The groundwork has changed, you know, how much you can sign in the worldwide market, the slotting systems. So although you won’t be seeing Beltran launching bombs into the short porch in right anymore, or Aroldis firing 100 miles per hour fastballs, soon enough you’ll be seeing a young and talented squad that should eventually get back into World Series contention. As the Yankees try to repair him, this can go one of two ways: The Rangers gave up on him too soon and the Yankees fix him, or the Rangers knew he was beyond saving and unloaded him before his value dropped any lower. Dillon Tate, acquired for Carlos Beltran, will require an especially wide berth when it comes to fan expectations because right now he’s a complete mess.

The Yankees needed to completely overhaul a team that was a mess. They’re gonna be motivated and play off each other.
“I think this is what this organization has been about”. We do see some things that we want to start working with him on, so we’re going to take him out of the rotation and put him in the pen for a period of time.
Like Chapman, Beltran is on the a year ago of his deal. He may take on the same role behind Chapman, the 100-mph flamethrower looking to hit the free agent market with a World Series title on his resume. I don’t watch the playoffs if we’re not in it. With the addition of these prospects, they’ve positioned themselves – when ready – to be able to trade for an elite player like Chris Sale or Chris Archer instead of signing another underwhelming player to an overwhelming contract. Beltran and Cashman discussed the possibility extensively on Sunday, Cashman said, adding that the general manager even apologized for not surrounding him with a winning product this year. “Obviously when Andrew (Miller) was traded yesterday, we felt that anything was possible. It’s a chance for some young players to step up and show what they can do”. He also has an average of 64 RBI which could help the Red Sox once the trade is made official. “I believe that you can win”.
I think as a player, you know that this moment could happen. Uehara, who assumed closing duties for Kimbrel, has been on the disabled list since July 20 with a right pectoral strain. “The other guys have got to pick it up”. NY also got 22-year-old right-hander Dillon Tate (No. 11) from the Rangers in Monday’s Carlos Beltran deal with the Rangers and 21-year-old outfielder Billy McKinney (No. 16) as part of the Chapman trade.
Tate, 22, joins the RiverDogs after making 17 appearances mostly as a starter with the Crawdads, accruing a 3-3 record with a 5.12 ERA. Only time will tell if the prospects they got in return will pan out and make Cashman look like a genius but as of right now the Yankees were a big victor on Monday they took an already rising farm system and turned it into one of the best in baseball adding guys like Frazier, Torres, Tate and others they can either keep these guys and develop them or they could be used as trade bait to possibly bring in an ace like Chris Sale Cashman now has a ton of options. Following the 2015 season, the Claremont, Calif., native was ranked by the publication as baseball’s 69th-best prospect. Green is 2-2 with a 4.98 ERA (19 ER/34.1 IP) in 7 starts with short-season Spokane, his third professional season.
RHP Erik Swanson Eighth-round pick in 2014. Under contract through 2018, it was tougher to stomach the blow of Miller leaving NY seeing as though he could have anchored the bullpen with Dellin Betances for at least the new couple of years. Frazier is the Bryce Harper type of player that the Yankees have long coveted.

Beltran signed a $45 million, three-year contract before the 2014 season, but played with an elbow bone spur during much of his first season in NY and got off to a slow start in 2015 following surgery.
