    Last day of Francesca. Haven't been a regular listener in probably 8 years or so, but obviously a staple.  Always been a fan.
    Old, dated, doesn't know shit.  Can't believe you like him...
    Eh, I don't listen to sports talk radio at all anymore. Michael Kay for Yanks interviews pretty much only.  I get a kick out of Francesca.

    Yanks better not give up Fraizer and Adams for Cole. They won't, they better not.

    Yeah, lets hope the Pirates just give him away for a bag of batting practice balls.

    I'd be willing to throw in some fungo bats.

    I am fine with giving up Frazier in that deal, but not both. Not for a pitcher that needs a lot of work but has high upside.

    Doesn't know shit?!  come on bro, you might not like the guy but you have to admit he's a walking sports encyclopedia.  
    I've listened to him for the past 20 years and was definitely sad to hear him sign off.
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......

    You didn't hear him screwing up a bunch the last few years? 

    Eh, whatever.  Between him and Lupica I don't know who I couldn't stand more.

    As a long time Yankees fan, it sure will be a lot of fun watching all the home runs hit to that right field porch. That being said, I do worry a bit that the addition of Stanton is will cause the admittedly small advancement in playing small ball that were made late last season to regress.

    There are some questions regarding their starting pitching, their bullpen on the other hand is one of the leagues best, but resigning CC was a great move as he is a clubhouse leader. Potential future starters Chance Adams and Justus Sheffield are hopefully going to get lots of looks in Spring Training.

    All in all, I think 2018 will be one fun season for Yankees fans.
    I’ve seen Pearl Jam 25 times, Eddie Vedder 9 times, and Brad once.

    yea small ball is going to be extinct. they don't want to give up outs. that's the money ball analytics sabermetrics way. It's going to be go big or strike out.That's why they don't mind that a hitter hits .240 and has 200K. As long as he can hit 30hr and drive in 120+

    Would anything less than a World Series appearance be disappointing for the 2018 season?

    Not a fan of these Cole rumors.  Obviously not giving up Torres, but regardless, I feel it's gonna be too much for an unknown.

    We don't know if Torres is overhyped or not. But I don't want that trade to happen. Didn't Cole turn us down when we drafted him?

    Nah, they'll never do Torres for cole. Yeah, they drafted him but he went to school.
