Just call me dealing Josh Dipoto lol. I pretty much have just gone the route of using trades to build my roster especially since free agency is typically way overpriced and drafts you never know what you're going to get. So with that, Yankees send 2024 amateur pick 1.12 6.12 and 8.12 SP Jedixson Paez SP Ricky Karcher For 1B Blaze Jordan 2021 SP Taijuan Walker $15,410,000 2024 Pirates retain 12 million. Yankees accept, considering I'm working on another trade go figure that will cost me a starting pitcher I figured I better replace it if I could. I'm a huge blaze Jordan fan and really think the kid can just mash a baseball. And if none of my trades work out on these one year deals and I'm not in contention around draft time I can always trade some of these expiring contracts to recoup some of my pics. Thanks for the easy deal Pittsburgh. That was probably the easiest negotiation ever lol.

Pirates confirm. I’m a Red Sox fan, so a little hard to part with Blaze, but I see him as “flawed, but fun prospect”. Ultimately, think he will be blocked behind Casas, Devers, Yoshida long term. Probably someone I’d have a 3rd round grade on if he was coming out of college in next years draft, so I like the value of dealing an expiring contract to trade up, especially when you Account for all the throw-ins. Yankees get a good rental at a now very reasonable contract.
