I like the move. I’m not too keen on Britton but he could bounce back. I wonder if they’re still in play for Ottavino from Colorado, I doubt it. I think they still try to get Kluber, and I wasn’t a Paxton fan either. I thought them giving up Sheffield for him was a mistake. But IF Paxton is healthy then he could be pretty good for us. Injury prone but maybe he’ll stay healthy.
Rumor is, yes, the Yankees are still in play for Ottavino as well. I heard the Yankees might hold on to Sonny Gray into the season. They're waiting to get a timeline on CC who underwent some type of heart surgery this offseason. If he's delayed in beginning the season, the Yankees may hold on to Gray and trade him during the season. I've also heard they may just pitch him (Gray) on the road as his numbers were drastically better last year away from Yankee Stadium. Glad the Yankees aren't in a rush to trade him and flip him for nothing. Hopefully the patience pays off!
