2022 Yankees

Yankees really emptying out the prospect pool, although none of the top 6 are traded. Can't imagine there will be any other deals of substance at this point.

Wow, didn’t have to give up any of their minor league shortstops. Gonna miss Sears but needed a good starter which Sears might be in the future. Waldichuk was moving quickly up the ladder this year and was in Triple A.

Really donkt know anything about the reliever but as pointed out by SJU61982, that ERA is down right ugly

Looks like an excellent trade. Got a starter definitely needed and a reliever

Checked out Trivino stats. Had two bad outings very June and early May which destroyed his era In July 12 appearances gave up runs 4 times. 1, 2,2 and 1 runs

More about Effros.

They traded one of their better pitching prospects but get a guy who stats look pretty good, is still south of 30 and you have control over him for as he doesn't hit arbitration for at least another season. Definitely needed the bullpen help. I still would like to see them get Robertson.

I am afraid Schmidt will get sent back down to make room.

Not sure if it was mentioned but Effros has like 5 years of team control supposedly.

I also hate how Schmidt has been getting yo yo'ed back and forth. But I guess he's one of the few with options.

Not sure I like adding Luis Trivino to this deal. A couple of reasons:

1. In general, I don't like trading for other teams' closers, and expecting them to be setup men when they arrive here. Yes, there are instances where it has worked, but more often then not, it doesn't, especially when the move is done in season

and:

2. He's not that good. I know that reliever ERA's can be deceiving, but 6 and a half is a lot. And, he's been healthy all year, so it can't just be one bad outing.

Good win after the disappointing loss yesterday. 4 homers for the good guys, but this game never was safe while German was in the game. The more I see Benetendi, the more I dislike him. His next hard hit ball will be his first as a Yankee. Really soft contact from him. And IKF continues with his throwing issues.

You are a “tad” hard to please 😇
 
game 104.
baby bombers blast mariners with bevy of ballantines.
yes mariners had depleted lineup.
yanks beat a playoff team.
i will take, in general, a proven pitcher over a minor league phenom.
again it was dj the spark plug and $99 the mvp.

Buy low and sell high...
Trivino's career era in the 4 years prior to this season is 3.70 in over 200 innings.

Also his 6+ era to date this year is in 32 innings. That's 23 earned runs so far. If that were 15 earned runs his era would be 4.20
That's 8 runs or 2-3 bad outings.

If his arm is healthy its a perfect time to acquire him. If he was having a typical year you would have to have given up a lot more to get the deal done.

Low cost/risk, high reward deal. Exactly what you look for as a GM. Smart move.

All good trades now pls d f a. Gallo
 
although waldichuk was high on the yankees list,
he was rated merely #70 prospect in all of the minors,
none of the other 3 minor leaguers the yanks traded were in the top 100 prospects.
 
Yanks with a pretty tough August schedule. After Seattle, they are at St. Louis, at Seattle and at Boston before home series against Rays, Blue Jays & Mets.

And then after that, a second trip to the West Coast (granted it's the Angels and Oakland, but it's still tough going out there twice, in such a short period of time).

I agree, that it's a brutal August schedule. The September/early October schedule is slightly more forgiving, but not by much.

That being said, the Marniers have been playing well, but it comes with an asterisk. Since July 2nd, they are 18-7. That record consists of going 1-6 vs. Houston, 0-1 vs. the Yankees, and 17-0 vs. everybody else. And you think we don't beat good teams...
