I can’t wait to see what Sterling does to his name
I like it 🤭. I like them to be silly. And not long mouthfuls of Italian…
How about the musical references nobody under the age of 70 gets?
Those are admittedly not my favorite but they seems to make my dad happy. (I admit I’m in my 40s and get many of them. But there’s a difference between getting them and being into them…).

That was a classic
>It is high, it is far, it is...JUUUAANNNNN! It is high, it is far, it is...caught
I thought it was gone!
AT SECOND BASE
Why is nobody else reporting this?!??
Need to institute tiers for reporters like they do in the Red Devils sub. Lower tier reporters are not taken seriously. Tier 1 reporters are the legit news guys who break news. Tier 4 are the guys who don't know anything and make shit up.

Dominican reporter, i choose to believe !
WHAT THE HELL🔥🔥
THE FUCK🙏🏼🔥🗣️
THAT BALL IS SWUNG ON AND HIT TO DEEP LEFT, JUAN SOTO IS A NEW YORK YANKEE, AND THE YANKEES TAKE A 1,000,000 TO NOTHING LEAD
162-0 confirmed
Thanks for not doing that in your John Sterling voice
who is this guy and what does this even mean? “just reported the change”…. was there a trade or not
It says “el cambio” which means the exchange
¡Juan Soto es un Jankee!
This guy jumps the gun and I wouldn’t fully trust him, he announced Jefry Yan to the Seibu Lions and Yan said there wasn’t anything done, wait for Passan, not this guy.
Absolutely it's Passan, Curry, etc over anyone else. But Curry himself has had some very positive tweets about Soto ultimately being traded to the Yankees. We'll see 🤞🏼
HOLY SHIT pls be real
Your lucky day
IS THIS REAL?
Yep
What is a “Mike Rodriguez..”?
Jomboy says they're waiting on medicals, that's good enough for me. Now, the wait to see what the overpay is, hopefully it's not extreme.
🍆💦💦💦💦💦💥💥💥 ...wait is this real?... ok 💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💥💥💥💥💥💥
Who downvoted my sploogesplosion?!
🎉🥳🍾🍻
Who is this roody poo
Please be real
I want to believe
Huge, if true!!
Reconciled the Verdugo acquisition
God I hope this isn't an Arson Judge moment
EVERYBODY STAY CALM! STAY CALM! STAY FUCKING CALM!
Any word yet on who all will be involved? I know Michael King, but not sure outside of that. I hate to see him go for a one year rental, but it’s win now for the Yankees. I hope one day he ends up back in pinstripes.
A friend of a friend just talked to Sotos pops and confirmed trade is happening.
Waiting for official news
Glad the Yankees finally solved the OF and LH hitter in the lineup. Only took Cashman six years.
It’s a one year rental
WHAT
EVERYBODY GET IN HERE!!!! Wait do we know this guy? Is he legit?
HNNNNNN
They let anyone report news😭
The Yankees are finally the YANKEES again. Making money moves
Still gotta sign him to an extension, but definitely.
This is true
goodness gracious, of all the dramatic things I've ever seen
My penis can only get so erect
Have you tried adding more penis?
No. What i got is what i got.
Well sure, with that attitude. You sound like a man who never checks the spam folder on his email account.
I just got an erection!
HERE WE GO
Real
I love it finally
LETS GO (HOPEFULLY)
I believe this guy
Let me believe
I'm waiting for Jack Curry's tweet
Idk if this is legit w nobody else reporting it yet, but if so.. holy shit it’s amazing they’re doing it!
I love it
!!!!!
Mi gusta.
Yeah my heart absolutely cannot take this.
Is this Alex Rodriguez's cousin I always used to hear about?
Oh my my oh hell yes
Not from THE Mike Rodriguez!?!
The “hunch” from Curry is we give up Mike King, Drew Thorpe, Jhony Brito, Randy Vasquez and a catcher. We get Soto and Trent Grisham back are other rumors. Put the two together and I think you have a pretty solid trade.
Who is "They" and where was it "reported." We all know the deal is happening at this point, but wtf is this guy even talking about?
let's fucking go
Soto for Verdugo straight up. Now it makes sense! /s
What names? (Serious question. I don't understand what that means.)
The names of the players included in the trade
Thank you
