Yankees Move In To Cut Ties With Rays Top Rated Star.

One more individual who wanted additional playing time rather than money.
For a pitiful $1.5 million, Gio Urshela selected the Detroit Tigers over the New York Yankees, and it was supposed that Brian Cashman was just… not that interested. While Urshela was assured more playing time in the Motor City, the Yankees seemed to be at the periphery of the situation rather than at the forefront when they quarrelled about $1.5 million.

Maybe I was mistaken, though. Though that scenario might have indicated the Yankees’ interest in Urshela in particular (and vice versa), it doesn’t seem to point to New York’s intention to acquire a versatile infielder.

The Yankees were a surprising competitor for Kiké Hernández’s services last week, and he revealed that the team had submitted a $4 million deal, only to have it rejected in favor of Los Angeles’ comforts (and Ohtanis).

Joel Sherman was able to learn that Amed Rosario was also offered $4 million by the Yankees, but he chose to accept a $1.5 million contract with Tampa Bay instead. Add Amed Rosario to the pile. For whatever reason, you can be sure he’ll post a.800 OPS there. That Devil (Rays) Magic was probably too good to ignore.

Yankees made a bigger bid for Amed Rosario, but they were outbid.
Naturally, Rosario marred the struggling left-hander’s line the other day by tattooing a Carlos Rodón pitch into left field. It is getting underway early.

Formerly the free-striding player in that dink-and-dunk lineup, the ex-Guardian didn’t have a particularly good 2023 season (.675 OPS in Cleveland,.709 OPS in Los Angeles), and he might not be the biggest offseason loss for the Yankees. It’s not that the Rays might hit a Yankee target that makes this tale more noteworthy.

It’s the reality that Oswald Peraza’s shoulder ailment is looming large in the team’s Opening Day roster plans, and that New York’s budget is strangely higher for a final bench place than most would’ve imagined. Additionally, a late signing like Donovan

It wouldn’t seem strange to Solano.
