The extension of Bogaerts might be the only thing Dombrowski did right all year. If Sale turns it around next year, that will be two. But if Sale continues to pitch like this, Dombrowski will have Tigered this team faster than I thought he could.,,

With no August deadline, will that be a thing this year?

Cora is a second year manager. Mistakes are to be expected. Dombrowski has been an MLB GM for over 25 years and a front office executive for over 40 years. He should know by now what he is doing...

https://www.fangraphs.com/prospects/the-board/2019-in-season-prospect-list?sort=-1,1 Deivi Garcia at 61 was withheld for Stroman. #35 Jesus Sanchez was dealt for Trevor Richards and a 29yo rookie

ONE major outlet. ONE!!!! Not EVERY major outlet, as you claimed. What’s your next step? Discredit MLB.com and Fangraphs while hyping BP as the one true source? You do know the attrition rate of prospects, right? Chances are stacked against him anyway. He’s NOT an elite prospect and a better prospect was dealt for a lesser pitcher. The Yankees were offered a gift!! And you praise Cashman for walking away. Why? Because BP liked him more than everyone else? Or because you can’t fathom the Yankees trading their best prospect for anything less than a superstar?

When two of three list don’t put you in the top 60, you’re NOT an “elite level prospect.” The Sox best prospect is ranked 90-95 on most list. Mathematically, Garcia is as close or closer to Casas in the 90s than he is to the Top 25. Really it just looks like you want to hold him because he’s the best the Yankees have. But that alone doesn’t mean he’ll be any good. Let’s get real about Garcia. Jesus Sanchez is ranked ahead of him on MLB.com, and he was traded for Trevor Richards (who was removed from the Marlins’ rotation) and Nick Anderson, a rookie having a nice seaon, but also turned TWENTY NINE YEARS OLD last month. And yet lower-ranked Garcia isn’t worth 1.5 years of Stroman?

All I said was top 5 in ERA. No one said “top 5 pitcher” until you truncated my sentence, which is your error. As for him being top 5 in ERA, he is fifth in the American League. It’s actually true. And yes, I think Cashman made big mistake holding a borderline top 70 prospect as being more important than his team’s floundering season. And because Cashman made that poor decision, you’ll have a lot more time to extol the virtues of Deivi Garcia to me this October...
-
Tried that last year and couldn’t move him. The Sox might have to cut bait with Bradley this off-season. Personally I think the chances of non-tendering Bradley and using Castillo (of whom Dombrowski was not a fan at his tryout) are slim. But it might be the right move...
-
And in the right deal, I ship them out...
-
You said every list. Baseball Prospectus is not every list. MLB.com and Fangraphs both have him in the 61-70 range. Does anyone besides BP have him in the top 25?
-
He is top 5 in ERA
-
Baseball Prospectus did have him at 25. Fangraphs had him at 61. I don’t have and am not getting a subscription to Baseball America. Deivi Garcia not a consensus top 25 prospect. I found only one publication that had him in the top 60...
-
Maybe. But that’s not what Toronto wanted. And per MLB.com, Garcia is barely a Top 70 prospect. Top 70 is not grounds for being untouchable for a top MLB 5 pitcher in ERA who isn’t a rental...
-
Top 5 on every list? MLB.com had him at 66 on their mid season list...

Heart does. Head doesn’t..

Which the Yankees didn’t know they would do at the time. Bottom line is Garcia and Flovial aren’t even great prospects. It’s not like they wanted Gore and Urias. Neither Garcia nor Flovial was a pre-season Top 100 in BA, and Flovial is struggling at Round 2 of A ball. Like most prospects, he’s looking more and more like he won’t amount to much. So it was basically Garcia for Stroman. How is that a deal you pass on?
-
Apparently this has been covered. But it was a mistake for Cashman to not pull the trigger if this was the case...
-
Reportedly Toronto wanted Deivi Garcia and Estevan Florial for Stroman. Did the Yankees think Stroman should cost less?
-
I can’t believe someone wanted the Sox bullpen pieces...
