There’s the issue. They were offered a nearly free LH power hitter who other than HRs sucks entirely and they took it. The Yanks had depth, the problem was, they had depth with the rocket ball. Every hitter has gone to s*** with this new ball, and it’s clearly mental
The Yanks have the rotation and pen to be dangerous in the playoffs. A simple investment in the offense (a CFer and a LFer) would make this team very dangerous. But with $4 mil left on the budget, they’re not getting either of those spots fixed. It seems like the FO is okay punting a season and that’s concerning to me. If that’s the case, id rather Stein sell to someone willing to make a major investment and not worry about the financials
