Awesome trade for Yankees. Gave up no one of consequence AND dumped Clippard.

Clint-Hicks-Judge is the OF of the future anyway. And they still have Florial as a top raw prospect OF.

As a White Sox fan it seems like an okay deal but losing Kanhle sucks. Getting anything at all for Frazier is a plus. Good riddance! Roberston had to go. I know nothing about the prospects but apparently seem reasonable. If we would have taken Kanhle/Clippard out of the equation I would have liked it more.

Moar prospects! But I am guessing they are done unless somebody wants Melky. Or maybe somebody really desperate wants Holland or Shields. I wouldn't expect much in return

Ok...but you can make the same argument the other way too for Blake Rutherford. If he's not in the big picture no reason to keep him. Here's what we know; Gardy is here until he isn't, Judge is here hopefully forever, Ellsbury is here too and we all wish he wasn't, Clint Frazier is here and is already showing signs that the hype around him is real. Bryce Harper, in pinstripes 2018, not real but is more of a possibility to be real than Rutherford is to be coming up to be a major contribution in 18, or 19-20 for that matter.

Just to amend my $$$ comment not saying it's an awful trade if the Yanks pick up all of the money I just as well prefer them not pick it all up. Then again Randy Levine does have the money printing press in his office still so $$$ is whatever I suppose.

Agreed on Chapy and Dellin but I never thought for one second they were gonna hit the skids for good. They slump, it happens. Love Kahnle too but to put things in perspective D-Ro doesn't have to be D-Ro of old he just needs to be better than Clippard in the 7th...I don't think that's too much to ask and well within his capability to handle.

100% agree and as I said before at worse Clippard vs Frazier is a wash, at best Clippard is still HIV on a stick (-0.1 WAR currently) and Frazier (1.6 WAR currently...not sure if that's a typo or not) contributes significantly for about a quarter of the games left and sucks for the rest.

They still need a SP though...Sonny Gray possibly???

I think people underestimate how location can impact performance. Frazier grew up a Yankee fan, and I think he is going to have a tremendous end to the season in NY.

LOL.

Frazier - career war of 20.5 in 892 games. 0.023 WAR per game.

Bryant - 16.7 WAR in 392 games. 0.042 WAR per game.

Erm.....

*edit*

Obvs trolling. I am a moron.

Got heem

The Red Sox have played 58 innings in four days.

I don't think playing a super long game ****s up a team for a season like some in here do, but even I think this can't be very good for a team.

The Yankees have played 61 in 5 days since the break too, so we are sharing the load
