Yankees should sign all three tbqhb. They can do a meme outfield of Gordon in LF, Cespedes in CF, and Upton in RF.
Then, they trade Gardner for who the fuck knows what.
Then, they also trade Ellsbury for who the fuck knows what.
Then, they realize that Beltran is old and just let him die during the season.
This would give the Yankmemes a team of:
C McCann
1B Texiera
2B Castro
SS Gregorius
3B Headley
LF Gordon
CF Cespedes
RF Upton
DH A-Rod

When the DBacks traded Justin Upton to the Braves, they got back all of Nick Ahmed, Randall Delgado, Brandon Drury, Martin Prado, and Zeke Spruill.
When the DBacks traded for Shelby Miller of the Braves, they gave away all of Ender Inciarte, Aaron Blair, and Dansby Swanson.

The entire AL West is a babby division. Literally any team could win it by being barely above .500. I went with Mariners because of the get.
Dbags are also going to be a really good team next year while the Pie Rats and Cards aren't going to be as dominant.
>>64326381

This team had a 56 year WS drought, almost moved twice, and is obsessed with a team in its state that has won nearly twice has many rings as they have in that state
Can anyone guess that team?
>>64327248
I think its the same team that's won 3 rings since 2010 while it's rival outspent the Yankees and failed to even get a pennant, isn't it?
>>64327339
>rival
One way rivalry, my friend
>>64327248
Literally nobody cares about a drought after it's broken besides spic angeles "fans". Who even brings up the Red Sox or White Sox droughts anymore? But you know which team has spent more than any other team in history to not even win a pennant in almost 3 decades?

If the White Sox sign Cespedes or Upton then I think we can all agree that they'll have won the offseason again.
Which basically means another AL Central basement finish.

Do you not know how stacked the red sox system is?!

Not as much as the Yankees, iirc

>>64319391
Is Ichiro HOF without 3000 hits?
>>64320654
?
Why does it matter?
I thought with the Dodgers, money is not an issue.
>>64328729
Easy first ballot imo.
The fact that he has an outside shot at 3K hits when he didn't even come to MLB until he was 27 I believe is fucking insane. Imagine if he had started his career here. He easily surpasses Rose.
>>64328668
>His team didn't produce Dean Anna
>>64328791

Nevermind. Just looked. He's 65 shy. He gets it.
>>64326381
>mariners
they'll be lucky to edge into the second wc by the tips of their dicks, al west looks tough next yr desu
>>64328809
Ichiro has the same amount of hits as Barry Bonds and look at how he has fared in HOF voting.
http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/b/bondsba01.shtml
soon.
>>64328850
>Barry
Maybe you haven't been exposed to it down under (don't know how) but the absence of Bonds in the HoF isn't because of his numbers, its because everyone thinks hes a massive cheater (which is a whole other topic). Barry's numbers are some of, if not the best overall numbers ever.
Ichiro doesn't have any controversies to deal with. He's in easy.
>>64328850
Barry's fighting an uphill battle because of the "Cheating".
Ichiro is clear sailing.
>>64328883

>>64326839
who /nervous/ here? I feel like dipoto is banking on too many players to bounce back after a down year, but I don't think he really had any other options when he came in. They probably won't be total shit but they won't be amazing either, though some consistency will be nice and hopefully that's enough to make it to the post-season.
>>64328365
What did they do this off season aside from obtaining Frazier?
>>64329087

>>64329490
He might've been able to, but it's hard to tell
>inb4 4000 hits
If we count the hits he got in Japan, we might as well count minor league stats too
>>64328668
>>64328802
I honestly miss him. Surely he could have been better than Stephen Drew?
I don't see anyone breaking Pete Rose's record anytime soon.
>>64329546
No, Ichiro hasn't even hit 3000 yet

Without a doubt
>>64329725
>can't even win an MVP
lolno
Is this going to be the season hitters who get shifted on finally stat bunting more?
>>64329772
Not until the next generation of hitters who get brought up fighting shifts from the start. Only the ones who learn to beat it will make it
>>64329571
I'm probably better than Drew desu
>>64329672
I still think that Jeter could've done it if he hadn't gotten hurt. I don't know about Trout though. Assuming he keeps this pace, he'd have to play a hair over 23 seasons just to tie the record.
>>64329772
Yeah I feel its going to happen more often but not a loty. Its fun

It's against the rules to argue balls and strikes. I don't think he should've been ejected for that though, he wasn't confrontational about it.
>>64329794
He has a shot. He is two years in front of Rose in hits, considering his talent and late career DHing in New York, I think he can do it.

>>64330291

>>64330404
If you add the beginning of next season to the end of 1994 and treat it as a single 162-game season, he would've hit over .400.
So yes, he could've done it.
>>64330567
Because it's a shit division. The only reason that it's not the worst in baseball is that the NLE has a team in the midst of a spectacular collapse, two in full rebuild mode, and one that is run by a guy who doesn't even want to win.

Defense and bullpen should be decent too. I don't want to check, but they were probably dead last in those last year it felt. I'll miss Brad, but honestly I didn't think there was anyway they were fielding a competitive team on paper this year.
>>64333030
Nothing, they just wont be good enough.
I look forward to the shitfest following their elimination.
Tell me how the Giants are better than the Dodgers
>>64333177

>>64333841
Only insecure doyerfags give a shit.
>>64326802
I'm a Tribe fan. Cleveland will be lucky to make the WC. I only say that because of the holes in the OF and 3B. In the OF, all they have is Brantley, unless Lonnie has a big year. In CF, Abraham Almonte? No thanks. At 3B, it's a platoon led by Urshela. I like him, and he's going to be a good one in the future, but he doesn't have a great bat. The big hurdle the team has to overcome, once again, is offense. Their pitching staff as a whole is one of the best in the MLB. Their hitting last year was shit-tier. I think they led the majors in runners left on base. It's sad when you have multiple starters throw 13-18 K's a game, and you still lose 1-0

The Dodgers should actually do whatever it takes to sign Lincecum. Spoil SF's party plans for bringing back a beloved player for cheap and smear that filthy doyer stench all over him to taint his fan favorite legacy.
That's all the Dodgers are about these days anyway, trying and failing to ruin the fun for Giants fans.

They win the rights to negotiate but he decides to go back to Japan. Next year, he goes to the Giants.
I wish there was some kind of meme-league for indoor baseball, kind of like what the Arena Football League is to the NFL, but specifically to fill the gap between the WS and spring training. Maybe something with a smaller field and aluminum bats or even professional whiffle ball.

OF has some problems, but I think it's patched up good enough until some prospects arrive to help. They're the best in our system and not far off. I disagree about Gio. He was hitting pretty good until some nagging injuries hit. He's got an incredible glove and I think healthy his bat will be fine.
