The “fan with sources” rumored offer is:

Oswald Peraza, Everson Pereira, Luke Voit, Yoendrys Gomez, money

Which would be fair for Oakland (1B not a premium position and they can’t afford his salary rn or to extend him in 2 years) and a steal for the Yankees (not giving up Jasson/Volpe or Gil/Medina)

Yankees minor league system had a great year. Now is a good time to capitalize. But we shouldn't need to give up any of the prospects you mentioned for a 1st baseman.

The other rumor that was making the rounds yesterday was Gleyber and Voit for Olson.

Considering the A's stated goal is to slash payroll and they don't expect to be contenders, I'd be surprised in terms of them taking back Voit or being interested in that.

Yeah, I think Voit is projected at around $5M this year. Doesn’t quite align with full tank, but he would be pretty good value if they’re try to keep the team competitive

TBH I didn't realize Voit could come so cheap. A's could always flip him for assets, though his market was pretty cool from what I understand when Cash tried moving him at the deadline. But there are some teams who position themselves as contenders that could definitely use Luke. Brewers jump off the page in that regard.

This

From hated queynte to beloved Rougie

Hated quenyte maybe to a fan of the showboatin' Toronto Bat-flippers but asshat me thought it was great  ; )

Odor's problem was that he didn't shake off his glove to free up his left hand as he sucker punched Bautista - he could've followed up his right with a left hook as Bautista's noggin was just hanging there for the taking.

Rougie was fun to watch as a personality, but the only reason they signed him was because they didn't have to really pay him, and he performed to expectations (which were low).

You also hate Rougned Odor until you decided you love him despite him being a freaking queynte, so I'm sure you'll get over it.

I literally said if he plays well I'm sure I'll love him.

I'd just prefer to never have the chance.

He’s still $Free.99 next season

Mark Feinsand: “The Yankees are in the market for a shortstop, but the belief within the industry is that they prefer Corey Seager, whose left-handed bat would be a better fit than Correa in their lineup.”

For Alio

My opinion, any Correa/Seager speculation at this point is BS. I think they’d gladly sign either of them, and with the other moves the Yankees seemingly will have to make, contract AAV and structure will be a huge factor. They could have a 1A and 1B but I doubt they’re out on either of them.

I liked Wade. But if they pick up a SS and 1B, DJ will be a super-utility guy.
