All the talk around the Mets has actually kind of laid off Brian Cashman a little bit where he hasn't faced that much heat.

Because here we are in the middle of December and the Yankees have done very, very little.

They did bring back Ahmed Rosario a couple of days ago.

They did lose Devin Williams.

Obviously, Trent Grisham at the beginning of this offseason.

And so really the Yankees still have a lot of work to do.

And here's the way I figure.

They have about $20 to $25 million to spend.

If we assume they are not going to blow past their payroll of a year ago,

and we also assume that they're not drastically cutting payroll.

Right.

So I'm going to take that assumption that they're doing neither.

They have about $20 to $25 million to spend.

And while signing Michael King or adding a pitcher, there's nothing wrong with that because

pitching is good and you never have enough pitching.

The lineup to me needs to be the priority for more than the obvious. It's more than just

if they lose Cody Bellinger, how do you replace him? It's also Aaron Judge had another historic

year last year. There's no guarantee he's going to do that again. So how do you maintain,

I'm not even saying get better because the Yankees had the best offense in baseball last year.

How do you maintain that offense when you're going to lose Cody Bellinger,

probably get a little bit less production out of Trent Grisham,

jazz chisham they're listening on, like offense to me, if I only have 20 to 25 mil to spend,
