I'm not sure what the Yankees were thinking here.

I don't like this move with Marcus Stroman.

There was history in New York.

There's stuff that's out there, you know, as far as the social media,

he goes, I get that he's a decent pitcher.

And even that, he fell off last year in the second half.

I've always liked Stroman as a pitcher and thought he's been underrated to a certain extent,

BT.

I don't love this move for the Yanke.

I love this. And I might be the only one who loves this. This notion that Marcus

Stroman is going to destroy the Yankees might be the dumbest thing I've heard all day.

Number one, can we chalk up the fact that, I don't know, like you and like me, people

mature. I mean, let's start with that. Number two, he always wanted to be a Yankee.

Right.

And number three, well, there's actually two more.

Number three, I believe in the Yankees' culture.

Like, I believe in Aaron Boone's ability to keep a clubhouse together.

I believe in Aaron Judge's ability to command enough respect for that locker room to stay together.

Same with Garrett Cole.

And, you know, let's also, let's direct the energy, the first part, at the proper target.
