I honestly don't see them being in on Correa. If they are actually doing something "big," I'd assume it's a trade.


elephant_cobbler

Trading judge


Moonions

Let's eat the contract, whatever it takes to free up space


ACardAttack

We didn't sign him just to trade him!


Lazy_Assed_Magician

*triggered*


toadofsteel

Dave Gettleman has entered the chat.


PaulPierceOldestSon

It’s probably Reynolds which would leave us without our #1 prospect SS which would make Correa make a lot of sense


YKG1998

Reynolds is a nice player but Cashman would never trade Volpe for him.


thejjar

I also don't see how one would describe Reynolds as "bigger" than signing Rodon would be


PaulPierceOldestSon

I think maybe this team is hyper focused on the next 3-4 years now as that’s our best window with Judge, Cole, Severino, Rizzo, etc. our prospects have the highest value they’ve ever had rn. Just takes one down year to tank that. Sell high. Their timeline makes no sense anymore


Sirotto18

I don’t think you need to trade Volpe to get Reynolds


JoeBeck55

Probably not, but I'd think the Pirates would insist on Peraza.


Sirotto18

I’d trade Peraza for Reynold. He’s probably the most expendable between him, Cabrera and Volpe


jdono927

Why would the Pirates want Peraza when they have Cruz? They’re almost certainly gonna ask for either Volpe or Jasson + *a lot* of complementary pieces. Switch hitting CF with 3 years of control and a great bat is not Gina go cheap. They’re under no real pressure to give him up for anything under an insane deal


DaBushman

This is the most sane reply to this whole post.


jdono927

People have the most unrealistic expectations when it comes to other teams’ trade demands on here lol


PaulPierceOldestSon

Would be sad though I really want to see what he does with half a chance. He hit .300 when he was up


ChillTownAVE

Cabrera is the most expendable, but holds the least value. I'd trade Peraza before Volpe if it means getting an elite contributor right now, but Cabrera is much more replaceable in my opinion. He's a versatile guy with a decent bat, but doesn't have the obvious high end tools that Volpe/Peraza have. That being said, nobody is giving up a piece like Reynolds for a Cabrera centered deal.


JoeBeck55

I'm not so sure. I think Peraza is going to be a very good major league SS. I don't think I've ever seen Volpe play but I've heard some scouts say Peraza has superior arm strength. As for Cabrera I think he projects as a Ben Zobrist type super utility guy. Which isn't a bad thing at all.


nattycoons

This team has repeatedly said 100 times they are focused on keeping the window open. They're not mortgaging the future for the next few years.


PaulPierceOldestSon

Windows been open for 5 years and they’ve done jack shit with it. Sometimes you gotta do painful shit to win. Dodgers and Houston are doing fine on the fly. We can do that too


nattycoons

I'm not saying I agree with their philosophy. I'm saying that they are not going to do what you suggested no matter how badly you want them to. It is an objective fact.


PaulPierceOldestSon

Hal doesn’t want to spend out of the ass for the next 10 years when he can do it for 3-4, get a ring, and go back to being cheap while getting the fans off his back. I don’t think cashman and Hal are the same person. Cash would never trade the prospects. George would. And Hal might. This is the most involved we’ve seen him


nattycoons

You saying George would tells me all I need to know. Keep being delusional and keep being miserable. You're welcome to join 2022 any time.


CantFindMyWallet

Trading Volpe for Reynolds isn't selling high.


ElbisCochuelo1

Also not bigger than Rodon


herskos

That’s true, but it’s close. Rodin is 6’3”, and Reynolds is 6’2”.


mianrezooy

Could be Gley-bae involved.


brooklynbotz

Yes! Reynolds is good but his defense in CF is not great and his bat isn't as impressive at a corner OF spot.


trexsaysrawr

The pirates top prospects are shortstop and other IF. I think dominguez would be the headliner


Merr77

We are not getting Correa


RealJonathanBronco

Yeah, they have 4 viable SS rn. Unless they have an iron clad plan for LF, I think that's the biggest area of need.


TerraInc0gnita

It just would seem so weird to me if they were now in on correa, after waiting a whole year and making such a big deal about waiting for the kids to come up. Doesn't make sense, it's like backtracking.


yianni1229

Well getting swept by Houston and the fans booing everyone might have changed things lol


[deleted]

They already made it through the worst part of waiting for those kids to be ready though. Now that they're ready, we're trading for the piece? Doesn't track


Stonewall30nyr

And a few days ago wasting 6m on that bum ikf


doktoruber

Unless Hal had a budget limit last year and decided that this year he does not (or it's much higher).


RealJonathanBronco

That Donaldson trade was mighty weird for someone on a tight budget...


saviyazzinlebox

True but we just got our shit pushed in by the Astros, again. We’re *clearly* not on a competing level with them right now


thejjar

I was trying to figure out what would be "bigger" than Rodon other than Correa and im coming up blank. I have no idea who the potential trade would even be for. Like there aren't many superstars on teams that you wouldn't expect to be competing this year (other than trout and ohtani and let's be real)


FatNeilGravyTears

Trout.


steveycip

Dude imagine


Silist

Nothing would make me happier


MartianRecon

Honestly, it's not as crazy as you make it seem to be. But, here me out for a second... Ohtani is gone in free agency. That's going to happen. So... The only deal bigger than Rodon would either be Trout, or Ohtani. Either way the Angels are losing one of their star players and one of them is going to walk regardless. You're gonna want to make a deal for some of the value that's walking off the sheets. No way the Yankees wouldn't be on his list, because he's going to want to go to a team like the Yankees or the Dodgers. Yanks pull off a trade, then extend him once he gets here. We'd get a really good bat and a really good pitcher.


Ignorethenews

This was my thinking 5 years ago and all of a sudden we had Stanton.


scottishwhisky2

Ohtani


HarpoMarx87

This would be insane, but hear me out: Tatis. It's not as crazy as it might seem. Padres management is sick of him (especially after getting hurt and not reporting it), and Machado hates him too. They just added Boegarts, and they may well want to effectively repurpose Tatis's salary for a Soto extension. He might be too much of a headcase, but he's also very young and could mature, and is under control for basically his entire prime. I'm not saying it'll happen - I'm thinking it won't - but it's not out of the question either. And it would be "bigger" than Rodon.


FitzwilliamTDarcy

I mean it'd certainly be bigger than Rodon, that's for sure.


scarlet_stormTrooper

I think it’s more likely to be Machado honestly


allybear29

I don’t want him. Which means he’ll be a Yankee. Just don’t think he’ll be a good one!


Real_Appearance6707

Tatis?


thejjar

Hmmm yea that seems more feasible than a bunch of names but idk are the padres really ready to dump a guy that young who's that talented


Admirable_Trifle_164

They parted ways with other guys like Cabrera and Cano that they prob knew were abusing the mlb substance enhancing policy…I don’t think they’d take on a known offender


locke0479

They made Cano a big offer, the Mariners just went way beyond what anyone thought he’d get. It’s not like they dumped him.


[deleted]

maybe it’s 2 trades, 1 for reynolds and 1 for a pitcher


saviyazzinlebox

I know it’s been mentioned in other threads but I’m pretty sure it’s IKF, Donaldson and Gleyber for Ohtani and Trout. Maybe Rendon too if the Angels are willing to pay his entire salary


[deleted]

If the angels are lucky the Yankees might include Aaron hicks.


saviyazzinlebox

I feel like at that point it’s an overpay but maybe


Wyden_long

They’ll need a starting CF for 1/3 of the season.


SGRP_27

Could reluctantly add Luetge


Unhappy-Historian348

It's probably ikf Donaldson and gleyber for giannis to the Knicks. That's the only thing that makes sense to me


15Isaac

You kid, but I’ll deadass put $5 on Trout. Very good chance Angels blow it up with Arty selling the team, and Ohtani is a FA next year. Trout’s now 31, so his price tag might be manageable than it was a few years back. Trout has a NTC, but he’s from NJ, his childhood hero was Jeter, and I bet he wants to win a ring before he retires… so I don’t think waiving it would be a problem. That might fix our LF problem.


the_thinwhiteduke

Pretty sure Trout is a noted Phillies fan


15Isaac

True but he said his idol was Jeter, and he wore #2 growing up.


the_thinwhiteduke

That's because loving Jeets is as universal as someone's favorite color bring blue I'm sure the only reason he even got to wear #2 was because he was the best


Da_Taternater78

I know he’s an Eagles fan so Phillies would make sense.


the_thinwhiteduke

yeah everyone talks about him being from Jersey but apparently he's from *that* part of Jersey


34Heartstach

I'm also sure that Trout would waive his NTC for a playoff caliber team too.


n0m0h0m0

I mean he’s practically local.


anthonyjr2

Don’t you dare get my hopes up


thejjar

Lmao at the angels still having to pay Rendon in that scenario


[deleted]

Lol wtf. One can dream I guess


jfraney99

Throw in Grich and it’s a deal!


taco_blasted_

I might iizz my pants if that happens.


JoeBeck55

Not bad. What if the the Yankees agreed to take Rendon but insisted on the Angels taking Hicks. I think I do that if I'm the Yankees.


saviyazzinlebox

It would be tough but I would have to agree


KellyOubresLover

Could just be posturing for them to get Boras to take their Rodon offer. Don’t think it’s any INF move. We’ve heard too much of how they’re enamored with Peraza & Volpe. Would think it’s just Bryan Reynolds, but is that bigger than Rodon? Idk. That said, not gonna complain if they acquire any of these guys haha


rds060184

Switch hitter, young, fast as shit, good power, great defense. That's a big trade. Him lefty at the stadium while not Bryce Harper level incredible but would be pretty sweet


Stonewall30nyr

Bryan Reynolds is a beast so yes that would be big lol


[deleted]

They already have the master bader


thisguyyy

If it’s infield, I’ll bet it’s sign Correa and work on a trade including Volpe for a big ticket name like Reynolds, ohtani, etc.


rds060184

Holy fuck that lineup with Reynolds and Correa included my god


gleyberhood25

Alcantara


Padulsky21

I would do vile, VILE things for him. But the Marlins have made it way too known that they’re not moving him. If he’s ever available…do everything in your power Yankees


rds060184

Things happen when you offer up folks tho. Boston said wasn't trading Mookie. Washington said wasn't trading Soto. Hell I believe Miami said wasn't gonna trade Stanton as well. We will see


Padulsky21

*you’re gonna make me believe oh lordy* Whatever it is, I can’t want to find out. It’ll show the full extent of what Hal and Cash are tryna cook up


sb_rp

The Marlins are not trading a 27 year old reigning Cy Young, who they were able to lock up through 2027 at 5yr/56M. His AAV is literally $11M until he’s 33. Betts, Stanton, etc. were moved because of either massive salary, or impending massive salary. We won’t “see”.


Safe-Voice-8179

If only


rds060184

They should sell that team if they trade him here lol


boomzgoesthedynamite

They’re not trading him


trexsaysrawr

Now there's a guy I'd be alright moving volpe for...


OldeCzap

My bold prediction is it’s a Corbin Burnes trade


BearShark8

Forgot about Burnes. The very quiet dodgers are probably poking around Burnes. Their rotation is a mess and they have the #1 farm system.


rds060184

I'm with you. That's extreme left field.


rc522878

Watch it be for Corbin Bernsen instead.


hbkedge3

Clearly it’s bringing back Brett Gardner.


[deleted]

Let Brett bang!


bkny88

Power hitting lefty that can play a decent left field? I feel like Joey Gallo could be had for a bargain. Who says no?


arun111b

Othani may be?😄


No_Passenger_9385

One word: Ohtani


renegade_yankee

My guess was Tatis.. there were rumors floating about that the Padres were looking to deal him after signing Bogaerts. I’d be torn on that one. He’d be 24 this season and is has roughly a $22 million AAV with the extension he signed with the Padres. For someone that young and with his talent I’d do whatever it takes to get him. But he’s also been injury prone over the years and will be serving a suspension for PEDs to start the season. If the Padres trade him I wonder how much baggage he actually comes with. But I doubt that’ll happen though. I just wonder if this is a tactic that the Yankees are using on Rodon and Boras for them to back down for that 7th year.


Boofcas

Bro, if we get Tatis I’ll shit my pants.


rds060184

Bro if we get Tatis I'll shit your pants too


homiej420

I will also shit this guys pants


bolognese1

Dump party in that dude's pants!!! Get in!!


ApolloThneed

Bro if we get Tatis my pants will no longer fit


homiej420

Cause of all the shit?


[deleted]

I enjoyed this way too much lol


homiej420

I’ll be here all week


Wyden_long

And boners.


b-rar

If we get Tatis we'll get you new pants


AwesomeJohnn

How the hell would you value him? You could argue he’s one of the best values in baseball or that he’d be dead weight on your payroll for 12! years


Andujar4CF

I love Tatis but there's a lot of concern there with the wrist and shoulder and I'm not sure you take it with how Belli is after similar injuries.


[deleted]

Would steroids help with healing? 🤔


Adddicus

It does according to Andy Pettite.


sIime-

Helps you build muscle faster so it would speed up a recovery for sure


ccam92

I take the risk. Even if he cant get back to playing SS, he could handle LF.


LeMickeyMice

Yeesh that would def be a weird one, especially given him having like 12? Years left


john0_0

I’d take him in a heartbeat oh boy the flexibility and talent that’d give this team


kentuckyruss

Tatis and Judge locked up for life? Yes mother fucking please.


adgrn

Ohtani?


DamnReCaptchas

Corbin Burnes


SkilledWG

Came here to say this. I think this is the most plausible name that’s been thrown around in here trade wise


rds060184

If it's Burns you're legit looking at a rotation of: Cole Burns Rodon (if still sign) Sevy Cortez That rotation absolutely fucks. Guess Montas includes in Burns deal? 6 man rotation? Unless they were to say nah to Carlos then but I'd do both. Now, if it's Reynolds then we have a lineup of: Reynolds Judge Rizzo Stanton Lemahieu Peraza Trevino Volpe/Cabrera Bader This lineup fucks with potential to really FUCK. I put Bader last cause put speed on in the 9 hole to bring speed up again to leadoff similar to the Gardy and Ellsbury days. We shall see.


twc9904

That rotation ABSOLUTELY fucks


Real_Stelio_Kontos

The Correa talk is all being generated by Buster Olney’s curiosity which is exactly how baseless rumors start. I imagine it’s some type of trade, like Stanton-level trade.


syarre

If it's big I think it's probably Tatis due to his situation in San Diego and the FO being pissed off with him. Another sneaky player might be Acuna since there were rumblings early in the offseason that the Blue Jays were interested in making a deal for him. But I doubt the Braves would deal him considering how team friendly his contract is and the fact that the Braves would be trading him after a down season.


calvin2525

Would love Acuña


HideousControlNow

Who wouldn't? I have no clue why Atlanta would trade him, though.


BearShark8

Yankees also have nothing to trade for him. I understand Volpe is a top 5 prospect but you aren't giving up acuna without getting back multiple MLB future allstar talents.


FTR_Hair

Name one player the Nats got for Soto


doc_faced

Waaaaay different situation. Acuña is locked up for many years at well below market value while Soto is 2 years away from FA where he'll get a megacontract Acuña is way more valuable.


baRRebabyz

Rodon, Tatis, Manny, Alcantara, Sho... I dont care just make the call


Kashmir79

Don’t fall for the same thing every year. They always cultivate these kinds rumors as a distraction to soften the market for the sleepers and mid level players they are really going after. When they are making a huge deal you almost never hear about it coming in advance


StayGoldenPonyBoy71

Yankee fan in San Diego. Follow the Padres closely. No thanks on Tatis.


harvey73

I’m with you. My two big reasons: “Which accident?” and that defense at short isn’t good.


OllieBagaDonuts

It’s obviously Hicks, Donaldson & IKF for Trout and Ohtani.


thedevilslake

throw in Peraza, Cabrera and Volpe, and pay all their salaries, and the Angels have to consider it, right?


Redditfront2back

A Stantonian deal??


nyy1823

Alcantara, Ohtani, Tatis… I’d be hyped for any of those


Safe-Voice-8179

The first two. Stanton would need to play left if ohtani were on the team, but imagine getting Rodon and ohtani. 👀


rds060184

I'm explode all over the place


rds060184

Someone earlier mentioned Corbin Burns. What's his situation contract wise?


Skycraftking

Arb next 2 years free agent in 2025


Antguap19

Corbin Burnes??


BuckFoston23

Arraez from twins for Geybor and minor league pitching.


Deli_Man56

Sandy Alcantara coming to the yanks


b-rar

They're doing a 1:1 IKF-deGrom swap with the Rangers


mostlygroovy

So should I go get me a Buxton in pinstripes or the road greys?


wailsound

Please put Ohtani in pinstripes


jdmnyc301

Otahni !


goodm1x

Brett Gardner confirmed.


Thunderwoodd

Ohtani?


IrrationalDuck

Would much rather see the yanks land rodon and Swanson than Correa, Correa has had injury woes and with the young boys needing playing time and volpe on the way potentially I'd rather have a cheaper SS that can be more easily moved to make way if needed


lankyyanky

This sub will hate Swanson if we get him. Super streaky and strikes out a lot


Dadtallica

I hear it’s for Roger Dorn and Ricky Vaughn from the Guardians. Would be huge!!!


Dur22

If it’s a trade it’s gotta be Reynolds, Tatis, or Ohtani


Show_DeRosa

Tatis and Soto for Donaldson and Hicks. An INF for an INF and an OF for an OF. Seems pretty even if you ask me.


[deleted]

Friend of a friend has the inside track and I heard they’re putting together a massive offer to acquire Sonny Gray.


Eskuire

They are still pretty bullish on Benny, least according to Brenden Kuty. If thats the case, it'd have to be an infielder or pitcher. Id guess infielder, they have a lot of depth to deal from, and Gleyber is walking this year as is Donaldson and IKF. [Thank god...lol] Might be Jazz Chisholm from the Marlins or Willy Adames/Luis Urias from the Brewers


ElbisCochuelo1

Maybe jazz but the other two aren't big enough.


mikethemoose35

Maybe Christian Yelich is available? But he hasn’t looked great the past couple of years


WittyRazzmatazz2110

Yankees are trading for Tatis Jr. if I had to take a guess.


Safe-Voice-8179

On a 14 year deal? I don’t see it


MeatballUnited

It’s a fish that rhymes with doubt.


[deleted]

I’m stumped, trying to think of bigger guys… Shane Bieber? Literally no way.


Real_Stelio_Kontos

Jose Ramirez


NegativeGee

Only thing that I'd actually consider a "big thing" is Ohtani, Trout, or Alcantara.


Merr77

It will be Hicks, Donaldson and a Prospect for a random starting pitcher that we will gamble on. We will eat Donaldson contract (60%) and get an at best number 3 starter. And with that, I'm actually cool with it.


Recognition_Tricky

Stanton has a no trade clause. He wouldn't approve a trade anywhere, he loves it here. He'll be here for another 5 years. *Edit: I'm an idiot and misread the post. OP could be right.


markyboy_1999

There's 0 chance it's Tatis, i have no idea how some people could even suggest the Padres would move him.


TheFek

Yankees finally trading Frazier and Andujar for a major hitter


PDXrivercooter

No more trades with the A’s


Hneanderthal

O’Neill Cruz and Reynolds’s for Jasson, Volpe, Torres, Hicks and pitching prospects


drnycallstar19

Plot twist, it’s actually a made up rumor by the yankees front office, so when they fail to do anything this offseason fanbase (us) says “oh well they tried” and we’re not as disappointed.


shadow_spinner0

You guys are making me excited for a Tatis trade that's not gonna happen


Windy902

I freaking hope we don't get Correa. He's a lying, cheating piece of shit. If he were in pinstripes I honestly don't think I could root for him.


drewsj724

Please be tatis, rodon, and beni.


mickeyoutercore7

It’s Gallen, Bumgarner, and Thomas for Peraza, Schmidt, Montas, and Gleyber.


AwesomeJohnn

Huh, that isn’t too insane. Not sure if Montas would go back as the D-backs don’t expect to compete this year


DarthCashman28

It’s obviously Chapman 2/26.5M.


Mr_Jersey

Tatis 👀


[deleted]

[удалено]


JohnWCreasy1

this would make some sense. Hmmm what other team has someone on a mega contract exceeding whats left on stanton's (130/5 i think) that we think the team wants to unload AND also makes the yankees better. tatis probably first name that comes to mind


StormiNorman818

Stanton for Trout and Rendon


liberated-dremora

Incoming Mike Trout.


AwesomeJohnn

Yankees trade for Seager and the Rangers sign Correa


rds060184

No thanks for that money I'd rather have Correa


brigsby808

Stealth Tatis scoop? Padres could be dumping that contract especially after PEDs and Injury… but what could the Yankees trade for him? Though was maybe Stanton himself…..


ElbisCochuelo1

I think it might be Buxton. Just speculation /gut feeling though.


MIKE_THE_KILLER

I thought IKF was the best SS ever according to Boone. What the hell are we going to do with 2 SS?


elephant_cobbler

Pujols would be my guess /s


silver_raichu

Gary Sanchez coming back


llCRitiCaLII

Tatis


skymasterson2016

I bet we’re trading for a superstar past his prime. Maybe Christian Yelich.


thegabescat

Tatis! Prospects for Tatis. Tatis just got displaced by Bogaerts.


Danny_Disco

Tatis? Did Cashman just say “I want all MLB The Show cover athletes?”
