Well, I can promise you this. Within the next two hours, there will be news around the New York

Yankees. Either the Yankees have decided we want to keep Garrett Cole for the next five years,

and we are going to override Garrett Cole's opt-out from over the weekend and essentially

sign him to a five-year $180 million contract. Or the Yankees are going to say,

you know what, Scott Boris?

You big shot you?

We don't think you can get five years 180.

So go to free agency.

Have fun.

Now that'll create a lot of questions concerning the Yankee offseason.

But that's the decision the Yankees have to make before 5 o'clock today.

We have assumed for a long time that the Yankees would clearly just accept tacking on an

extra year and making it a five-year contract.

A couple weeks ago, actually it was a couple months ago, is at Fanatics Fest.

We had a discussion about this in which I made the case that the only way you would let Cole

go is if Hal Starreyer has to make a financial

decision between Juan Soto and Garrett Cole. And my answer to that is, how? You want to own

the New York Yankees? I'm sorry, pal. You don't make decisions between the two of them. You make

sure the two of them are on your team. Right. You get both. You get both.

The only way, I mean, would he dare Gary Cole?

Because he's not getting the deal that he has.

You don't think he gets $5.180,000 in the open market?
