Gerrit Cole


Stoney

Recommended Posts

I love the signing.  I think we need to add one more arm, and we're set to go.  C.C. and hopefully we won't have to pay Jacoby Ellsbury for his final year.  I doubt that happens, because the MLBPU is so strong, and will take it to arbitration or however that will be settled.  If Stanton is healthy next year, I think the Yankees will be favored to win the pennant and the WS.

That's a huge possibility.  It seems every time the Yankees sign a big name FA they flop.  That goes back to the 80's.  They hit it big with Catfish Hunter and Reggie Jackson, but not so much after that.

That is a big chance when you give such a long term contract especially a pitcher but Cole seemed to be getting better and better and probably should have won the Cy Young award over Verlander
