The Yankees Need To Give This Star A Shot At Redemption!

Monday, March 10, 2025 9:25

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

We aren’t playing games that matter yet….and we are already in trouble. There’s no silver lining here, folks. Missing time from Luis Gil AND Gerrit Cole (especially Cole) is BAD news. With any luck, we should get some news on Cole today….but even if it is the best case scenario, the Yankees are not out of the danger zone just yet.

I said last week, some MLB insiders say the Yankees won’t make the playoffs, you can check that out HERE. I laughed it off, because I love when the Yankees are underestimated and the Yankees made improvements to the roster so it felt silly to just write them off. Here we are not even a week later and I feel uneasy. If the worse case scenario shakes out and Cole needs Tommy John surgery the pitching staff suddenly looks scarier, because we are going to need to rely on Marcus Stroman even more than we already are right now.I’m just not okay with that idea. Not even for a nanosecond. The reigning American League champions can’t go down this path and expect to get back to a World Series. We need back up. We already talked about both of these guys but we need either Sandy Alcantara or Trevor Bauer. At this point everyone already knows the Yankees will be desperate so Miami will ask for a king’s ransom for him. Bauer on the other hand….well assuming his current contract in Japan can be worked out, that is cheaper.

When Bauer was in the thick of it I didn’t weigh in on his situation. Now that his legal battle is behind him I am just annoyed with MLB. He’s been black balled, and considering how generous they have been with their second chances for others, I am tired of the hypocrisy and it’s time Bauer gets his redemption. If the star players in the ASSTROS cheating scandal can get a pass, and even leadership behind the scenes can too, then Bauer should too.

And he’s ready. My X feed went crazy with this.

Obviously, we can’t get him for $0 but league minimum is $760,000. That is pocket change for Hal Steinbrenner, regardless of how high payroll already is. At that amount, he’s the added security we need because we can’t rely on anyone else (especially Stroman) to get back to the World Series if Cole is out. That’s a dumb risk to take for pocket change and he’s getting a second opinion on Tommy John surgery…..so I’m not feeling optimistic about this.

Brian Cashman said “we’ll do what we have to do” but if he doesn’t add some proven pitching depth to this team, then he’s not doing what promises. We need a proven pitcher, and Bauer is still dominant. He proved that by pitching well in Mexico and Japan (and Japan isn’t an easy league to pitch in) so someone needs to give this guy another chance in MLB. It might as well be us!

I want another championship, it’s as simple as that. If cheaters that disgraced the integrity of the game can be “forgiven” and gifted a second chance then so can Bauer, PERIOD. Hal and Cashman need to pull their heads out of their butts and make it happen!

MAKE THE CALL!
