Man, trading all those guys would go a long way in restocking the farm system.
KK
Turner
IKF
Jansen
Kikuchi
Yimi
and possibly Bo/Vlad
Gotta think our farm could jump up like 10-15 spots in the rankings by making those moves. Tempting.
The 2016 team was not great, barely made the PS but they did make it to the ALCS which was nice.
2015 was clearly the best team since the 90s. 2021 team is probably a close 2nd.
The 2021-2023 teams were better than the 2016 team IMO
This is not a given, he has little to no experience there so he’d be having to learn a new position basically. Probably better off just keeping him at SS and playing IKF at 2nd
That’s crazy! I was told there was no way Atkins could have improved the offense this season. Idk how the Yankees managed to find a hidden gem like Soto
The fact they did nothing this offseason to bolster the offense doesn’t leave me with much confidence in Atkins.
Best thing for this team long-term would be to miss the playoffs. Hopefully Shapiro fires Atkins and brings in a new GM to rebuild. Vlad and/or Bo could still fetch a decent return in the offseason
Yeah its pretty obvious that Atkins would be against trading Bo/Vlad. That would be an admission that we need to start a rebuild and he’d be losing his job.
